Need some help with IEBCOPY,

Any help would be appreciated...Friday night and I would like to
Instead of using IEBCOPY to copy a bunch of files, you can use DFDSS and mask
the data to copy/dump them to tape and then perform another copy from the tape
to the other system. If the catalogs are not shared, and an alias is not
built, then the copy to the other system can use the rename or
You probably want to use IEBGENER if the files are truly flat files.

//SYSUT2 DD DSN=output.dsn,UNIT=TAPE,DISP=(,CATLG)

Howard,
You probably want IEBGENER if the files are sequential. You only want
IEBCOPY if the files are PDS's. Someone mentioned using DFDSS. If you have
FDR, you can use FDRCOPY.
To use IEBGENER, you just need a SYSUT1 DD for the input, SYSUT2 DD for the
output, and a SYSPRINT for the
Howard,
First, if by 'flat files' you mean sequential files, then I don't think IEBCOPY
is want you want. You should use IEBGENER to copy flat/sequential files.
But, for IEBCOPY, here's an example:
//S1 EXEC PGM=IEBCOPY
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*

Carole, RMM keeps last change details for all its records. However all the

Howard,
I would think that either the HCRT is not recognized, the USERID is not
authorized to use HCRT or that the HLQ is directed to dasd.
You need to check your ACS routines.
One way is to use ISMF Option 7.3 TEST.
Set up a quick test with the HQL or dataset and see what the SMS ACS

One more point. I went back through the IBM Main Archives and you had this

Do you know how you resolved your issue from Dec 2008? Did someone change
your HCD so HCRT is not valid?
Again thanks to all who chipped in on this.
The problem was for both IEBCOPY and IEBGENER an HLQ issue. It appears that I
