Hello Radoslaw, ADABAS DBA and ADABAS Utilities are your best bet for starters. IIRC, you'll have to do an unload then a load. Have plenty of tapes handy. Oh, you should also check the pseudo-device types (like 8392) which have different block sizes and possibly better efficiency than the default 3390 definitions that SAG supplies
SAG is finally seeing the light and beginning to expose some (but not all, to my dismay) manuals outside of their customer-only support area. See http://developer.softwareag.com and check the links on the left. Do you know about the SAG-L listserv? There's a lot of good ADA/NAT/other SAG product knowledge over there. http://listserv.uark.edu/scripts/wa.exe?SUBED1=sag-l&A=1 to sign up. If you're going to be dealing a lot with ADA/NAT I highly recommend subscribing.
