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.

Thanks,
