Unless of course you want to backup various members, then use IEBCOPY.

But of course we have no real idea of what you want because you have failed to tell us.

I guess the TS wants the PDS on a PC. So he can do the following :

create a XMIT file
send it to the pc
get a copy of XMIT Manager (free)
use XMIT manager to extract all the members (or part of them)

I assume that the PDS will contain text members.

IEBCOPY creates a simple PS containing the members; XMIT adds control-characters, removed by RECEIVE.
Depends on his needs...

IEBCOPY does create a PS, but NOT simple. It is a VB dataset with
control information for a subsequent IEBCOPY load operation.

XMIT creates a dataset with NETDATA layouts (look for IBM NETDATA).
And yes XMIT data contains control information (not control characters,
just like IEBCOPY data). So there are prgrams around to process that NETDATA data.

Using IEBCOPY for member selection means that the ouput has to be
a PDS.

XMIT creates a wrapper around a IEBCOPY format unloaded dataset
and invokes IEBCOPY itself for processing at least for PDS/PDSEs
