Access Z/OS System A Dataset list from Z/O System B??

Post by phaniyelugula » Fri Jan 24, 2014 12:50 pm

Hi All,

I know its weird, But still trying..

Is there any possibility to access system "A" dataset list from System "B"..??

The actual requirement is to compare "XXX.YYY.ZZZ" PDS members list in system A with "AAA.BBB.CCC" PDS members list in system B.

So i was thinking, if it is possible to access System B from System A with REXX or JCL..

or Is there any other way to do it?

Please help me out..

Thanks.

If they are on shared dasd and the dasd is online to both systems then the answer is yes. Otherwise you will have to copy one dataset to the other machine.

the best place to ask this question is not in a forum (because nobody here knows your setup) but your own storage group (because they do know your setup).
Regards
Nic
