Linda: a qualified Yes. There also must not be an ENQERR=NO. With ENQERR=BYPASS (the default, by the way), the file will be BYPASSed ie. not copied, if it cannot be ENQd or quiesced without error. The =NO will remove the RC>0/abend from the step.
ps. HFS=QUIESCE implies DSNENQ=USE. (There's also a note that HFS must be dismounted before a MOVE ie. Quiesce does not apply.) Without this option, you will always get an enqueue error for mounted HFS/zFS datasets. pps. I've *always* gotten quick responses from Innovation to my e-messages - trivial or not - even if it's only to say, "gotta investigate" or "will look at it tomorrow". I've found their communication practices to be excellent. ----------> signature = 6 lines follows <-------------- Neil Duffee, Joe SysProg, U d'Ottawa, Ottawa, Ont, Canada telephone:1 613 562 5800 x4585 fax:1 613 562 5161 mailto:NDuffee of uOttawa.ca http:/ /aix1.uottawa.ca/ ~nduffee "How *do* you plan for something like that?"
