CONTROLDATASETS: Displaying control data set space-use information

Explanation: CONTROLDATASETS is an optional parameter requesting a list of the space-use information for the MCDS, BCDS, OCDS, and journal data set. The list consists of the following information:
  • The serialization technique being used.
  • The total space in each data set.
  • The percentage of the total occupied space in each data set to the extent that DFSMShsm can determine it.
  • The threshold percentage value currently assigned for each data set. When this threshold is exceeded, DFSMShsm sends warning messages to the operator.
  • The key boundaries of multicluster data sets.

Defaults: None.

Note: Information for the JOURNAL data set is based on the last journal update on the host that the QUERY command is entered on. The actual value can be affected by updates made on other hosts.
