We had a 'catalog anomaly' recently were one person got a different list of data sets under 3.4 than I did, both of us using the same search criterion. Turns out we had different selections set In the options list:
Confirm Data Set Delete Confirm Member Delete Include Additional Qualifiers Display Catalog Name Display Total Tracks Prefix Dsname Level It's not about right or wrong choices, simply that unless the choices are identical, results can differ for the *same* person on the *same* system, in particular 'Include Additional Qualifiers'. Having these choices is great, but the consequences of selecting one--or not--can be surprising. . .

IDCAMS? 3.4? Other tool? Just verifying apples to apples Also, list the catalog - From both LPARs - MVS Console Command F CATALOG,REPORT Provides general information on the status of the catalog address space. Current settings for CAS parameters and features are listed as well as CAS specialty tasks addresses and any CAS entry points that have been intercepted. There are other forms of the REPORT command that provide information on other aspects of the catalog address space. Maybe also from both LPARs F CATALOG,ALLOCATED - ensure the ucat is there on both systems. Then provide the entire output back to the list Lizette > -----Original Message----- > From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On > Behalf Of Elaine Beal > Sent: Tuesday, June 11, 2019 6:36 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: Alias Listcat discrepancy betweeen sysplex'd LPARs > > LPARA SYSCAT SCS001123CCATALOG.ICF.VSCS001 > VCATICF > > LPARB SYSCAT SCS001123CCATALOG.ICF.VSCS001 > VCATICF > > Thanks, > Elaine ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
