>There are only RACF profiles DBJMP05.** for DBJMP05.BDZ3 and DBJMP05.FAS.
This is not of interest to the problem. The access was denied when accessing the catalog (see your ICH408I). The user is not permitted UPDATE to data set CATALOG.PLEXBDZ3.TSO, at least in the GDG case. And I can't imagine why the update should succeed when defining the VSAM data set *when* it will be cataloged in the same catalog. -- Peter Hunkeler Credit Suisse ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
