I think you would need to grep to find the members that DO contain the string and output these member names to a file. Then use a comm command to find the members that don't contain the string:
From AIX:
Purpose
Selects or rejects lines common to two sorted files.
Syntax
comm [ -1 -2 -3 ] File1 File2
Description
The comm command reads the File1 and File2 parameters and writes, by default, a three-column output to standard output. The columns consist of:
* Lines that are only in File1
* Lines that are only in File2
* Lines that are in both File1 and File2.

Kevin,
I expected that to work when I first found it but alas, it does not.
It will have to be some multi line command or loop but the
result will have to do with the exit and the flag that results from
that exit indicating that it did not find the text. I just
don't know what that looks like on the I system.
I've run across "NOT", carat, and ! as possibles but those
seem to be line results not member results as Scott L.
mentioned.

GNU grep has a -L option that does what you want. I don't know if QSH grep
supports it, though.
-L, --files-without-match
Suppress normal output; instead print the name of each input file from
which no output would normally have been printed. The scanning will stop
on the first match.

Sent by: "MIDRANGE-L" <midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx>>
Hello All,
I've looked thru a ton of GREP documentation and the archives
to find out how to find source members NOT having that text.
Specifically, I'm reviewing our QCLSRC member to see if the
member has "LOGCLP" and hoping to list only those not having
that command.
It would appear that the key is to use the exit side of the result
and I cannot find any example of how to do that.
Does anyone have an example showing how to list members
NOT having something?
This shell command adds to a file of all that have the phrase but I
don't
know how to turn it into one that does not find the text.
qsh cmd('grep -l "LOGCLP" /qsys.lib/cdsrclib.lib/qclsrc.file/* >
/qsys.lib/rrpg.lib/myfile.file/myfile.mbr')
Thanks for any reply,
Bill
