Failures during RENAME or ALTER

SA23-2287-00

Failures that occur when renaming a RACF-protected DASD data set can cause discrepancies between the name in the data set profile and the name in the DSCB (or catalog entry).

To recover, perform the following steps:
  1. Examine the error messages to identify the failure.
  2. List the data set profile.
  3. If the data set profile has not been updated with the new name, rerun the RENAME (or ALTER) operation.
  4. If the name in the data set profile has been updated but the name in the DSCB (or catalog entry) has not been updated, then perform the following steps:
    1. Enter the ADDSD command with the NOSET operand and use the old data set name.
    2. Enter the PERMIT command with the FROM operand using the new data set name.
    3. Enter the DELDSD command with the NOSET operand and use the new data set name.
    4. Rerun the RENAME (or ALTER) operation.
