If you have done the CF work, and you issued the modify to the catalog AS, then yes, you should be able to. The catalog ECSHARE should work it out between EC mode and VVDS mode.

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.

According to the doc, you can turn it on via a modify. 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.

Hello,

I am looking to convert z/OS catalogs to ECSHR mode.  However, the current 
running in production, catalog have NOECSHARE.  Can I use IDCAMS ALTER command 
to change the NOECSHARE to ECSHARE, without impacting or corrupting the 
catalog?  I have ECSHR running for only two, out of the 30 or so catalogs.

Thanks,
