Hi, When setting up system data sets, I noticed two special things:
1, Take PROGXX parmlib member as an example. When adding a data set to APF list here, volume serial number should also be specified plus dsname. In my opinion, it's because at the earlier stage of IPL CAS(Catalog Address Space) is still unavailable. But when will the CAS be created? I only know that Master Scheduler is the first address space. After that it's Master Scheduler's responsibility to create other address spaces. 2, Some system data sets must be cataloged in master catalog. Frankly speaking, I don't know the reason. If catalog service is already available, why must the 'master catalog'? I remembered I once read in one material about this topic one year ago but now I cannot find that pdf. -- Best Regards, Johnny Luo ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
