The IODF does not need to be in the master catalog in order to be used for IPL. In fact, the IODF is only used at IPL/NIP time and not by z/OS during normal operations at all. But if you really, really want it in the master catalog, you __might__ be able to do a REPRO MERGECAT function on the entry in the user catalog, moving it into the master. I'd strongly recommend against doing this! -- John McKown Maranatha! <>< ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
