I'm trying to understand how to use the catalog fields: COMUDSIZ UDATASIZ COMPIND VVRNFLGS
... in order to get an estimate of the uncompressed size of a compressed, extended-format DSORG=PS dataset. The documentation in "Managing Catalogs" is a little thin. - is UDATASIZ the uncompressed size? - which flags should I use to determine that the value in UDATASIZ is valid - VVRNFLGS? not bit x'80'? - COMPIND bit x'40'? Pointers to additional documentation or usage information would be appreciated.
