As always Marna - THANK YOU very much. You are always a treasure trove of information.
I am ready to hand the reigns of the temporary HLQ manipulations back to z/OSMF, but am having some difficulties during Job Generation. When I removed my 'unneeded' personal HLQ --- I got 800+ errors that 'you cannot define something that it already in the catalog' I have tried 'juggling' catalog definitions without success. The Deployment is configured to use the 'Existing' catalogs and not create a new master because I wish to IPL from my standard master cat in use today. Software Management detects that the final names already exist in the current master cat and stops. Unfortunately - An aggressive flush of datasets has deleted datasets that belonged to the base Software Instance. This has left me unable to define a workable Deployment at all. Too many 'missing' datasets that are assumed to be there from the Software Management unzips from the Portable Software Instance downloaded from my Software order. I need to go back to Square Zero and re-Install my downloaded Portable Software Instance. I am looking for a Rip and Replace set of steps that will take me back to creating my Software environment from my downloaded ShopZ order. How do you totally clean the installation and its deployments back to that level? My latest hurdle is the DDDEFs in my previously manipulated GLOBAL and TARGET zones point to DSNs that no longer exist and cannot be recovered. I have tried configuring to 'Use a New Master' without success.. I have yet to see anywhere for me to influence or select the old SSA values. It is always difficult to recover from failed, canned procedures that have failed spectacularly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
