True but the OP gave SYS1 and as an example which to me implies IPL volume. Your &SYSRx symbolic would work for other volumes.

I thought the VOL('******') was only valid for datasets residing on the IPL Volume. If the files were off of the sysres you would need to use something like &SYSR1 or other symbolic. And I think the latter is what the OP is working towards.

So then use indirect catalog addressing in the catalog and APF list, VOLUME(******) . -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of baby eklavya Sent: Saturday, October 05, 2013 4:41 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: Multiple datasets with same name on APF list ! That's correct .. We are planning to have different master catalog for each LPAR , and use the SYS1 datasets with same name (but on different volumes) and wanted to share the same APF list .
