Which is why I reverse them. When I allocate a new SMPPTS dataset, I make a new SMPPTSn DDDEF entry and give put the current SMPPTS DSN in it. I then put the new DSN in the SMPPTS entry. I've never had a problem doing this. There does not appear to be any relationship between the dataset name and the SMPPTSn DD name. Other than that you cannot skip a number. You must use SMPPTS, then SMPPTS1, then SMPPTS2 and so on. But you can move the DSNs around so long as the all appear a single time in one of the SMPPTSn DDDEFs.
