That is my preferred method (3.4), since I was already logged on, and can reallocate the library much easier/faster, I'm just a little lazy sometime :) I don't copy (3.3) a lot of times on LOADLIB's (some time ago there was an issue with ISPF 3.3 not assigning aliases IIRC) I have JCL already setup to copy to the new PDS

I've been doing that instead of using IEHPROGM or programs like BYPASSNQ / DELNOENQ since the rename while ENQ facility became available in OS/390 R10 (seems like a life time ago now!). You just need RACF (SAF) access to STGADMIN.DPDSRN.** (or STGADMIN.DPDSRN.dsn_to_rename) in the FACILITY class. https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSLTBW_2.1.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r1.idas300/rname.htm Regards, Mark -- Mark Zelden - Zelden Consulting Services - z/OS, OS/390 and MVS ITIL v3 Foundation Certified mailto:[email protected] Mark's MVS Utilities: http://www.mzelden.com/mvsutil.html Systems Programming expert at http://search390.techtarget.com/ateExperts/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
