I have a 3350 volume I have loaded up using dasdload. attached to Hercules, and mounted. Using TK3UPD. AFAIK, I have not changed the master catalog password.

I go to catalog one of the datasets on it (using RFE), and (in TSO) get prompted for the password to SYS1.VMASTCAT (expected, it has an unusual HLQ). Type SECRET.

IEC331I 056-012,WEGSCD? ,IKJACCNT,RCU ,IGG0CLB6

...and RFE tells me the catalog request failed.

Tried upper case, lower case, caps lock, all no good. Did a trace on the x3270 session to make sure the correct characters were being sent.

Same problem using RPF.

Can I somehow verify (and/or change!) the password from the console?
I've had trouble via TSO before.

Run a batch job and the console will prompt.

If you're paranoid and have VM system available, dump the tracks DDR.
