Partially Qualifying Data Set Names z/OS DFSMS Using the Interactive Storage Management Facility SC23-6856-00 |
|
To qualify data set names, use asterisks and percent signs as global file-name
characters within a qualifier:
For example, when you specify the following partial data set name, ISMF
selects data sets with any number of qualifiers:
The first qualifier must be SYS1. The other qualifiers can be anything.
ISMF could select the following data sets: SYS1.TEST.TEST, SYS1.LIST.XMP,
SYS1.MEMO.EMPL.A.You can use and mix several global file-name characters to qualify data
sets. For example:
In the
first qualifier, SYS*%, the percent sign means that there must be at least
one character after the letters SYS. In the second qualifier, B*%%%%%, the
five percent signs mean that there must be at least five characters after
the letter B. The asterisk between the letter B and the first percent sign
indicates that zero or more characters can be inserted in this position. |
