That was my other 'problem'. I don't want that CPAC stuff on my target (or 
residence) volume, and I did not find a way to move it to an SMS-managed, 
pre-existing qualifier. I ended up massaging that, too. I only keep CPAC as 
reference.
So I guess the answer is 'no way' to my question.

And I just discovered that SYS1.UADS is in SMPE, but was NOT restored by 
serverpac, same as sys1.Auads. In my thinking it would have been fine to not 
have a sys1.uads *at all*, but to have it in the SMPE environment but not on 
the restored volumes is bad. How do I know if there will be maintenance to it 
when it will not find anything?



The only part of this I'll comment on is whether or not one should have a UADS data set at all.

I will assert one should, purely for recovery purposes in case the security database and its backup must be restored. In a very restrictive networking environment, one can log on with UADS to recover the security DB from backups, and re-IPL with normal security immediately afterward.

Just my two cents.
