I believe that the IODF is one of the special cases that does not have to be cataloged. That said, I found that both the old and new IODF needs to be cataloged to perform a dynamic change.

I find that the Alias HLQ to the COD catalog is the easiest way, just like you do with ServPac,etc. Then change your LOAD parms to point to the COD IODF and volume.
