Set report of all errors found when reloading a new GEOPARM (in a single validation sequence)

In large GEOPARMs, the verification can take several minutes. When the GDPS performs the reload/validation of the GEOPARM, it stops if it finds syntactic errors. They must be corrected and perform the syntactic validations again, then the consistency validations,... and in each verification block if it finds errors it stops (without validating if there is something wrong in the next validation block). We understand that a serious syntactic error means that it cannot even go to the consistency validation phase, but would it be possible for possible syntactic and data consistency errors to be analyzed at the same time (report with all the errors together to avoid multiple repeated validations)? We thought this would reduce our time to debug large GEOPARM errors.

    This support is available in the GDPS GUI. There are no plans to add this capability to the GDPS 3270 user interface.

    We don't have active GUI.
    The 'problem' is that you must carry out several GEOPARM validation sequences, in the event that the errors you have in the GEOPARM are of different 'category'. As our geoparm is very 'big' (more than 20,000 disks) debugging the GEOPARM may require several iterations/time

    The GDPS GUI "config editor" provides syntax checking. have you looked at this?
