:>I need to move some existing GDG datasets from tape to disk. Normally, I would create a new version of each generation (V00 to V01, etc.), however these are created by a product which records the dataset name when they are created, and uses the actual name (whatever.G0001V00) when referencing the dataset. I therefore have to end up with the same names. :>I can uncatalog the old dataset, and create the new dataset, in the same job; or I could create a new version, then later rename it. My main question is whether I need to do this in a specific order to avoid losing the oldest generation that exists? I don't think that rollout applies when explicitly using the generation numbers. Just prevent new generations from being created while doing the move. And talk to the vendor to provide a facility to edit the dsname. -- Binyamin Dissen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.dissensoftware.com Director, Dissen Software, Bar & Grill - Israel Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me, you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.
