    because I dont have the alias ZWe defined in my system . I want to use BTSITE as my final qualifier.

    Can I avoid to define ZWE as an alias on my system?

    Best regards and thanks in advance

    Hi Horacio,

    >>...Can I avoid to define ZWE as an alias on my system ?

    Great question.   I feel like you should be able to, but I'm not sure we've tested this with the PSWI build which is maybe why you're hitting the error.

    I saw you'd raise the issue https://github.com/zowe/zowe-install-packaging/issues/4131 in the open source community (which is GREAT !) but you've not gotten a reply yet (which isn't great so apols for that).   What I've done is flagged your issue in the zowe-install slack channel at https://openmainframeproject.slack.com/archives/CM5ES0EJJ/p1737542266568259.   This is the best way to reach the dev squad, and I'll keep and eye on the issue and get back to you.

    Cheers !

    Hi Horacio,

    I have an update from the Zowe dev team on https://github.com/zowe/zowe-install-packaging/issues/4131#issuecomment-2607463055.

    "Unfortunately this is one of the prerequisites for PSWI deployment and it can't be avoided ...
     A pre-requisite is READ access to data set names with the HLQ ZWE on the user ID you use to deploy the package
    ".

    Because this is a pre-req from the PSWI team it's not something that Zowe can fix in isolation.  If you'd like I'm happy to raise an RFE (request for enhancement) against the PSWI team or loop them into this thread ?

    Best regards,

    Joe

    Hi

    The ZOWE PSWI instta has a prerequiste :

    • READ access to data set names with the HLQ ZWE on the user ID you use to deploy the portable package

    Once I define the ZWE.* RACF profile and ZWE alias I could run the deployment jobs .

    You need these alias and RACF profile although you use another prefix for your libraries

    Best regards.

    Thank you for the solution for ZWE*. I am able to submit the job. Now I encounter another error 

    zwe init security -c /products/zowe/zowe-smpe/zowe.yaml --allow-overwrite     
    * Exit code: 255                                                              
    * Output:                                                                     
         130 +++ cRC.isfInit=isfcalls('ON')                                       
      IRX0043I Error running /products/zowe/zowe-smpe/bin/utils/opercmd.rex, line 
    * Exit code: 255                                                              
    * Output:                                                                     

    We use EJES not SDSF. I will greatly appreciate if anyone know to configure yaml file for EJES.

    Thank you
