CH MCAT N
Interesting: according to the documentation that shouldn't work, although
it did.
Thanks.
What documentation are you looking at? I think Appendix A.7 in
ServerPac: Using the Installation Dialog (the command reference part of
the book) pretty clearly says that CH MCAT N exists and is intended for
exactly this use:
"To override the master catalog requirement for data sets in your
configuration, do the following:
* Use the dialog's View and Change Facility to display data sets
with a Master Catalog attribute of 'Yes'.
* From the list of master catalog data sets, enter the CHANGE MCAT
command as follows:
CH MCAT N
* Exclude any data sets that you do not want to change (through
line command X) and press Enter.
* Press Enter or End to refresh the display. The overridden data
sets are removed from the list."
Does some other part of the book conflict with this?
Note: Like all CHange commands, you can issue this from *any* data set
list in View and Change. So if there are several operations you want to
carry out for all data sets (MCAT flag -> N, add primary and secondary
space, etc.), you can pick any attribute in View and Change and select a
list based on all its values to get a list of all data sets, and then
fire away. (e.g., you could pick Required in Master Catalog and then
select both Yes and No.) There is no need to generate one list for
MCAT, another for SPACE, a third for RENAME, etc. You can override all
three from the same list.
Also: The dialog being what it is, in my opinion it pays to at least
skim the whole book. It's not that long, and the time spent reading is
likely to pay you back several times over.
