I know that I have SYS1 HLQ page DSNs, rather than PAGE,  but I haven't 
been able to simple recatalog the page DSNs since 1.7,  I also don't 
understand how you could use them while the other system is up,

Why not, as long as the other system isn't using them?

Is there a way to do this?

Just copy it with a new name; it doesn't have to be cataloged in the COD
master catalog in order for IPL to use it. If you want the ability to
update it from either system then recatalog it in the COD master catalog;
that will only work if you use the SYS1 HLQ.

(I hate this... now there is a mixture of top posting and bottom posting,
but since you went top last, I will do the same thing).

So how does that support your statement - a PAGESPACE, regardless 
of the name, can exist in multiple catalogs at the same time? 

I already stated there was special code for SYS1 *and* PAGE HLQs to be
cataloged in multiple catalogs at the same time.

Things changed. The ability to control which catalog was used (via JOBCAT, 
STEPCAT, INCAT, etc) was sharply curtailed. 

The whole process of building a system had to change.

I assume based on this APAR below from 1992 that it had always
been that way and I just remembered it wrong as PAGE.* instead
of all pagespace.  Probably a combination of that and the fact that
I've never seen anything used but SYS1 and PAGE as HLQs for page

Re: catalog a vsam dataset in another catalog ?

2010-02-22 Thread Hal Merritt
Yes. 
 
Just put it on the RES volume and craft your load parameters accordingly. There 
is no mention of catalog requirements in the GA22-7525-12 HCD planning guide. 

The planning guide has a discussion on how the IPL parms, PARMLIB, and the IODF 
are located during IPL. 

Another way is to connect the COD master cat as a usercat. Define datasets 
using a suitable HLQ then later ALTER them to their target SYS1 names.

2010-02-22 Thread Pat Mihalec
You need to do an export of the system it is on and import it to the 
catalog that you want it to be in. Here is sample JCL:
//IODF16DD DSN=SMULLER.IODF16,UNIT=SYSALLDA, 
//  SPACE=(TRK,(14,1)),DISP=(,CATLG) 
//IODF DD DSN=SYS1.IODF16.CLUSTER,DISP=SHR 
//SYSPRINT DD   SYSOUT=* 
//SYSINDD   * 
 EXPORT SYS1.IODF16.CLUSTER TEMPORARY - 
INFILE(IODF)- 
OUTFILE(IODF16) 

Follow with an Import:
//IODF16DD DSN=SMULLER.IODF16,UNIT=SYSALLDA, 
//  SPACE=(TRK,(14,1)),DISP=(,CATLG) 
//IODF DD DSN=SYS1.IODF16.CLUSTER,DISP=SHR 
//SYSPRINT DD   SYSOUT=*

Since the IODF is VSAM you'll need it catalogued. I find that the Alias 
HLQ to the COD catalog is the easiest way, just like you do with 
ServPac,etc. Then change your LOAD parms to point to the COD IODF and

It's true.  We have several common SYS1.** datasets cataloged in each

Re: catalog a vsam dataset in another catalog ?

2010-02-22 Thread Rick Fochtman

I meant to add that with the exception of SYS1, a VSAM dataset can only 
exist in 1 catalog at a time.

/snip

I must have missed this one too, when did IBM remove PAGE HLQ from this 
list?


I thought that the original OP wanted to keep the COD separate from his 
running system, so I thought that the ServPac type Alias to his COD 
catalogue would be appropriate. I'm not sure how this thread went off into 
SYS1 but 
 


unsnip
One of our responders apperantly forgot that the page datasets are VSAM, 
by definition. :-)

Actually a PAGESPACE, regardless of the name, can exist in multiple

Are you sure?  I thought the special code in DFSMS was only for SYS1
and PAGE HLQs.  Although I've never tried to define a page data set with 
any other HLQ than SYS1 or PAGE.

Re: catalog a vsam dataset in another catalog ?

2010-02-22 Thread McKown, John
My page datasets all start with PAGE.SYSNAME..LOCALnn and so on. When I 
replace an image, I just do a 

 DEF PAGESPACE(NAME(PAGE.LIH1.COMMON) -
  FILE(MVSPG3) VOL(MVSPG3) RECATALOG) -
 CAT(CATALOG.ICF.newmastercat)

I don this while they are still in use on the currently running system. And I 
don't do a REPORT MERGECAT or anything else.

Hum, I don't know. This is what I did when I upgraded from 1.8 to 1.10. I had 
no problems. Created the 1.10 system. Brought down the 1.8. IPL'ed 1.10 in the 
same LPAR that 1.8 was in. Came up smooth as silk.

 Um, folks, we seems to be mixing apples and Iphones here. In this context, 
page files, IODF's, and master catalogs are not really VSAM. 

And, yes, the rules for the SYS1 HLQ are a little different.

Depends on environment.
I seem to recall John John saying he runs separate MCATs - presumably
not connected, and with (VSAM) volumes not shared between systems.
In a single cat-plex I think you'll find SYS1 and PAGE are still the
only exceptions.

Again, I suspect you guys are talking at cross purposes.
The lock-out mechanism page uses to protect the page dataset now that
page datasets for multiple systems can be on the one volume is pretty
simplistic. Dump the first page of a page dataset and have a look.
If you bring up the same system, no problem - if another system attempts
to use that datasets (currently used or not) you get the prompt.
Don't know about the re-cat issue - but I may not have tried since 1.7.
