Multilevel aliases<br />

You can augment the standard catalog search order by defining multilevel catalog aliases. A<br />

multilevel catalog alias is an alias <strong>of</strong> two or more high-level qualifiers. You can define aliases<br />

<strong>of</strong> up to four high-level qualifiers.<br />

However, the multilevel alias facility is only to be used when a better solution cannot be found.<br />

The need for the multilevel alias facility can indicate data set naming conventions problems.<br />

For more information about the multilevel alias facility, see z/<strong>OS</strong> DFSMS: Managing Catalogs,<br />
