One annoying issue with SMS is that you can no longer use the old trick of replacing a broken dataset by uncataloging the old and cataloging the new.
At least, I have not figured out a way to replace a broken system dataset. Personally, I avoid all of the IPL related datasets be they on the res volumes or not. By 'IPL datasets' I mean all those needed to get a base functionality: JES, TSO, VTAM, TCPIP, etc, or those that require an IPL to replace. But that's just my $0.02 HTH and good luck. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ceruti, Gerard G Sent: Thursday, August 18, 2005 6:14 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Vtam and SMS Hi Folks We are looking to place all out VTAM datasets under SMS control, not the DSN's on the IPL volume, has anyone done this and not gone forward with it?.
