John - There is a utility available from CBTTAPE.ORG called BYPASSNQ that was developed by Gilbert St. Flour (RIP). It has worked quite well on a number of occasions so you might want to check it out. I believe it is FILE183 on that site.

Since the cataloged version which resides on volume MPR003 is in use, I thought that I could rename the duplicate dsn which resides on MPR027. However when I try to rename the dsn (via TSO) it gave me the message "Duplicate data set name" followed by "Data set is cataloged on a volume other than MPR027". Both volumes are managed by SMS. Is there some other tactic I could employ? Thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
