In this case, building the system without the RACF modules is the right choice, IMO. The general idea is: 1. Copy your 5vmcp... PPF file to something else. Don't do an override. 2. Add a new disk to the :DCL section that is where you want the CP nuc to be written. 3. Remove the LOCALMOD reference from the :MDA section 4. Add your new disk to the :MDA section (before the BASE) 5. Change the CPLOAD entry in the :BLD section to use the new disk instead of the current value You should then be able to VMFBUILD with the new PPF and get a current copy of CP. After applying CP service, you will have to build the nuc manually as nothing in SES will know about it or automatically build it. If you use the $NUC file on MAINT's A-disk after you build a RACF nuc, you'll want to stash it somewhere or rename it before you VMFBUILD since it will be replaced. I haven't tested the above procedure, but I did have the advice of the VM installation & service folks. :-) Any mistakes are mine..er... Chuckie's...yeah, Chuckie's....
