While you can define the AIX as reusable, you can't define the base cluster
as reusable if it has an AIX.... From the define cluster: "When you create a
reusable cluster, you cannot build an alternate index to support it."

Subject: VSAM REUSE with alternate index
I am posting this for a co-worker.
Any hints are greatly appreciated.

========================================================
I was wondering if you could help me out with a VSAM question.
I have a base cluster defined with an alternate index and a path. Its
modeled
on an existing file.
Im able to define and load my test version of the file using IDCAMS. What I
would really like to do is to be able to reload/refresh this file each night
using
IDCAMS REPRO with a REUSE.
I added REUSE to the base cluster but received an error on the repro. I then
tried adding REUSE to the definition of the alternate index but also got
errors
during the repro. Can IDCAMS be used to get this done? I guess the
alternative is to delete/redefine the VSAM file each night which I would
prefer
not to do.
