You cannot change the cluster definition to run the define. The security error means you do not have authority to define the data set. Contact your site support group, tell them what you're trying to do, and get the appropriate authority or let them help you with what you want to do.

being new to the MF technology does not prevent You from reading the manuals icon_evil.gif
otherwise you will never become old in it

for example start from
www-03.ibm.com/systems/z/os/zos/bkserv/lookat/
fill the message number
with ...
IDC3018I
and then...
IDC3009I
and then...
IDC3003I

and do some reading
come back if there is omething You do not understand

but... just curious, why the need to define a SYS1.MANX thing ??

my philosophy in answering forum' s question has always been
1st the organizational issues
2nd the technical solution

but looks like I am wrong,
nobody wants to be warned about the consequences of shooting oneself in a foot
they just want to be provided with a loaded gun

I look forward to the fireworks -- probably visible from here. icon_biggrin.gif

Although I do have to ask, if you're new to the mainframe world, are you doing systems support or applications support? If you're doing applications work, you have no business attempting to define a SYS1 file and your site security properly stopped you. If you're doing systems support, you need to spend some time with your team leader to understand exactly what you're doing since the file you want to create should already exist on the system and not need creation; changing the file almost certainly will require an IPL to be implemented.

Then you need very quickly need to come to the understanding that it is not at all like a pc. You should not flail away at things about which you have no idea. The amount of damage that can be caused is enormous.

Suggest for some time you confine your work with SYSn (espceially SYS1) datasets to read only. . .

Also suggest you not ask for/ be given security access to do more than read until you have become quite familiar with the system. And this will take a while - not just a few days/weeks/months.

Terry -- I can, but then it's my sandbox LPAR and there's all kinds of testing I do in it. Of course, the production LPAR is not treated the same way .... icon_smile.gif
