Hi,
In my existing JCL, there are 3 different steps which are nothing but creating the backup data sets for 3 different PS files. I would like to know, can i create the backup for all those 3 files in a single step?
If i could, please tell me the utility name and some information about that.
If i could do this thing, it can avoid running a job for a long time.

Running one step or 3 steps should not significantly change the time required to copy the data. . .
