(Quick Reply with no research) Does the fact he is trying to add an as yet unused set of datasets mean he should add the PCOUPLE first and then the ACOUPLE ?

For XCF, there is no such thing as an 'invalid' couple type. If the TYPE= specified is not in use in the sysplex, he does not assume a typo. He assumes that the type named is not (yet?) in use. For the types that are actually in use, issue D XCF,CPL. All in-use couple data sets are displayed along with the type associated with each. Your SETXCF commands must name (or default to) one of those types . .

They should be TYPE=SYSPLEX and TYPE=BPXMCDS . . .

I suspect it's something to do with the Basicness of the sysplex (no coupling facility), so I guess updating the COUPLExx PARMLIB members and reIPLing is the only way to go. Gary Weinhold Data Kinetics, Ltd. From: Skip Robinson<jo.skip.robin...@sce.com> (snipped) In any case, as long as TYPE= is correct for the couple data set(s) you're manipulating, you should have no problem. From: Lizette Koehler<stars...@mindspring.com> (snipped) I think the same process you used for the CFRM and LOGR can be used for the others. each one is a TYPE in the environment. I would check the manual, but I think you can create new files and switch them like the CFRM. Or you create new files, update parmlib and IPL. -----Original Message----- > From: Gary Weinhold<weinh...@dkl.com> (snipped) > > I am trying to clean up a volume with several alternate couple datasets > on it.
