z/OS UNIX directory list utility (option 3.17)

The z/OS® UNIX Directory List Utility (option 3.17) supports processing of directories and files in a z/OS UNIX directory structure. When you select this option, the z/OS UNIX Directory List Utility panel (ISRUULP) is displayed.

The layout and options of the Directory List Utility are similar to those in the Data Set List Utility (ISPF option 3.4). You can either display the directory list under the specified path name for further processing, or print the directory list to the ISPF list data set.

 When the directory list is displayed, enter either:
   "/" on the directory list line command field for the command prompt pop-up,
   an ISPF line command, the name of a TSO command, CLIST, or REXX exec, or
   "=" to execute the previous command.

Note: When the z/OS UNIX Directory List Utility panel is first displayed, a message is displayed showing the time zone that is used to calculate the date and time values displayed in the directory list. The time zone value is obtained from the z/OS UNIX TZ environment variable. If a value for the TZ environment value is not found in the system-wide /etc/profile file or the user's .profile file, the utility calculates displayed date and time values using the operating system GMT offset.
