John, Checkout SHOWMVS. It makes a subsys call to SMS to do just that. Dennis
-----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of McKown, John Sent: Thursday, February 09, 2012 8:13 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Getting the Storage Group name for a DASD volume. I am updating an old DASD management program. It does a UCBSCAN to scan the online DASD volumes and an LSPACE to get the space information from them. I also get the Format 4 DSCB. I check DS4SMSFG to see if the volume is SMS managed or not. I would like to output the storage group name if it is. But I cannot find any indication of how to get that information. I know it is possible because QuickRef does it. Is this another of the "if you want to know that, you need to give us a lot of money and sign an NDA" part of z/OS? I really dispise that of IBM. No wonder I like GNU software. Oh, well, "anything for a buck!" is the main corporate motto in today's world.
