The MEMBER primary command is used to search for a member name or pattern in all of the partitioned data sets in the data set list. It can be abbreviated as M or MEM. The parameters, X, EX, NX, RECALL1, and RECALL2 are optional. X and EX limit the search to excluded data sets. NX limits the search to non-excluded data sets. RECALL1 includes data sets migrated to DASD in the search. RECALL2 includes all migrated data sets in the search. Use this format:

>>-MEMBER--string----------------------------------------------->

>--+---------------------------------------------+-------------><
   '-X--+----+--+----+--+---------+--+---------+-'   
        '-EX-'  '-NX-'  '-RECALL1-'  '-RECALL2-'     

The data set list is scrolled so that the first data set containing the member or pattern is at the top of the list. The MEMBER command finds any occurrence of the specified member name or pattern within a partitioned data set.
