Allocate\COPY VSAM Cluster
Delete\Rename a Dataset, Cluster, Path, or Alternate Index etc.. |

Hi Expat,
Actualy I have IAM dataset utility option at my shop like below. Which we use for above mentioned tasks.
| Code: |
--------------------------- IAM PRIMARY OPTION MENU ---------------------------
OPTION ===>
I - Allocate (DEFINE) a new IAM Dataset Ver 8.1/12P
V - Allocate (DEFINE) a new VSAM Cluster
D - Delete a Dataset, Cluster, Path, or Alternate Index
C - Copy an IAM Dataset, VSAM KSDS, or VSAM ESDS
M - Move an IAM Dataset, VSAM KSDS, or VSAM ESDS
R - Rename a Dataset, Cluster, Path, or Alternate Index
U - Invoke an IAM Utility program
blank - Display IAM Dataset or VSAM Cluster Information
Enter dataset name (required for all options except U)
Dataset Name ===>
Dataset Type ===> C C=Cluster X=AIX P=Path (options I, V Only)
Enter Model or New dsname (optional for options I and V, required for option R)
Model|Newname ===>
Delete Confirmation ===> YES Yes|No

Actually, almost all of those are just a front end for IDCAMS, or the IDP equivilent.
IDCAMS can be used to process IAM datasets and VSAM datasets. |
