I am doing this so as to perform a cleanup of the VVDS/CATALOGS.

The DIAGNOSE put out the following errors:
IDC11367I THE FOLLOWING VVDS REFERENCED CATALOGS WERE NOT ENCOUNTERED   

The DIAGNOSE of the CATALOG was clean but the DIAGNOS of the VVDS posted the 
above error.

 Why do you think you need
 to do this?
 
 
 The VVDS is a special dataset and part of the
 VTOC process.
 
 To restore a
 VVDS or VTOCIX data set, you must specify the fully
 qualified
 data set name. The VVDS and the
 VTOCIX data set cannot be restored with
 other data sets in the same RESTORE command.
 VVDS and VTOCIX data sets
 should not be
 restored by data set as a normal recovery procedure. The
 VTOCIX data set is an extension of the VTOC and
 can be rebuilt using the
 Device Support
 Facilities program (ICKDSF) BUILDIX command.
 
 The VVDS is an extension of
 the VTOC and of the catalogs for the VSAM data
 sets on the volume. If it is restored by a data
 set restore operation, it is
 possible that
 some of these data sets can become unusable because of a
 mismatch between the catalog, the VVDS, and the
 VTOC. If this occurs, run
 the diagnose
 function of access method services to determine the extent
 of
 the problem and to take appropriate
 corrective action.
 
 So, what
 happened and what are you trying to solve?
