Bill,

Directing meta data to always accessible disk storage
is a good idea anyway. And your technique with the
INCLUDE statement is how we recommend customers do that.
(See Chapter 3 of the User's Guide.)

But....something still doesn't seem right here...

Even if the meta data is on tape... it should work...
It just may take a little while for the meta data to be
retrieved and filled in on those screens... but it should work.

I would open a call with IBM support.

Thanks,

Del
