Why should it be at all necessary to recall a migrated data set to alter its catalog properties or to rename it? This should be an operation only on the catalog and the MCDS, with no need to access the migrated extents of the data set. Even as an increasing number of utilities are adapting to convert DELETE to HDELETE, RENAME should be converted to HRENAME and ALTER to HALTER, etc. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
