We have had times when we wanted to review the documents for a deployment set.  Now, I am sure there is a better way, but at the time I was new. We took this simple command and wrapped it in a CL to be able to pass in the deployment set.  Then we added a command--THISDEPLOY--to be able to call the CL quickly.  Now, when we want to see what is happening or has happened, we type THISDEPLOY 000000 where 000000 is the number for the deployment set 


WRKSPLF SELECT(ALDONCMS *ALL *ALL &DEPLOY)

Hi David,

Thank you for sharing your solution which looks great.

We normally recommend appending an "*" asterisk at the end of the deployment set to ensure that all related spool files are captured:
Example:
WRKSPLF SELECT(ALDONCMS *ALL *ALL 0001705*)   <== note the "*" appended at the end of the deployment set number.
This ensures that, in addition to spool files having "User Data" = "0001705", spool files for  "0001705 1" etc are also caught.

Once again, thank you for sharing a great article.

Yes, in the CL we add the asterisk. 

CHGVAR VAR(&DEPLOY) VALUE(%trim(&Deploy) *TCAT '*' )
