Is there any tool or command that can help me find what are the input/output files that are used in a cobol program?(Without reading the COBOL program of course)
Can Grep be used in Mainframes for search?(Someone had told me it can be, but I have no clue whether thats true) If yes, how?
Thanks!

Let me rephrase the question.
Is there any tool in mainframes that helps in finding the JCLs, Databases and files(VSAM/seq) as Input or output that are used in a COBOL program or maybe a set of COBOL programs?
My purpose is to trace the overall flow/working of the final software which uses these cobol program.
