I haven't tested it myself, but what I would hope is that it works like unix utilities, where the file you specify could actually be a directory.

It is pretty common when using tar etc. to set the working directory, and specify e.g. "." (a dot) to select the current directory, or specify a subdirectory name.

You can then restore to a different location by setting a different working directory before the restore, i.e. all names are relative to the working directory.

the starting point for the DUMP operation, then use INCLUDE to _explicitly_
specify the files I want. The available documentation states:
"DFSMSdss does not provide wildcard support when processing UNIX files."
which, for my purposes, is a complete show-stopper.
