Yes. Just put it on the RES volume and craft your load parameters accordingly. There is no mention of catalog requirements in the GA22-7525-12 HCD planning guide.
The planning guide has a discussion on how the IPL parms, PARMLIB, and the IODF are located during IPL. Another way is to connect the COD master cat as a usercat. Define datasets using a suitable HLQ then later ALTER them to their target SYS1 names. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of larry macioce Sent: Monday, February 22, 2010 8:49 AM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: catalog a vsam dataset in another catalog ? At first this sounds easy but let me explain: I am working on putting up a COD..not the fish as we are coming from an unsupported z/os . I'd like to use my current IODF (or even the previous one) but herein lies the problem. I DON'T want to let the COD touch my catalog as it is interwined with my production catalog...not I didn't do this someone else had the bright idea. So what i want to do is copy the IODF and place it on the COD res pack WITHOUT bringing up the COD(as it wouldn't work anyway) Is there a way to do this? thanks mace NOTICE: This electronic mail message and any files transmitted with it are intended exclusively for the individual or entity to which it is addressed.
