You can also use IDCAMS MERGECAT to move the catalog entries and then define the ALIAS(s).

If they are migrated, then recall them, DFDSS dump/delete, create the alias, restore with CATALOG option. If they are migrated and you cannot recall them, then keep the list of migrated files, and recover them with DFHSM after you correct the alias. I do not think you can do a repromergcat if the alias does not already exist. This should work. I have used this technique in the past.
