Hi,
I need to copy content of flat file (say File-A) to more than one VSAM file(Say File-B,File-C,File-D) . Is this possible through REPRO of IDCAMS. IF not is there some other way to do that?
Thanks |

If you have DFSORT installed then I would take a look at ICETOOL which can generate multiple copies of data. I believe that ICETOOL will only use one pass of the input data so would be far more efficient than running multiple IDCAMS steps. |

Ok will check it... One more doubt is , will DFSORT be able to operate on writing VSAM files ? |

If it would not, our senior contributors would not suggest it . . . |
