VTOC TSO Command

'VOLUME-LIST'	A volume serial number or a list of volume serial numbers. If the first one to five characters of a volume serial number are entered, all volumes taht are mounted on the machine which start with those characters will be listed. If 'ALL' is specified, all non-virtual volumes which are online and ready will be processed. If 'ALV' is specified, all virtual volumes which are online and ready will be processed, if they are mounted PRIVATE/RESERVED or PRIVATE/RESIDENT.
LEVEL('DSNAME-START')	Specifies the high level qualifiers to be searched. This will not be prefixed by your USERID or prefix. Only datasets starting with these prefixes will be listed.
CONTAINING('DSNAME-STRING')	Specifies a character string contained in the dataset name. At least one of the strings must be in the DSName for the dataset to be listed. These strings must conform to DSName standards. They cannot begin with a period or a number.
ENDING('DSNAME-END')	Specifies the ending characters of the DSName. The final nonblank characters of the DSName must be one of these strings to allow the dataset to be listed. These strings must conform to DSName standards.
CAT	A locate is done for each DSName on the volumes listed and status is indicated. Note - this option uses a considerable amount of processing time. C - catalogued on this volume N - not catalogued W - catalogued on another volume E - catalog processing error
NOSORT	The datasets are not sorted. They are output as they are found.
SORT('SORT-FIELDS')	Datasets are sorted into alphabetical order, based upon the sort fields specified. DSNAME, VOLUME, ALLOC, USED, UNUSED, PCT, EX, DSO, RFM, LRECL, BLKSZ, CDATE, EXPDT, REFDT are valid sort fields. 'A/D' are required after each sort field to indicate ascending/descending sequence.
BREAK('BREAK-CHARS')	The listing will contain a new header (on a new page if the VTOCOUT DD card option is used), whenever the specified number of characters differs from the preceding dataset. This option functions only with the SORT option.
CHARS('CHARS-PER-LINE')	Specifies the number of characters on each line of output. The default is 150 for print and the LINESIZE of the terminal for TSO sessions. You can get more information by specifying a larger number of characters per line or you can limit the printing by setting a smaller number of characters per line of output.
LINES('LINES-PER-PAGE')	Specifies the number of lines before a new title line is produced. It defaults to 60 for print and to the screen size for TSO sessions.
NOHEADING	Do not produce a heading. The heading will only be output if the VTOCOUT DD statement is present.
HEADING('TEXT')	If a DD statement with a DDName of VTOCOUT is present, this text will be used to begin every page. Carriage control should be included (ASA). The default header consists of VTOC COMMAND VERSION 02 and the command that was entered.
DSNLEN('LENGTH')	Specifies the length of the DSName to print. The rest of the DSName is truncated. The CHARS parameter will also cause the DSName to be truncated, if the name and the preceding information exceeds the print line.
NOPRINT	Specifies that individual items are not to be listed. The command can be used to calculate totals from the selected datasets.
PRINT('PRINT-OP' ('PRINT-ITEM-LIST'))	Specifies the items to print. The 'PRINT-OP' is the operation to be done. They include the following: NEW - The 'PRINT-ITEM-LIST' is a complete list of what to print. REP - The first 'PRINT-ITEM' will be replaced with the rest of the items on the list. ADD - The rest of the 'PRINT-ITEM-LIST' will be added after the first item on the list. DEL - The items on the 'PRINT-ITEM-LIST' will not be printed. The 'PRINT-ITEM-LIST' names are the same keywords used in LIM, AND, and OR functions and are also the titles as printed. The ADD, DEL, and REP print operations refer to the default print list. The default list is ALLOC, UNUSED, PCT, EX, DSO, RFM, BLKSZ, LRECL, REFDT, CDATE, VOLUME, DSNAME, EXPDT, SECQ, SECT, ROUND, PASS, ACTION, and TYPE. As noted under CHARS above, only the items that will fit on the print line will be listed.
LIMIT('VALUE' 'OPER' 'KEYWORD')	Specifies which datasets are to be listed. Only datasets that satisfy the relation are listed.
'KEYWORD'	Is the name of a dataset field. The list of currently provided fields follows. The keywords and their values are the same as in teh VTOC output. ALLOC - dataset allocation, number of KILOBYTES, TRACKS, CYLINDERS, or MEGABYTES allocated. Default is KILOBYTES. UNUSED - amount of unused space in the dataset. Same units as in ALLOC. USED - amount of space used in the dataset. Same units as in ALLOC. PCT - percentage of space used in the dataset. EX - number of extents in the dataset. DSO - dataset organization - PS=sequential, PO=partitioned, VS=VSAM, IS=ISAM, DA=Direct Access, U=Unmoveable RFM - record format - F=fixed, V=variable, U=undefined, B=blocked, T=track overflow, S=spanned or standard, A=ASA carriage control, M=Machine carriage control BLKSZ - blocksize for physical blocks of data LRECL - logical record length in bytes CDATE - create date in the form YYDDD, sometimes called Julian EXPDT - expiration date in the same form REFDT - last use date in the same form; this date is when the dataset was last opened SECT - type of allocation - A=absolute track, B=blocks, T=tracks, C=cylinders PASS - protection indicators - N=none, R=read and write protection, W=write protection ROUND - space rounded up to cylinders - R=round, N=no round CCHH - cylinder and head address, in 4 or 8 hexadecimal digits. If 4 digits are used, only the cylinder is used for comparison, otherwise, the CYL and TRACK are compared. VOLUME - volume serial or disk name DSNAME - name of the dataset ACTION - some error indications TYPE - reserved for exit usage
'OPER'	Is an operator. The list of operators follows: EQ - is equal to NE - is not equal to LE - is less than or equal to LT - is less than GE - is greater than or equal to GT - is greater than
'VALUE'	Gives the value of the item for comparison, such as FB, PS, R, or a number.
AND1('VALUE' 'OPER' 'KEYWORD')	Specifies which datasets are to be listed. Both the limit and this condition must be true to allow the listing.
OR1('VALUE' 'OPER' 'KEYWORD')	Specifies which datasets are to be listed. Either the limit or this condition must be true to allow the listing.
AND2('VALUE' 'OPER' 'KEYWORD')	Specifies which datasets are to be listed. Both the previous result and this condition must e true to allow the listing.
OR2('VALUE' 'OPER' 'KEYWORD')	Specifies which datasets are to be listed. Either the previous result or this condition must be true to allow the listing.
AND3('VALUE' 'OPER' 'KEYWORD')	Specifies which datasets are to be listed. Both the previous result and this condition must e true to allow the listing.
OR3('VALUE' 'OPER' 'KEYWORD')	Specifies which datasets are to be listed. Either the previous result or this condition must be true to allow the listing.
