Viewing the data sets allocated on a volume

To view the data sets allocated on a volume:

Procedure

  1. Specify D next to a volume on the System Setup Information panel.

    Because IMS Recovery Expert does not save individual data set information in its repository, this command might require you to reanalyze the system if you have not performed a recent analysis. You are not required to perform the analysis, but IMS Recovery Expert will not be able to display information about the data sets' tracks, volume, or data type.

     BSY$SSRX                                               
       This command requires a current analysis to show     
       which data sets are in use by this IMS.  If you do    
       not perform the analysis, all data sets will still    
       be shown but will have a status of "N/A".  Do you    
       want to perform the analysis now?       N
    

  2. Press Enter.
  3. Optional: If analysis is needed, specify Y on the Re-Analyze System panel and press Enter. After analysis (or if the data was sufficiently up to date), the Volume Dataset List Display panel is displayed.

    The following fields are displayed on this panel:

    System/Group
    The IMS subsystem or group being analyzed.
    Volume Serial
    The volume serial number being analyzed.
    Free Trks
    The number of tracks free on the volume.
    IMS Data Trks
    The number of tracks being used by IMS database data sets for the specified IMS environment.
    IMS Log Trks
    The number of tracks being used by IMS log and system data sets for the specified IMS environment.

    The remainder of the panel lists the data sets on the volume. IMS data sets related to the selected IMS environment are shown in ISPF default color blue. Non IMS data sets are highlighted in the ISPF default color turquoise. Your colors might be displayed differently if you have changed your ISPF default colors.

    Dataset Name
    The data set name.
    Tracks
    The number of tracks allocated by the data set on the displayed volume.
    IMS
    The value in this column is set to Yes if the data set is an IMS data set for the selected IMS environment.
    Logs
    The value in this column is set to Yes if the data set is an IMS active or archive log data set for the selected IMS environment.
    Data
    The value in this column is set to Yes if the data set is an IMS database data set for the selected IMS environment.
