It can be donw using option 8.3 in ISMF . And then an SMS configuration should be activated from that SCDS. The new name will then be placed in the ACDS. SMS will then propagate that information to the COMMDS . Mark , please correct me if am wrong ! On Thu, Oct 10, 2013 at 2:42 AM, mf db

So the system does not come up far enough without SMS for you to logon to TSO/ISPF and get into ISMF? If you are doing this from a driving system, the way that sort of issue is dealt with is via SSA. For VSAM, you do that via define path. Mark -- Mark Zelden - Zelden Consulting Services -
