I had this problem years ago.  If I remember correctly I restored the components of the VSAM dsn (.DATA & .INDEX) and then I recataloged the cluster.You have to ensure that the right cluster name is used.  I have seen strange VSAM dsn names used for the cluster but no matching name for the com

Hello, AT-TLS FTP is working just fine in z/OS, however we're having an issue connecting to our RedHat 9 wsftp server. At an early point in TLS handshaking, the z/OS client is proposing the "secp521r1" curve which is being rejected by wsftp. It is looking for "secp256r1," which we found hard

Re: Mainframe physical tape backup

I disagree, physical tape generation is not efficient (cost-wise or in reality man-power wise). You can Rsync most VTS boxes, and most also have built in DR recovery options to allow offloading copies of the data. There are fairly inexpensive VTS's (like a z/VT from Optica) which allows you

Re: ADRDSSU DUMP/RESTORE

My guess: You dumped a volume. Physical dump. But your volume contained no catalogued datasets. This is not source volume, but a snap (clone) of it. Different volser I guess. VSAM file is not just a bunch of extents on disk, fully described in VTOC. VSAM comprise of components *and* ICF entries.

Re: ADRDSSU DUMP/RESTORE

Bingo, give that man a cigar. You are right, the source volume is snapped to a BCP volume, different volser, and the backup is taken of the BCP volume. That explains it, the other poster pointed out not properly cataloged VSAM. "Confidentially doc, I am the wabbit." Bugs Bunny Sent from Prot
