Hi Alan, Thanks for the response. I did get it to work. The main reason that I was not getting any output was because the user that I was running the RACDSMON EXEC under did not have Auditor privileges in RACF. Once I fixed that it worked. However there were some strange messages that came out dealing with bad syntax in the SMF CONTROL file, and that SMF was not active, none of this was true. SMF was running and the control file had no issues.
So I think I am going to open up a PMR to have them take a look.

Is it shared, or isn't it? If RACF thinks the db is non-shared, but it really is, then you may have a corrupted database. > (OPERATOR) IRR401I I/O ERROR AT RBA 00000000E000 DURING RACF PROCESSING OF > (OPERATOR) ALTER REQUEST FOR ENTRY VSAMDSET > (OPERATOR) BACKUP RACF DATA SET SEQUENCE 001, RACF.BACKUP > (OPERATOR) IRR410I RACF UNABLE TO BACK UP UPDATE OF > (OPERATOR) VSAMDSET > (OPERATOR) BACKUP RACF DATA SET SEQUENCE 001, > (OPERATOR) RACF.BACKUP > ICH520I RACF 5.4.0 IS ACTIVE. > (OPERATOR) IRR401I I/O ERROR AT RBA 000000013000 DURING RACF PROCESSING OF > (OPERATOR) ALTER REQUEST FOR ENTRY MAINT Or, have you copied (via DDR) the datasets to a disk that is smaller than the disk you first created the datasets on?
