Thanks Doug, I have everything else completed, excluding the IDCAMS define. Can you simply ALTER CATALOG, using IDCAMS to change the CATALOG definition from NOECSHARE to ECSHARE, without stopping all activity to the catalog.

MODIFY CATALOG,ECSHSHR(AUTOADD) command and it will flip between VVDS mode and ECSHARE. Even if it is ECSHARE mode it should be able to cope dynamically. But you must also have the ECS cache structure set and the CFRM policy stuff, etc. in place. The attribute is available on the IDCAMS Define and Alter commands.
