Re: Catalogs in a SYSPLEX

As noted earlier in this thread, sysres datasets should be cataloged with volser ** and unit . That tells the system to look on the currently IPLed sysres regardless of volume name. BTW I don't subscribe to the floating MCAT strategy. Our master catalog lives away from sysres and

I like this approach! But I thought certain data sets used in NIP and early phases of IPL had to be in the master cat, e.g., SYS1.LPALIB which presumably is in your SYSRES cat? How does it work? Ken On Tue, Nov 22, 2016 at 11:28 AM, van der Grijn, Bart (B) < bvandergr...@dow.com> wrote: > We

I understand your point. Still suggest you look first at the system weight values in SFM. They establish a prioritized 'queue' of systems that will get partitioned out in case the sysplex hangs. . . J.O.Skip Robinson Southern California Edison Company Electric Dragon Team Paddler SHARE MVS
