I appreciate your honesty about living dangerously and your PS on your failure and I'm thing to myself ... I'm on a 1.4 system ... Should I be concerned?

You might consider allocating a new larger catalog then use Idcams Mergecat to move the entries. I would move them selectively ensuring that my most important HLQs were moved first. Also you will want to run Diagnose and Examine commands to make sure the catalog is clean. Good Luck, Dave O'Brien NIH Contractor PS. I have had Mergecat fail in the far distant past which is partially why I prefer CRP. That was years ago and I'm sure IBM has improved the code. ________________________________________ From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [[email protected]] On Behalf Of George Rodriguez [[email protected]] Sent: Friday, May 15, 2009 9:48 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: USERCAT Error (Out of Space) Dave, Can this process be done using standard repro commands or do I need a product to do it?

In theory this can be done with multiple LPARs accessing the catalog. In practice I've done this type of catalog work during quiet times on Sunday. I suspect there are other products, CRP is just the one with which I'm most familiar.

Since this particular catalog is used by a bunch of STC, I was thinking of expanding the catalog this Sunday in a window. Here's my question...Is it possible to REORG the catalog to reclaim "dead space"? I've deleted about 600 entries but that only bought me about 4 hours until it got full again.
