In lieu of the mergecat, why not just do a dump of the old cat and restore to the new one?

The OP wants to use a new catalog with another name. Somehow you need to preserve the alias somehow as described in that info APAR.

I do not have a way of listing the APAR so I do not know what it says to do. If I wanted to ALIAS entries to point at a new name, just delete and then define them. OTOH, as has been pointed out, just deleting and redefining (using the same name) the usercat (my backup/restore method) would also work. As I stated, there does however the method, need to be some way to freeze the contents of the usercat while you either redefine or replace it.


Warning/disclaimer: I'm not doing catalog managent these days, perhaps I'm a catalogued risk...
