I cut & pasted from my parmlib member from P&H and put it in the parmlib here for reference. You can do the same if you like. Here it is: VATDEF IPLUSE(PRIVATE),SYSUSE(PRIVATE) Z17CAT,1,2,3390 ,Y Z17DB2,1,2,3390 ,Y Z17DB3,1,2,3390 ,Y CC8 MOUNT STATUS Z17DLB,1,2,3390 ,Y 0 - PERMANENT RES Z17HFS,1,2,3390 ,Y 1 - RESERVED Z17RES,1,2,3390 ,Y Z17RS2,1,2,3390 ,Y CC10 MOUNT ATTRIBUTES Z17RS3,1,2,3390 ,Y 0 = STORAGE Z17SMP,1,2,3390 ,Y 1 = PUBLIC Z17SPL,1,2,3390 ,Y 2 = PRIVATE Eric ---- John Dawes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hallo To All, > > My question is about the VATLIST.
