Hi,

Is it possible to change the DSNAME of the file by submitting a batch job?

For example DSNAME of the file FABC is A11.B22.C33. I want to change it to D44.E55.F66.

thanks,
kbn

Check out the ALTER option of pgm IDCAMS or the RENAME option of IEHPROGM.

Use caution when changing the HLQ as the entry may not be in the same USERCAT pointed to by ALIAS D44.

since this is in the CICS forum, I assumed that he wanted to make a change to the FCT.

dbzTHEdinosauer,

If it is indeed FCT entries then he need to use DFHCSDUP program to update the FCT entries.
