Hi Rex,
Yeah, I know.
That's why I do each one individually with my ISPF Editing tricks.

Hi David,

I think the issue is that James wants to move these datasets and prepend a new 
HLQ onto each of them without the need to rename each dataset individually.  
Unfortunately DFDSS doesn't provide that as an option.  I've occasionally 
wished for the same function, something akin to

COPY DS(INC(HLQ.**))     RENUNC(**,NEWHLQ.**)

But alas, DFDSS limits me to renaming each dataset individually if I'm changing 
the number of qualifiers.

Hi James,
You can use DFSMSdss to COPY with RENAME.
Here is an example:
//STEP001 EXEC PGM=ADRDSSU ,PARM='TYPRUN=NORUN'
//SYSPRINT DD  SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD  *
    COPY DS(                                                            - INCL( 
                                                      - HLQ.X                   
                               -
)                                                       -
)                                                            - RENUNC(          
                                              - (HLQ.X                          
                        -
NEWHLQ.HLQ.X)                                          -
)                                                        - CAT -
STORCLAS(STANDARD) -
OPT(4) -
SHR -
SPHERE -
    TOL(ENQF)

- You can only COPY 255 Datasets in one step.
I have a series of ISPF Edit tricks to generate the commands and interleave 
them.

What’s the solution to copying (actually moving)/ renaming hundreds
of sms managed datasets? I’ve looked for rexx execs to do this but
I’ve not come across anything. I’ve tried dfdss but changing the hlq
of sms datasets doesn’t seem to work for me since I want to add a hlq
not actually rename the hlq For example sys2 to newhlq.sys2. Perhaps
a two step approach? Any suggestions?
