The WHOHAS command may be used to display the global file allocations for the MSO address space, the files that are allocated to a particular user's session, or all users who have a specific data set allocated, as described below. The WHOHAS displays are refreshed whenever the ENTER key is pressed.

The region-level WHOHAS display is shown when the W prefix command is entered against the *REGION* userid in the Display Users panel. It shows the files that are allocated globally to the MSO region. These files are either used by MSO itself, or files that are available, subject to security rules, to all users of the MSO region.
You may use the region-level WHOHAS display to invoke the data set browser for data sets that may be browsed from the MSO Console. There is an input field to the left of each eligible ddname. You may enter the S command in this field to browse the data set.

The task-level WHOHAS display is shown when the W prefix command is entered against a userid in the Display Users panel. It shows the files that are allocated to that user's task. The right side of the display shows the real (translated) ddnames that were used to allocate the files. These translated ddnames are required if the DYNAM operator command is to be used against these files. (This does not affect DYNAM commands issued by the user, which continue to use the untranslated ddnames.) See Site-Specific Customizations for a discussion of ddname translation.
You may use the task-level WHOHAS display to invoke the data set browser for data sets that may be browsed from the MSO Console. There is an input field to the left of each eligible ddname. You may enter the S command in this field to browse the data set.

The data set-specific WHOHAS display is generated by entering the command
WHOHAS data set name
from the Display User panel. This command displays information on all allocations of a specific file in the MSO region. The display contains the following columns:
|
C - Command |
This field is the same as on the Display Users panel. In addition, the W command takes on a new meaning, as described under MVS DD, below. |
|
Logon_ID |
This field is the same as on the left Display Users panel. |
|
Runcount |
The number of attempts to connect to the central PDM. Runcount corresponds to the runcount specified in the service block. |
|
MVSDD |
This field contains the real, translated, ddname, which MSO used to allocate the file. If the file is allocated more than once by one user, this field will contain *MORE..., and the W command must be entered in the Command field to display detail on the allocations. |
|
USER-DD |
This field contains the untranslated ddname, which the user specified to allocate the file. |
|
OPN |
This field shows a count of how many open DCBs exist for this file. |
|
DDs |
This field shows a count of how many different allocations exist for this file by this user. If greater than 1, W must be entered in the Command field to display the allocations. |
|
QueryID1 |
This field is blank for normal MSO usage. |
|
QueryID2 |
This field is blank for normal MSO usage. |
|
PSB |
The name of the PSB being accessed (only applies to IMS). |
