how to check if the given source member is present in library src-pfs?

I want to find that a given source member exists in any source physical file (SRC-PF) of a provided library. In my library, there are lots of source physical files and I do not want to go to each source physical file of the provided library using WRKMBRPDM on the IBM i green screen and search for the given source member. Is there any way or command that I can run once and get to know immediately whether the source member exists in any of the src-pf of a given library?

    We can do this by running the QSHELL command ls on the IBM i green screen by invoking the Qshell environment using the STRQSH command.

    ls /qsys.lib/libname.lib/Q*SRC.FILE/srcmbrname.MBR

    ls command will list out files and directories.

    For example: I want to search for source member name file1 in all of the source files available in the library TESTLIB, if it finds the source member the command will list out that member and if it does not find that source member then it gives error.

    Ran the following QSH command after running STRQSH on the command line,
    ls /qsys.lib/testlib.lib/Q*SRC.FILE/file1.MBR
    Source member found and its output is:
    /qsys.lib/testlib.lib/QDDSSRC.FILE/file1.MBR
    The source member FILE1 is present in the QDDSSRC source file in the library TESTLIB.

    Now, run the following QSH command after running STRQSH on the command line,
    ls /qsys.lib/testlib.lib/Q*SRC.FILE/filea.MBR
    Source member not found and its output is:
    ls: 001-2113 Error found getting information for object /qsys.lib/testlib.lib/Q*SRC.FILE/filea.MBR. No such path or directory.
