Resolution

To make this working you need to check the following.  

• Into the CA Vantage VKGPARMS, check if you have this setting : 

PMDATAS (B) PDSMAN Data Source Control 

 

• Into PDSMAN, you need to code in PDSMINIT some rules. 

Here is an example: 

$ACCESS LIB=AAAAA.-

REF=Y /* Last Reference Date Recording * 

$UPDATE LIB=AAAAA.CCCC.- 

CONTROL=Y /* Member Control Info Recording * 

PSR=Y /* Library Space Reuse * 

USERDATA=REUSE /* OK to overwrite user data * 

VERSIONS=4 /* Maintain 4 previous versions * 

SPMON=P90 /* Library Space Monitoring * 

DBMONWARN=90 /* Directory Block Monitoring *  

After doing a MODIFY PDSMAN REFRESH,NEWRULES all is dynamically activated and in the Windows Client Gui data are available. 

Notice that the data are increasing as for each new filtered entry a record is created.
