DESERV FUNC=GET_G retrieves generation data for a member of a PDSE that you provide. The directory entries are returned in system managed directory entry (SMDE) format with an SMDE_GENE extension defined in IGWSMDE. A generationname is a field composed of an 8-byte member name, followed by a 4-byte absolute generation number. An 8-byte member name should be passed on the first call. If there is not sufficient space to return all the data, the last generation return should be passed on subsequent calls.
GET_G works only for non-concatenated data sets.
The format of the DESERV FUNC=GET_G macro is:
