How did you get the datasets to the new system?

What HLQ are you using

Do you have separate master catalogs?  One on system A and one on system T 

Is the dasd shared?  Or did you transfer to new system?


The only way the new system can see the datasets will depend on how your shop 
deploys z/OS to new hosts.

Some rules

   1)  Do not share DASD between plexes.  This can damage the datasets
   2)  Best practice is to have a standardized process to move SMPE libraries 
to new hosts
       a) Typically you will have TLIBs and DLIBs.  You only need (in most 
cases) the TLIB datasets
       b) PDS/E can be damaged if you share them between plexes (even Monoplex)
       c) DFDSS Dump restore can be a friend
   3)  Most SYS1 type datasets are cataloged in a master catalog.
       a) It is preferred to not share master catalogs between monoplexes


Please provide more details on how you transferred the datasets to system T.  
How you cataloged them on System T.  What the HLQ is for the datasets being 
transferred to system T
