Re: catalog a vsam dataset in another catalog ?
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. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of larry macioce Sent: Monday, February 22, 2010 8:49 AM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: catalog a vsam dataset in another catalog ?

Re: catalog a vsam dataset in another catalog ?

HTH, Actually a PAGESPACE, regardless of the name, can exist in multiple catalogs at the same time too. I do that all the time. 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.

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. 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.
