Mark, You should be able to use the DEF RECATALOG. With the RECATALOG, IDCAMS will look at the dataset on the DASD volume and build the catalog entries for the dataset.
Rex -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mark Pace Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2014 12:32 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RECATALOG I have a copy of a DASD volume that contains some OMVS (ZFS) filesystems. I realized that I cannot use ISPF 3.4 to catalog the dataset. I get a VSAM DATA SET error. Looking in at DFSMS AMS I find a RECATALOG option for a couple of DEFINEs. But the ZFS files are created via ALLOC and not a DEFINE CLUSTER. The ALLOC does not appear to have a RECATALOG option. Is there a way to get these OMVS/ZFS files cataloged? -- The postings on this site are my own and don't necessarily represent Mainline's positions or opinions Mark D Pace Senior Systems Engineer Mainline Information Systems ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN The information contained in this message is confidential, protected from disclosure and may be legally privileged.
