In JCL, I use IEBCOPY to rename PDS but i's too long, whereas it's instantaneous with ISPF online.
Is it possible to do the same in JCL (invoking ISPF) ? |

Please explain how you use IEBCOPY to perform a rename operation.
Look at IDCAMS ALTER. |

| Won't a TSO RENAME or IDCAMS ALTER work just as well without all of the excess that comes along with using ISPF services in batch? |

Have a co-worker edit a member of a PDS
and at the same time, you try to rename it in an interactive TSO session
(what you incorrectly term ISPF online).
how instantaneous is it now? |

As far as i see it, this a pds copy with a member replace option.
Why you do that for a new dataset is not quite clear to me. |

| So, is there another option that just renames PDS, like "Rename" of ISPF ("R" in 3.4) ? |

Still instantaneous if you have sufficient RACF authorization and the dataset is non SMS managed |

could you explain to me,
what- RACF authority
- non-sms managed dsns
has to do with the inability to obtain exclusive on the ds.
(somebody else is already editing a member).
but then I - am just an old fart
- have faulty memory
- basic inability to read and comprehend
- probably have other ailments that impairs proper brain function
and is the cause of why I don't understand your post. |

| If you have access to RACF profile STGADMIN.DPDSRN.xxx you can rename non-sms datasets that are in use. If someone is using the dataset it is not recommended but it can be done |
