What is the efficient way to copy data from a sequential file to VSAM file?
I need to copy some 2000 records from a sequential file (which contains around 300,000 records) to a VSAM file. |

| first you can sort and extract only the 2000 records, and then do the IDCAMS REPRO |

| There's no need to use sort and REPRO (two passes). You can use DFSORT to sort/extract the records and write them directly to a VSAM output file (one pass). |
