Thanks for the reply, we're grasping too. Status display of one of the volumes:
System/Sys SMS Vol MVS Vol SMS SG Group Name Status Status Status ---------- ------- -------- ------ BCSP DISNEW OFFLINE ENABLE Normally SMS VOL status would be ENABLE but we changed it today, and are trying to move all the data off these volumes. There are no RACF exits in play.

But I don't know why a user with OPERATIONS or UAUDIT could access the datasets. Is it possible that you have some sort of user exit that does a RACF check, say using the disk's volser and a class of DASDVOL to make some sort of determination for access? grasping at straws, here. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its content is protected by law.
