Not to be to flippant, but why in the heck would you have SYS1 datasets in your master catalog also SMS managed? Seems like you are creating a nasty scenario.
But if you have to have this, then REPRO MERGECAT is probably the only solution I know of to move the entries from one master to the other. Just be specific with the LEVEL in the command. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Tracy Adams Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2017 4:23 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: simple questions on migrating to a new mastercat So I am built a new master catalog for the 2.2 migration. I have some sys1. Datasets that live on various sms volumes that I want add catalog entries to in my new mastcat. If I just use IDCAMS define nonvsam I get a good entry but there is no SMS information. I can't use "recatalog" because the catalog names are different. Mergecat would move the entry and REPRO will copy all the junk I want to leave behind. What is the correct procedure to recreate an SMS managed SYS1 dataset into a second MASTCAT?
