Actually no matter what DSNAME you specify for TAPEx, when using FDRABR to dump
to DISK or TAPE, FDRABR always overrides with internally generated DSNames.

Take a look at this,

SELECT CATDSN=ZOS15.SMPE.**
Only hitch is that if you dump to a disk rather than tape the names on disk
won't be what you specify in the JCL.

I've exhausted the FDR docs, and searched... but I'm struggling to come
up with a way to do what I think is a simple task..
I need to create a dump of multiple datasets that
a)exist on multiple SMS volumes
b)accessed via catalog search
c)the output goes to one dataset on disk
Now in DFDSS, its simple, i just code something like
DUMP DATASET(INCLUDE(blah,blah)) OUTDD(OUT) etc etc
I've tried DSF, but it seems to insist on specifying all the input
volumes in JCL and a matching TAPEx DD for the output. Also looked as
FDRAPPL, as it allows catalog search (CATDSN=), but again seems to want
a separate output dataset for each input disk volume, and then even
worse it doesn't allow the output datasets on SMS volumes (FDR324 REASON
R)...
I've used FDR on and off for 20+ years (but not much in the past 5) and
realise that it has its roots as a volume based product, but i find it
hard to beleive that in the SMS world we now live in, it can't do this.
I just can't see a way to do it.. have I missed something?

Roy
