I think this is still valid.  But you would need to check with CA Broadcom to 
be certain

If you have any CA products like, CA1, PDSMAN, DISK, ALLOCATE, and so forth

Then you should be able to download and install GMI which could also be called 
Vantage Lite or SRM Lite

It will do what you want.


Or if you have SRM/Vantage, it will do what you want.


So is the problem you are trying to solve preventing JCL errors due to datasets 
coded in JCL but not existing?  

Or is this due to using NON SMS Volumes where there is only a catalog entry and 
not a physical dataset?
