I can do this, e.g. by
| Code: |
//PRINOIDC JOB (PRINO),
// 'ROBERT AH PRINS',
// CLASS=A,
// MSGCLASS=H,
// MSGLEVEL=(2,0),
// NOTIFY=&SYSUID
//******************************************************************
//* CREATE ALIAS
//******************************************************************
//IDCAMS EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//*
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//*
//SYSIN DD *
DEF ALIAS (NAME('PRINO.Y110601.DATA') -
RELATE('PRINO.Y110501.DATA')) -
CATALOG('CATALOG.SYS.USER')) |
But how do I make 'PRINO.Y110601.DATA' visible? Tried about everything, but I cannot find it on the system, which makes the whole exercise a bit useless. |

No, it's not, is that the problem? |

just tested...
You will have to create an alias from the master catalog to the user catalog
| Code: |
DEF ALIAS (NAME('PRINO') -
RELATE('CATALOG.SYS.USER')) |
steps to test
1) define a user catalog
2) create an alias TEST
3) allocate a TEST.SAMPLE.PRi
3a) 3.4 shows TEST/TEST.SAMPLE.PRI
4) deleted the alias
4a) 3.4 show nothing
4b) a directed listcat shows TEST.SAMPLE.PRI
5) created an alias TEST.SAMPLE.ALIA of TEST.SAMPLE.PRI
5a) 3.4 shows noting
5b) a directed listcat shows TEST.SAMPLE.PRI / TEST.SAMPLE.ALIA
6) recreated the TEST alias pointing to the user catalog
6a) 3.4 shows TEST/TEST.SAMPLE.PRI/TEST.SAMPLE.ALIA |

Enrico,
I have created an user catalog
| Code: |
| def ucat(name('catalog.z110.user') tracks(30 30) vol(prino1)) |
and two aliases
| Code: |
def alias (name('pli') relate('catalog.z110.user'))
def alias (name('prino') relate('catalog.z110.user')) |
And all my own datasets show up very happily.
However, after a
| Code: |
DEF ALIAS (NAME('PLI.V3R7M0.SOURCE') RELATE('IEL370.SOURCE')) -
CATALOG('CATALOG.Z110.USER')) |
PLI.V3R7M0.SOURCE is nowhere to be found. |

Hi Robert!
IIRC the base dataset and it's aliases must be cataloged in the same catalog
checked with
| Code: |
000008 DEFINE ALIAS( -
000009 NAME('TEST.IEL370.SIBMZCMP') -
000010 RELATE('IEL370.SIBMZCMP') ) -
000011 CATALOG(CATALOG.USER.ZAUSR0) |
and I get
| Code: |
IDCAMS SYSTEM SERVICES TIME: 14:07:59
DEFINE ALIAS( -
NAME('TEST.IEL370.SIBMZCMP') -
RELATE('IEL370.SIBMZCMP') ) -
CATALOG(CATALOG.USER.ZAUSR0)
IDC3022I INVALID RELATED OBJECT
IDC3009I ** VSAM CATALOG RETURN CODE IS 80 - REASON CODE IS IGG0CLER-4
IDC3003I FUNCTION TERMINATED. CONDITION CODE IS 12
IDC0002I IDCAMS PROCESSING COMPLETE. MAXIMUM CONDITION CODE WAS 12 |
