here I am trying to explain in short.

REPRO


THE REPRO COMMAND IS USED TO COPY VSAM CLUSTERS, ALTERNATE INDEXES, CATALOGS AND NON-VSAM DATA Sets.

ICEMAN


The SORT program is used to sort data into a certain sequence or to merge from 2 to 100 previously sorted input data sets into 1 output data set.

Hope it clears your doubt.

Regards

Rupesh

This is a only a very small subset of all of the things you can do with DFSORT.

If you're not familiar with DFSORT and DFSORT's ICETOOL, I'd suggest reading through "z/OS DFSORT: Getting Started". It's an excellent tutorial, with lots of examples, that will show you all of the tasks you can perform with DFSORT, DFSORT's ICETOOL and DFSORT Symbols. You can access it online, along with all of the other DFSORT books, from:
