Library and data set list utility line commands

z/OS ISPF User's Guide Vol I
SC19-3627-00

On member list displays for the Library utility (option 3.1) and the Data Set List utility (option 3.4), you can enter these line commands at the beginning of a line, ahead of one or more member names:

B
Browse the member
C
Copy the member
D
Delete the member
E
Edit the member
I
Data set information
G
Reset the member
J
Submit the member
M
Move the member
P
Print the member
R
Rename the member
T
TSO command
V
View the member
W
WS command
=
Repeat last command
Note:
  1. Member lists displayed with the M line command have a 9-character line command field to accommodate TSO commands, CLISTs, and REXX EXECs. For more information, see the topics "M-Display Member List" and "TSO Commands, CLISTs, and REXX EXECs" in the Data Set List Utility (Option 3.4) section of the z/OS ISPF User's Guide Vol II.

    Any data in the prompt field is passed as an argument to any TSO command, CLIST or REXX EXEC. When the '=' command is used the previous prompt data is also passed. Any prompt data that starts with '*' is ignored.

  2. Where the member to be deleted by the D line command is the name of a primary member, the primary name and all associated alias names are deleted. Where the member is an alias member, only the alias name and its directory entry are deleted.
  3. When you use the R line command, enter the new member name in the Prompt field to the right of the member name.
  4. Where the data set refers to a partitioned data set load library (RECFM=U), and the member to be renamed is the name of an primary member, the user data component of any associated alias names will be updated to refer to the renamed primary name.
  5. The Info command displays the same information as the member list. When extended line counts are available, this panel can be used to display the values. Otherwise these panel fields are blank.
When you press Enter, each member preceded by a line command is processed unless:
  • The V (view), B (browse), or E (edit) line command is followed by another line command. When you return to the member list after viewing, browsing, or editing a member, you must press Enter again to call any remaining line commands.
  • You enter a line command for a member that was deleted. The names of deleted members are not removed from the member list until it is updated. Remove the line command that precedes the deleted member, and press Enter again. See Updating a member list for more information.
  • You enter an R (rename) line command, but do not put a new name in the Prompt field. Enter a new member name, and press Enter again.
You can then perform one of these actions:
  • Enter additional primary or line commands
  • Scroll, if necessary, to bring additional members into view
  • Enter the END command to return to the previous panel.

The next two figures show before and after examples that print members TEST and TEST1, delete member TEST8, and rename member TEST4 to OLDTEST.
