VSAM. Aaaaah! *turns and runs away* You'll need a RECAT to force cataloging of all the renamed components in the right catalog. (That's why RENUNC(*) is recommended.)
As far as volumes...it's been so long since I've done a restore of a VSAM data set, and that was not in an SMS environment - so hardcoding of volumes was required (OUTDY(volser,unit)). SMS might help here, but I'll have to defer to others.
