Hi Dave,
Thanks for your reply.
When I want to transfer a full account, I perform a account-save to a pseudo
tape and then on universe I use D3RESTORE which work good.
In this case, I got a pseudo tape with a t-dump structure and for it there
is no tool into universe.
I can look into the code of D3RESTORE and transform it to a D3TLOAD but
before do it I search the community for any advice.
I'm surprised that nobody use diskfile as a pseudotape, when I read the uv's
doc I understand that must be possible but how to define it ?
Regards.
Manu
