Hi

Repro is basically a Copy command ,which is used to copy the data from one PS to another with help of IDCAMS

Here is the Example.

//IDCAM1 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//DDIN DD DSN='XXXX.XXXX.XXX1',DISP=SHR
//DDOUT DD DSN='XXXX.XXXX.XXX2',DISP=SHR
//SYSIN DD *
REPRO INFILE(DDIN) OUTFILE(DDOUT)
/*
//
Hope you understood the concept of REPRO.

Thanks

The REPRO command is well documented in the fine manual.

Hi kannag,

If you need to copy a PS to other. Similar to save as in Windows. We have a command REPRO for doing this.

We use the utility IDCAMS for this.

Simple way, is to give the PS to be copied in INDD and the ouput PS in OUTDD. Even multiple repro can be done using a single JCL by having INDD1,INDD2... to OUTDD1,OUTDD2...

You can use the above code to perform this.

If you still need more info, do come up with your doubts.
