If the clusters are not currently defined, no problem. DEFINE CL (NAME(cluster)
VOLUME(volser) LINEAR RECATALOG). (All ZFS's are Linear VSAM).
If they are currently defined, there are 2 solutions to this:
1) Move the HLQ (presumably OMVS) to a UCAT and provide uniqueness at qualifier
2 or "lower level" qualifiers. I use the LLQ.
Remember to modify BPXPRM** to include the files/mountpoints.
2) Alter the files to SYS1. This will allow RECATALOG to function. Only
datasets with SYS1 or PAGE as the HLQ can be handled w/DEFINE RECATALOG.
Step one may have to be performed as temporary measure to get from here to
there.
The SERVERPAC does create the ZFS's w/ALLOC, however this can also be done in
JCL. (sample below).
//DEFINE EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=X
//SYSIN DD *
DEFINE CLUSTER (NAME(clustername ) -
LINEAR CYL(xxxxx 0) SHAREOPTIONS(3,3) -
... -
))
//* Format VSAM Linear Data Set as ZFS Multiple File System Aggregate
//TMP EXEC PGM=IOEAGFMT,REGION=0M,
// PARM=('-aggregate clustername -compat -size 900720 -grow xxxxxx')
//*STEPLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=hlq.SIOELMOD <--LOADLIB FOR ZFS if not in
LNKLST/LPALST
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=X
//STDOUT DD SYSOUT=X

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?
