Without getting buried in the details of the F1DSCB (the format of
which, as far as I know, matches the book's layout precisely and has for
decades), *what* are you trying to find out *about* a data set?
- What size it is and the units used for allocation?
- How many extents it's in?
- Other stuff?
There very well might be far easier ways to get that information than by
writing HLASM code to read the VTOC. Things like, say, the DSINFO ISPF
service...or LISTDSI in REXX...

I would assume a layout of DSCB format 1 didn't quite match up to the
documentation
Specifically the volser followed the DSN followed by a '1' I assume for format
1 DSCB for by the volser again
