Thanks, Alan. How about IDCAMS EXPORT / IMPORT? We are looking at what it would take to replace CA-FAVER. It is a good product, but we are looking at possible alternatives. IDCAMS is __slow__!

As far as I know, DF/dss "logical" processing is aware of datasets and "records" (i.e. blocks) but doesn't usually concern itself with the content of these datasets. There are two exceptions that I'm aware of: 1) DF/dss can change the amount of unused (pad) space in a dataset 2) DF/dss can change a PDS into a PDSE I believe that if you want to "reorganize" a VSAM dataset, you'll have to use VSAM REPRO (which consolidates split CIs and CAs).
