I only have one CSI that contains all zones. The SMP SCDS, LTS, MTS, and STS are the same for all target zones. Each target zone has its own target libraries.
Do any of these details change your assessment? I have a production and test target zone. Can I ACCEPT, delete the test target zone, clear the SMP/E datasets, and make a fresh clone? Will that straighten me out?

If so, then you probably have a corrupt environment. The LTS may be empty or not used, or even if it is you can just delete everything from it and allocate separate ones per zone. The SCDS, MTS and STS - not so. Another possibility is you only apply to one and clone the other zones, if so, you are also fine, but the cloning process for a target zone should also clone those 4 data sets along with the VSAM CSI and the product(s) target data sets.
