× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

There has never been a nice way to do this. The cross-reference files (QSYS/QADB*) do not have anything related to members, and the system catalogs in QSYS2 would probably not, as SQL knows nothing about members.

If you have some time on your machine and extra CPU, you could run

DSPFD FILE(*ALLUSR/*ALL)
      TYPE(*MBRLIST)
      OUTPUT(*OUTFILE)
      FILEATR(*PF)
      OUTFILE(SOMELIB/SOMEFILE)

This will be a long-running process on large systems, I suspect.

There was a FNDMBR utility several years ago - I don't know if the one mentioned here is the same. The old one used MI to get at the member list and was quite fast. Unfortunately, it did not work at higher security levels. I did a google on "fndmbr pine" and found a couple items from this list's archive (one by me, of all things). A certain Michael Palutto had written a FNDMBR - he sent me the source. It uses a couple MI commands that have been made available to HLLs, so should not have any security level problems, at least up to 40. I'm going to try it out again and see. If it works, I'll y'all know. And if Michael is still around, maybe he can chime in again.

There is no native way of looking for this on the iSeries? I don't need to

I was narrowing my search to infocenter, I thought that the docs were the
way to go.

Searching for
"search members string site:publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r3/"
or
"search members contains text string site:
publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r3/"
or
 "list members string site:publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r3/"

Isn't helping much. Or maybe I am just missing the obvious because of the
unfamiliarity of the material.

Hints are welcome.
