RE: determining whether access paths were saved

["Al Barsa" <barsa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Data yes, because in fact it was saved.  That is the size of the LF without
access paths.  One could argue that the developers of the System/38 should
have realized how expensive access paths were to develop and have saved
them by default.  But then again, when the 38 was announced, it didn't even
have tape drives.  All it had was diskette magazines!

I think that I heard a COMMON presenter say that in a future release the
default might be changeable at the system level.

Thanks, Al

why the Data: "Yes" and Size: <big numbers> on the listing?

There were no access paths saved.  The number is the definitive indication.

Is there a way to determine whether access paths were saved on a SAVLIB for
which I have the tape but no other history?

I did a DSPTAP DEV(TAP01) DATA(*SAVRST) and the page header that prints
shows for every library:
      Access paths . . . . :   0

This, despite the fact that Size column shows the approximate size of the
file on the system and the Data column shows 'YES', as the following
snippet
shows:

     Object       Type     Attribute     Size  Data
     $DSPFD$MBR   *FILE    PF         9470464  Yes
     $DSPFD$MB3   *FILE    LF          627712  Yes
     $DSPFD$MB1   *FILE    LF          495616  Yes
     $DSPFD$MB2   *FILE    LF          475136  Yes
