These event messages contain the physical file names for each catalog file. You will 
need to enter these file names in the VDP catalog by using the SMFIXUP utility. See 
the following example:
SMFIXUP USECATALOG $VDP11.ZSMSCAT.ANT $JETS.ZYS00000.A000WJOA
SMFIXUP USECATALOG $VDP11.ZSMSCAT.PENDOPS $JETS.ZYS00000.A000WJOJ
SMFIXUP USECATALOG $VDP11.ZSMSCAT.IDENTITY $JETS.ZYS00000.A000WJOG
SMFIXUP USECATALOG $VDP11.ZSMSCAT.VERSION $JETS.ZYS00000.A000WJOM
SMFIXUP USECATALOG $VDP11.ZSMSCAT.DEPOBJ $JETS.ZYS00000.A000WJOD
Finally, bring the VDP back to the UP state by issuing the following PUP or SCF 
commands:
For D-series systems:
PUP DOWN $VDP11
PUP UP $VDP11
For G-series systems:
SCF STOP $VDP11
SCF START $VDP11
Recovering Pool Process Catalog Files
If pool process catalog files need to be recovered, a TMFCOM RECOVER FILES 
command must be issued alone or as part of a wild card file set. If only certain files in 
the catalog need to be recovered, they must be named specifically. For example:
TMFCOM RECOVER FILES $catvol.ZSMSPnn.*,command-options
Caution. You must issue the USECATALOG commands in the order presented above, 
omitting any catalog files that did not need to be recovered. Failure to issue the commands in 
this order might result in corrupted catalogs, or lost data files, or an inoperable VDP.
