Hello Lionel !I tried with an actual HFS, and I get this from the command: > cat //\'SYS2.IMS04.HFS.ROOTIMS.V14\'cat: //'SYS2.IMS04.HFS.ROOTIMS.V14': > EDC5092I An I/O abend was trapped.
Ok, but I get also this message in syslog:IEC143I 213-8C,IFG0194D,WSYGRIS,STEP1,SYS00008,E61E,ZPS10G,SYS2.IMS04.HFS.ROOTIMS.V14 I would like to receive no message at all during this "test". I worry that my coworkers will search for an error, where there is none.

Hello,I would like to "test" if a MVS Dataset exist (is catalogued) during the /etc/rc script. As far as I know, since /etc/rc script run during USS initialisation, TSO services are not yet available. So I cannot use the "tso" Unix command to issue a LISTCAT. Actualy my need is to perform a mount command in this process. But I do not want to return Error messages, if the HFS/ZFS doesn't exist. That's why I need to test that the dataset is catalogued/exist before calling the Mount service. Do you have any idea ?
