You can try copying the GDG to a V01 gen //STEP1 EXEC PGM=IEBGENER //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSUT1 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=currentGDG.GxxxxV00 //SYSUT2 DD DISP=(,CATLG,DELETE),UNIT=tape, // DSN=currentGDG.GxxxxV01 //SYSIN DD DUMMY
You are replacing the GDG number with the next version of the same GDG number. Wild shot but might work. It should be located right where you want it. And it is accessible as a GDG(0) if that is the correct position.
