Klaus, Thanks for sending a response to this thread. This command appears to be what I needed to identify what has happened. When I entered the command, the result set returned was nothing. So I took the grep off to get the full output and none of the dasd I am trying to add is listed. So it would appear the iocds is my problem. Not what I wanted to see - but at least I have a reason why. Thank you for your assistance in this matter
