The catalog is SMS managed and the STORAGECLASS I will be using is GUASPACE. Below is the cluster definition. I am not sure if I am missing anything. Could someone take a quick look and let me know if it is okay? //DEFINE EXEC PGM=IDCAMS,COND=(4,LT) //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSIN DD * DEFINE - USERCATALOG - (NAME (SYS1.ICFCAT.UCATPLN) - CYL(25) - VOLUME(PLAN906) - STORAGECLASS(GUASPACE) - ICFCATALOG - STRNO(3) - FREESPACE(20 20) - NOIMBED - LOCK - SHAREOPTIONS(3 4)) - DATA( - CONTROLINTERVALSIZE(4096)) Thanks in advance. __________________________________________________________________ Connect with friends from any web browser - no download required.
