Worse, JES3 setup will require that both data sets be available regardless that only one will be used.
The ALIAS suggestion is risky. Job initiation will ENQueue only on the ALIAS name. Step initiation will attempt to ENQueue on the RELATED name; if it is not instantly available the job will terminate without waiting for it. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
