Hi Mike,
I created the DASD using 'dasdload' and have never created a
catalog, user or otherwise, in that DASD. I have only (blindly)
followed the instructions to install from a XMI, and everything got
cataloged at the time. Where? I don't know. As said, I am a
complete NOOB.
Are those datasets named 'Z9999...' catalogs? If so, there is no
such thin on that DASD.
Thank you for your attention.

Hi all,
First of all, I am a complete NOOB related to an enormous list of
things, at the top of the list are VSAM datasets a catalogs :(
Long time ago I have installed KICS V1R5M0 in a DASD of an old
installation of Tk? This virtual DASD got forgotten in a corner
of my desktop system (Linux Xubuntu 22.04). Now I decided to
connect this virtual DASD to my Tk5. There is no catalog in that
DASD, at the time I just cataloged to the "default" catalog. (Is
it the master?)
When I open the content of that DASD in RFE DSLIST all the
datasets are uncatalogued. I can use the "C" selection code to
catalog the datasets. Except for the VSAM datasets, I succeed to
catalog all non VSAM datasets.
I am not allowed, by the system, to do anything to those VSAM
datasets. So, if possible, I would like to as for a set of JCL
examples that would allow me to:
1- Catalog those uncatalogued ones
2- Delete a VSAM dataset
Any simple example (for a NOOB) would be very much appreciated.
BTW, would it be easier if I have created a catalog on that DASD?
Would it be possible to create it now, or does it have to be done
on a empty DASD? Any direction on the subject?
TIA
Roxo
