Specifying A (Additional Info) in the OPTION field of any volume or data set listed in the Media Database list alternately displays or hides additional information about the selected volume or data set.
The set of Additional Info fields displayed depends on whether you specified A on a volume line or on a data set line. For a volume line, fields relating to volume information are displayed. For a data set line, fields relating to data set information are displayed.
Note: The type of line on which you specified A, not the screen display type, determines whether data set or volume information is displayed.
For display type S, Additional Info fields relevant to system programmers are displayed along with the standard Additional Info fields for the current line.
Descriptions of Additional Info fields are provided in the following topics for:
