One more question on this subject, once this job executes, is there a data set that gets updated that I can verify it worked? Will it always reside on the RES volume? (somewhere in the back of my memory I seem to remember my old boss mentioning that we put it on a different volume, not the RES) I may be thinking of something else, but would like to feel a little more confident. How do I know it was successful? I know (think) that SYS1.NUCLEUS fits in here somewhere.
