The 3592 tape media has IDCAMS REPRO and DFDSS DUMP datasets. The REPRO dataset could be copied and moved to VTL.

HIGHEST RETURN CODE IS 0008 FROM: TASK 001 The 3592 is Medea Type 7 and the VTL is Media Type 3. It seems that this error is occurring so as not to allow copying to smaller capacity media. However, VTL is a virtual tape with unlimited media size capacity. Restore from 3592 and re-dump to VTL is a lot of work, so we want to avoid this. Is there a way around this error?
