Use this field to tell ISPF which view of the data set list you
would like to see. ISPF retains the information you put in this field
and displays it the next time you use this panel.
All the scroll commands function normally from these displays,
except for the LEFT and RIGHT commands. These commands switch from
one view to another, because the panels used to show the different
views are connected as if they formed a ring. Each time you enter
the LEFT or RIGHT command, another view is displayed in the sequence
shown in Figure 1, starting from the current
view.
Figure 1. Sequence of data set list display
views
If you enter the RIGHT command with the Total view in the sequence
displayed, ISPF displays the Volume view. If you enter the LEFT command
with the Volume view displayed, ISPF displays the Total view. The
available views are:
- 1. Volume
- This
view shows a data set list that contains data set names and the volumes
on which they reside. Figure 1 shows
a typical data set list display using the Volume view.
- 2. Space
- The
Space view shows a data set list that contains data set names, tracks,
percentages used, extents, and devices. An additional header line,
displayed above the column headings and showing the total tracks of
all data sets, the total tracks of all non-excluded data sets, the
number of data sets listed and the number of non-excluded data sets
listed, is displayed if the Display Total Tracks option is selected. Figure 1 shows a typical data set list
display using the Space view with the Total Tracks header line.
- 3. Attrib
- This
view shows a data set list that contains data set names, data set
organizations, record formats, logical record lengths, and block sizes. Figure 2 shows a typical data set list
display using the Attributes view.
Note: For each of the views, the
list is sorted by data set name. See the list under
Figure 3 for descriptions of the fields
shown on this panel.
- 4. Total
- This
view shows a data set list that contains all the information displayed
by the Volume, Space, and Attributes views, plus the created and expired
or referred dates. (The Display Expiration Date option on the DSLIST
Settings of the options pull-down on the Data Set List utility (option
3.4) allows you to display either the expiration date or the referred
date of the data set.) The list is sorted by data set name and
has two lines per data set. Figure 3 shows
a typical data set list display using the Total view.
The catalog
name can also be displayed if the Display Catalog Name option is selected
and no value is entered into the Volume Serial field. If the Display
Catalog Name option is selected, three lines per data set are displayed. Figure 4 shows a typical data set list
display using the Total view with the Catalog name. See the list under
the figure for descriptions of the fields shown on this panel.
An
additional header line, displayed above the column headings and showing
the total tracks of all data sets, the total tracks of all non-excluded
datasets, the number of data sets listed, and the number of non-excluded
data sets listed, is displayed if the Display Total Tracks option
is selected.
