Has anyone written anything or know of anything that can calculate the number of
sectors required by the filesets included in an indirect file for a STORE
process. I need to be able to determine how many tapes are required for a STORE
to enable allocation of the correct number of tapes before the STORE command is
executed. This is complicated by the way indirect files can have multiple
commands, exclude sets and parameters on many lines.
 
TIA,
