Hi Yifat,
When FDRCOPY copies a data set track it does a physical track copy and does not decompress the data when doing so. Joseph Butz [email protected] -------- Original Message -------- Subject: FDRCOPY behavior when copying SMS compressed data sets Date: Mon, 7 Feb 2011 16:03:27 +0200 From: Yifat Oren <mailto:[email protected]> <[email protected]> Reply-To: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <mailto:[email protected]> <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Newsgroups: bit.listserv.ibm-main Hi, When DFDSS makes a logical copy of an SMS-compressed data set (either sequential or VSAM) - it tries to copy it as-is ("track image") without decompressing and re-compressing the data. I wonder, does FDRCOPY behave in a similar manner?
