Tom, Everything with ISV installs has version release in the DSN's. I've personally never liked SYMBOLICRELATE, so I don’t use it. Cloning process is boiled down to a standard set of batch jobs that just get run. Not much thought process involved.

Dave, Ok, so that's how you run your ISV products, but what about the DDDEFs for them? Do they specify the "VerRelease" and no UNIT/VOLUME? It seems like using data set aliases with SYMBOLICRELATE would be simpler than your cloning process. -- Tom Marchant >_______________________________________________________________________ >______________________________ >Dave Jousma >AVP | Manager, Systems Engineering > >Fifth Third Bank | 1830 East Paris Ave, SE | MD RSCB2H | Grand >Rapids, MI 49546 >616.653.8429 | fax: 616.653.2717 > > > >-----Original Message---- > >Fom: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On Behalf >Of Tom Marchant >Sent: Thursday, May 30, 2019 11:44 AM >To: [email protected] >Subject: Re: delete volume and unit information form DDDEF > >**CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL** > >**DO NOT open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or >unexpected emails** > >OT Thu, 30 May 2019 14:42:39 +0000, Jousma, David wrote: > >>I personally, don't catalog the SMPE target and DLIB datasets.... > >Not for MVS data sets, but what about ISV products? > >-- >Tom Marchant > >---------------------------------------------------------------------- >For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send >email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN >**CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL** > >**DO NOT open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or >unexpected emails** > >This e-mail transmission contains information that is confidential and may be >privileged.
