Using DFSMSrmm ISPF dialog and RMM TSO subcommands

You can search on-line using either the DFSMSrmm ISPF dialog or RMM TSO subcommands to create lists of resources and display information recorded in the DFSMSrmm control data set. Here are some examples:

Operators can create lists of scratch volumes to be pulled for use.
Tape librarians and system programmers can create lists of software products and the volumes on which they reside.
General users can create lists of volumes they own, such as the example in Figure 1:

Figure 1. Example of a list of volumes owned by a single user

Volume Owner    Rack   Assigned   Expiration Location Dsets St Act   Dest.
                        date       date
 ------ -------- ------ ---------- ---------- -------- ----- -- ----- --------
 VOL600 AMYW01   RAC500 06/11/2000 11/11/2000 SHELF    0     UR SI
 VOL601 AMYW01   RAC501 06/11/2000 11/11/2000 SHELF    0     UR SI
 VOL603 AMYW01   RAC502 06/11/2000 11/11/2000 SHELF    0     UR SI

With DFSMSrmm, you can use the RMM TSO SEARCH subcommands with the CLIST operand to create a data set of executable subcommands. For example, you can create subcommands to confirm volume movement for volumes identified during a SEARCHVOLUME request.
