Short information for managed data sets

z/OS ISPF User's Guide Vol II
SC19-3628-00

The Library Utility option S displays information (Figure 1) for data sets that reside on Storage Management Subsystem volumes (also called managed data sets) when:
  • DFSMSdfp is installed and available
  • Storage Management Subsystem is active.
Figure 1. Data Set Information (Short) for Managed Data Sets (ISRUAISE)
This screen dump shows the Data Set Information
The major difference between this information and the information that is displayed for data sets on non-managed volumes is the addition of these classes:
  • Management class
  • Storage class
  • Data class
If the data set is a PDSE, the "Data set name type" field is LIBRARY. Because the used blocks and used extents are not applicable to a PDSE, the Data Set Information panel replaces these values with "Used pages" and "% Utilized" (Figure 2). Other values that can appear in the "Data set name type" field are:
  • HFS - MVS™ Hierarchical File System data set
  • EXTENDED - DFSMSdfp Striped data set. When the Data Set Name Type is EXTENDED, the SMS Compressible field indicates if the data set is compressible or not (YES or NO).
  • LARGE - Large format sequential data set
