    1,2,6. These functions are not using the VOLSER parameter
    provided when obtaining the information for a data set.
    3. The wrong VOLSER parameter may be used when viewing a load
    module which has been invoked using the V prefix command.
    4. The volume specified on the function entry panel is not
    being passed to the Print Utility.
    5. The allocated input data set is being incorrectly freed.
    

Problem conclusion

  • 1. The DSI function will report details of the correct data set
    when the VOLSER paramater is provided.
    2. The correct extent information will be displayed for an
    uncatalogued data set (option 5.6).
    3. The correct load module will be displayed when viewed from a
    load module member selection list.
    4. If a volume number was supplied on the initial entry panel
    this volume number will be entered in the Print Utility panel
    Volume field.
    5 & 6. This problem has been corrected.
