According to IBM when the couple datasets are built new, as in our case, the only was to do the V SMS,SHCDS(dsname),NEW commands.
I think it would be better to either have a PARM in IGDSMSxx when RLS is being used, or provide a function in the IXCL1DSU program to generate a connection. A new item name like RLS could be created for this purpose in IXCL1DSU. Or a new parm in the IGDSMSxx member could include the RLS dataset names or vary command syntax. I would like to know if the group would find this a better alternative? If so, I am willing to open a SHARE requirement on this. I would think most shops do not rebuild their couple datasets on a regular basis, and will run into the IGW611A or IGW609A and have to dig for the commands.
