hi this is mahesh.

my problem is we will be migrateing unused datasets. but when ever we want to recall the data set using hrecall it is taking very huge time. is there any other way i which i can recall the data sets as fast as possible instead of hrecall.

It entirely depends on how FAST tape volumen gets mounted.

Hello,

HRECALL is the "fast" way. The good news is that it is automatic. Also, most systems have the ability to run the recall "in the background" so you can still use your terminal.

What do you consider "huge"? While you are waiting for the dataset(s) to be recalled, it can seem like a long time, but a few minutes is not usually considered unacceptable.

As Murali mentoins, your wait time may also depend on how quickly the volume containing yor data is mounted.

How is this related to COBOL?
