DFSMShsm: Update applications that depend on LIST command output
Description
Beginning in z/OS V2R2, the output of the LIST DUMPCLASS command includes a new MINSTACK value, and the position of the existing STACK value in the output has changed. This new and changed output is displayed when OUTDATASET, SYSOUT (the default), or TERMINAL is specified as the destination for the output.
Beginning in z/OS V2R1, the output of the LIST DUMPCLASS command includes the value of the RECOVERRESET parameter. RECOVERRESET specifies whether the data-set-changed indicator in the VTOC entry is reset for all data sets that are restored during full volume recover processing.
Table 1 provides more details about this migration action. Use this information to plan your changes to the system.
| Element or feature: | DFSMShsm |

| When change was introduced: | z/OS V2R1. |
| Applies to migration from: | z/OS V1R13. |
| Timing: | Before the first IPL of z/OS V2R2. |
| Is the migration action required? | Yes, if your application depends on the output of the LIST DUMPCLASS command. |
| Target system hardware requirements: | None. |
| Target system software requirements: | None. |
| Other system (coexistence or fallback) requirements: | None. |
| Restrictions: | None. |
| System impacts: | None. |
| Related IBM Health Checker for z/OS check: | None. |
Steps to take
- RECOVERRESET value
- MINSTACK field with a output target of TERM, OUTDATASET, or SYSOUT.
Also, remove any dependency on the STACK field location in the LIST DUMPCLASS command with a output target of TERM, OUTDATASET, or SYSOUT.
