At this site we use a different HLQ (SMPE) for our distribution libraries, largely for this reason. A ZONEEDIT DDDEF can easily be used to change the target libraries without affecting distribution libraries, whether they be on an alternate residence volume or not.
Of course, you have your maintenance Z/Unix file systems mounted a on a /service mount-point too? Ant. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mainframe Mainframe Sent: Wednesday, 3 September 2014 6:06 PM To: [email protected] Subject: SMPE DDDEF modify Issue We have two copies of RES volume. Primary and Secondary in our z/OS 1.13 systems.While setting up SMPE initially, we always make sure that SMPE DDDEF of target dataset should point to only Alternate RES volume and we always run system with primary RES volume. So, while applying Maintenance new data will go into Alternate RES volume, and running system will not be affected. But, I just saw that in one of our system, Target dataset DDDEF is not pointing to Alternate RES volume. But as we have indirectly catalogging setup, So, target zone DDDEF pointing that RES volume using that system is IPL'd currently. But Now I have requirement of changing Target zone DDDEF to point to Alt RES volume permanently . But my difficultly is, if I use CHANGE VOLUME by setting up BDY as target zone then it will change all target and distribution dataset present in target zone which I dont want. Is there any procedure, to change only Target dataset volume and UNIT parameter in target zone. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
