Just set the master key. Initialization is a onetime event. After that, you have a critical VSAM cluster to care for that is useless without the correct master key set. Something to think about for DR or any backup/recovery scenario.

I'll make sure that CSF is in SYSSTC. Then on LPAR1 I'll start csf. I already initialized the ckds/pkds and have defined my master keys. On LPAR2 I'll start csf using the same ckds/pkds and initialize it? Or do I just recreate the master keys for that LPAR? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
