Andy,

In your original post I didn't realise you wanted to rename the datasets.
Merging would mean that you don't have to rename anything. 

Copies of the current catalogs would have to be imported into your system
and appropriate RACF rules defined. If it is for archive purposes then I
don't think you have to copy the existing Security rules.

I like the idea of archived data being managed by archive software. Looking
for the copy of that DCOLLECT three years down the track not be fun.

Ron
