Hi ITschak AMV"SH,
If you DFSMSdss DUMP (or FDR), TRS and FTP your Datasets to the new
mainframe, what is the benefit of this?
(That is, manually recreating these Datasets should not be necessary.)
Please post the code.

Thanks and regards,

This is a subject that was discussed here several times. As we (must)
prepare to discontinue our current mainframe (IBM stop licensing zPDT) and
be able to port to a different mainframe, we developed a program to
retrieve dataset allocation information and create the jcl to recreate it.
The trick is to run ftp on the local host and using CD and DIR commands.
The output is written to dataset allocated to OUTPUT dd.
If you like, I can post the code.
