Not exactly my situation: the change bits are off correctly then the datasets are dumped, but I want them turned on when the datasets are restored in the new sysplex.

So you have a slightly bad/failing disk. You dump it to tape. IBM replaces the HDA. You restore the tape image to the new disk. Then you toss the tape... NO, you just lost information... That volume is in an incremental backup scheme and you just turned off the change flag on an unknown number of datasets which now won't be backed up by the next incremental backup run... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ******************************************************** For information, services and offers, please visit our web site: http://www.klm.com.
