Re: Confusion on output of LISTC CAT
The Catalog was created before the IMBED was removed. Any catalog created with IMBED before then would still show it in the listing. If you apply the apar OA10952 and then do the EXPORT/IMPORT the IMBED will no longer be in the listing. You can consider it an artifact from when the catalog was orginally created.

Re: Confusion on output of LISTC CAT
Thanks Mark, but I was referring to the Imbed parameter that was in the Listcat of her Catalog. -Original Message- From: Mark Thomen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 21, 2006 1:20 PM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: Re: Confusion on output of LISTC CAT "O'Brien, David W.

Re: Confusion on output of LISTC CAT
Thanks Mark. that is the answer I needed. We are running z/OS V1.4 and this fits very nicely. We will be upgrading to z/OS V1.7 by end of year. So I will probably just live with this anomaly for now.

Re: Confusion on output of LISTC CAT
Mark, Is the presence of the Imbed parameter an issue? Lizzette didn't mention what level of Z/os she is running on. -Original Message- From: Mark Thomen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 20, 2006 3:07 PM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: Re: Confusion on output of LISTC CAT <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:<[EMAIL PROTECTED] .net>... > Hi all, > I seem to have forgotten what it means when the output from an IDCAMS LISTC CAT('catname') has some of the information as (INVALID).

Re: Confusion on output of LISTC CAT
See Appendix "Interpreting LISTCAT Output Listings" in "DFSMS Access Method Services for Catalogs": The statistics in the catalog are updated when the data set is closed. Therefore, if an error occurs during CLOSE, the statistics might not be valid. If the data set has not been properly closed, the statistics are not updated and will therefore be incorrect. Once the data set is properly closed after a previous close failure, a LISTCAT of the data set will show these statistics as invalid. VERIFY cannot correct these statistics. To correct these statistics, you can either use the EXPORT and IMPORT commands or you can REPRO the data set to a new data set. When using compressed VSAM data sets, REPRO should specify the REPLACE option to ensure that the correct statistics are calculated.
