DASD vs. DISK vs. Migrated Should be DASD vs. TAPE vs. MIGRATED
I do not think you can rename if the file is TAPE or Migrated. For Migrated you might need recalls Note: Depending on the number of datasets, you may wish to have SAY statements added SAY input-dsn IS BEING RENAMED TO new-dsn SAY Rename had a return code of RC And you may wish to run in batch.
