Issue/Introduction

We are upgrading from R15 to R18.

We are getting message from EXEC PGM=NDVRC1,PARM='BC1PXCNMVALIDATE',

Should we run this update? Will it impact production R15?

Resolution

Here is how to change MCF and ELM catalog name:
- First of all, you need to do the name changes at a time when no-one is using Endevor.
- Duplicate to new name, using IDCAMS Repro or Rename all the files, using IDCAMS Alter,
- then update the names in C1DEFLTS and assemble and relink it,
- then run the BC1JXCNM job with UPDATE option (from iprfx.iqual.CSIQJCL)

In your case, you only need to run BC1JXCNM job with UPDATE.
