Hi Dave, Thanks for your reply.
When I want to transfer a full account, I perform a account-save to a pseudo tape and then on universe I use D3RESTORE which work good. In this case, I got a pseudo tape with a t-dump structure and for it there is no tool into universe. I can look into the code of D3RESTORE and transform it to a D3TLOAD but before do it I search the community for any advice. I'm surprised that nobody use diskfile as a pseudotape, when I read the uv's doc I understand that must be possible but how to define it ? Regards.
