John,
Processing of the IODF must be very early in the IPL.
If it can process VSAM data sets why can't it process PDSE?

I should have mentioned that too. It is what we do. And, just to add a
bit, the IODF does _NOT_ need to be in the master catalog because NIP
don't use the catalog to reference it. NIP know where it is because it
must be on the  volume which is specified in the LOADPARM in z/VM or
on the HMC LPAR "load" window.

I would recommend naming the IODF something that can be in a user catalog - we use HCD as the high level in our shop. You can then just define the ALIAS on both systems and get to it from both systems with no issues.

Subject: IODF catalog issue

I have IODF defined in one system and want to work on the IODF using HCD from another system but its not cataloged into new system. Volumes are shared in this case.

Is there any way to catalog the current IODF to new system as well .
