Listing allocation rules

The LIST subcommand is useful when you want to list allocation rules contained in a repository catalog.

Specify the LIST subcommand in the following format:

The variable type refers to the level at which you want to list the allocation rule.

//PFPSYSIN DD   * 
  PROCESS_EPR REPOSITORY_DSNAME='PFP.PFPEPR'
