use DFSORT to sort, drop your dups and load to the vsam file.
lots of examples in the dfsort/utilities forum |

Hi ,
KSDS cannot take duplicates in its key region, rest ESDS and RRDS can take , so it all boils down to what type of VSAM ds u r using, can u get back with the type of VSAM file u use ???

You can load VSAM file using a PS file which contains duplicate records but duplicates wont get loaded in KSDS file.
There is a parameter named ELIMIT which can control the number of "error records " REPRO will ignore. An error record can be a duplicate.
If the limit specified in ELIMIT is exceeded ( if number of duplicates are more than ELIMIT) then REPRO command will be terminate with an error. |
