Before you lose sleep over this, you might want to investigate the SETLOAD command to establish a (new) PARMLIB concatenation (with slightly different dataset names, then switch back when you have things pieced back together). Before you do that, however, you might want to be sure of your RACF (et al) situation - security folks tend to get huffy when PARMLIB shifts around on them. (Mostly they get that way when they know that auditors will be getting extra-huffy with the security folks for letting the sysprogs get too slippery.) -- Tom Schmidt Madison, WI
