EDTINFO
The EDTINFO (EDT) service provides information about unit names in the current Eligible Device Table (EDT).
Unit names are subdivided into generic and esoteric :
- Generic names are IBM device type names such as 3380, 3390, or 3400-6.
- Esoteric names are user defined (for example, SYSDA, TAPE, and CART).
Syntax
The parameters are defined as follows:
Parameters | Description |
|---|---|
classname | displays a list of the generic and esoteric unit names for the specified class name You must prefix the class name with an equal (=) sign. The default is =DASD. Supported class names are DASD, TAPE, UREC, COMM, CTC, CHAR, and DISP. |
unitname | displays the device number, device type, volser, and the use status of the specified unit name |
The rest of these parameters are valid only when the first parameter is unitname: | |
ALL | displays information for all devices |
PUBLIC | for DASD devices, limits the display to devices that contain volumes with a use attribute of PUBLIC; this parameter is ignored for other device types |
PRIVATE | for DASD devices, limits the display to devices that contain volumes with a use attribute of PRIVATE; this parameter is ignored for other device types |
STORAGE | for DASD devices, limits the display to devices that contain volumes with a use attribute of STORAGE; this parameter is ignored for other device types |
ONLINE | limits the display to online devices (default) |
OFFLINE | limits the display to offline devices |

Usage notes
- You can abbreviate the class name to the shortest unique value, as illustrated in the following examples:
- =T or =TA (for TAPE)
- =U or =UR (for UREC)
- Unlike class names, unit names cannot be abbreviated.
- You can include devices in multiple unit names.
- For DASD devices, one of these use statuses is displayed:
- PRIVATE
- PUBLIC
- STORAGE
