Thanks Todd,
I looked at a few examples (IBM REDBOOK) and they have DD1 statements. Do I
need to use them as well?

I usually do the MERGECAT first and then define the alias. I believe the
ALIAS DEFINE will fail if there are entries in the MCAT that match it...

Subject: MERGECAT QUESTION
Gentle Readers,
We have about hundreds of user dsns which are cataloged in the MCAT because the
alias for the users were not defined.My question is the sequence I should
follow. For example do I define the ALIAS and then perform the MERGECAT? or I
perform the MERGECAT and then define the ALIAS?I don't have a test system in
which I can try it out.
Below is my jcl to run the MERGECAT:/*
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS,REGION=2048K,TIME=1440 //DD1 DD
VOL=SER=MCAT03,UNIT=SYSALLDA,DISP=OLD// DD
VOL=SER=TST001,UNIT=SYSALLDA,DISP=OLD//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD * REPRO -
INDATASET(TSUT3.MCAT) -
OUTDATASET(USERCAT.APPLIC) -
LEVEL(CTPRT17) - MERGECAT -
FILE(DD1) /*
//
Thanks.
