Issue/Introduction

Why are Catalogs and VVDS not reported on in the MAPPER report?

Resolution

In the MAPPER report, there can be double FREE SPACE entries like this:

**FREE SPACE** 0000085:0 90
**FREE SPACE** 000008E:0 30

The space between the two free spaces that isn't being reported belongs to a catalog and/or a VVDS.

Due to the design of DSCL, catalogs and VVDS data sets are skipped unless a *separate* SELECT is included.

If this is coded:

SCAN REALVOLS
SELECT VOL=volser
REPORT MAP

...only data sets will be listed and NOT catalogs or VVDS.

To have data sets, catalogs and VVDS in the report, this would need to be coded:

SCAN REALVOLS
SELECT VOL=volser
SELECT VOL=volser,CATALOG=/
REPORT MAP
