We are a small z/OS shop. We have only aliases and SYS1 data sets in our master catalog. We have a user catalog for all 'system' type data sets which include OMVS and/or zFS data sets. Our alias for OMVS data sets is 'OMVS' and our alias for zFS data sets is 'ZFS'. Real original:)

Schlecht Sent: Thursday, August 20, 2015 10:21 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Catalog for OMVS datasets Hello all, How do you catalog your OMVS datasets? My predecessor created a catalog in which he put a few OMVS dataset definitions. However, it never really got used. We only have a few dozen OMVS file systems so it doesn’t seem to make sense to have a catalog just for them. What is common practice? What do you do? Do you have a separate catalog for your OMVS datasets? If so, what’s your reasoning? David G.
