Anyone knows how to get opsavgrec from OPSDYNAM INFO ?

[Marcel van Ek]

I've been trying to use ADDRESS OPSDYNAM INFO DD(ddname) to find a datsets recordsize.

Acc to doc it should return variable OPSAVGREC , but whatever I use as input allocated on ddname, that variable is always blank.

Tried all kinds of datasets: dsorg PO//PO-E/PS/HFS/VS  , recfm FB/FBA/F/V/VB/VBA/U  but all return blank in OPSAVGREC

Other variables are correct (opsifcd';'opsercd';'opsmscd';'opsdsn';'opsdsorg';'opsvol';'opsmember';'opsdisp';'opsstorclas';'opsmgmtclas';'opsdataclas)

(OPSDSNTYPE only contains a value for HFS and PDSE btw, I'd expect at least SEQ, PDS  or VSAM  for those)

SO is this a bug or does it only work on a dataset type I did not try?

I figured to ask here before creating a case ;)

Try putting INFO DD(ddname) in quotes "INFO DD(ddname)"

HI Marcel,

for the OPSDSNTYPE questions... Use the OPSDSORG variable.. This will deliver you the required value possibly..

Sofar I've not seen a useful solution.. the quotes were there, OPSDSORG is not feasible.

Still no useful answer, So I think I'll just create an issue for this....
