Hi, Rob,
Thanks for that helpful hint.
The reason Kevin Leonard and I suggested the alternative method using
//JOBCAT or //STEPCAT was because, IIRC, back when OS/VS1 and OS/VS2 Rel. 1
(SVS) were supported, that GENERATE INDEX= stuff just did not seem to work
correctly. So that is why we proposed an alternative to allow the use of
SYS1, without overlaying the real "SYS1." datasets of the generating system.
I should try it again, to see if perhaps that problem was "Fixed" by the
time of the final 1.7L refresh of SVS.
Thanks,
Mark

Hi,
My way to run a SYSGEN of a new system is not allocating
SYS1. datasets, but using another High Level Qualifier.
That is the normal procedure to make a new sysres.
Use in the STAGE1 for example GENERATE INDEX=SYSK.
The system datasets will be allocate with HLQ=SYSK.
In the last job of the STAGE2 output, the SYSK datasets will be
renamed to SYS1.
Cheers,
Rob
