Thanks Scott. Going forward, when DSS creates the new dump data sets on
DASD, there's no problem. I was only trying to copy previous back ups to
DISK, which apparently can't be done.

Todd, this is not a stupid suggestion at all. Many (most?) of these data
sets contain back up copies of existing VSAM datasets, so restoring them
without a rename would be a problem, unless I:
- restore them to my test system (no shared catalogs)
- rerun DSS back up on test system, with output to
Thanks for the confirmation Andrew, this is as I suspected. I guess we'll
just have to wait for the tape data sets to roll off (they are all GDGs).

Good thought. The TSO TRANSMIT command can convert a DSS dump into an

Most certainly. Search the CBT file list for AWS and HET.

You may use TV (Tape to VSAM) function of DITTO/ESA.
If the tape block size is less than 32760 bytes, you can use TS (Tape to
Sequential data) function.
When you define the VSAM ESDS for over 32K tape block size, you have to
specify SPANNED parameter and large number of RECORDSIZE that fit the
