Hi Elardus , Thanks for the response Scenario 2 happened in a diffferent z/os system altogether . It was done using the below commands
SETPROG LNKLST,DEFINE,NAME=LNKLST02,COPYFROM=LNKLST00 SETPROG LNKLST,DELETE,NAME=LNKLST02,DSNAME=X.Y.Z SETPROG LNKLST,ACTIVATE,NAME=LNKLST02 SETPROG LNKLST,UPDATE,JOB=* I didn't do an LLA refresh here , because i was expecting that LNKLST,ACTIVATE would do the refresh automatically and also subsequent D LLA didn't show X.Y.Z in its output Then , i moved X.Y.Z to another volume and i wanted to add the same dataset back to the linklist . so , i used the below commands SETPROG LNKLST,DEFINE,NAME=LNKLST01,COPYFROM=LNKLST02 SETPROG LNKLST,ADD,NAME=LNKLST01,DSNAME=X.Y.Z SETPROG LNKLST,ACTIVATE,NAME=LNKLST01 SETPROG LNKLST,UPDATE,JOB=* After that , when i do a D LLA , it still doesnt show X.Y.Z in its output Thanks in Advance , Baby On Thu, Jul 11, 2013 at 12:01 PM, Elardus Engelbrecht < elardus.engelbre...@sita.co.za> wrote: > baby eklavya wrote: > > >Scenario 1 : The current linklist set is LNKLST00 .
