Dataset Repro dialog box
You use this dialog box to issue an IDCAMS REPRO request for the data set that you select in the Tivoli® Enterprise Portal. The dialog box displays options in the Repro and Merge/DBCS tabs that are located in the Options tab.
To learn about the standard capabilities of a dialog box, see Standard tabs in the dialog boxes of the Storage Toolkit. The topic includes a link to the Reference guides for commands that are used in the Storage Toolkit.
Option | Description |
---|---|
Target Dataset section | Specify the fully qualified name of the target data set in the Fully Qualified Dataset field. |
Source Dataset Copy Options section | |
Volume entries | Use this option to copy/merge a tape volume catalog to another tape volume catalog. Specify the entries of the source tape volume catalogs to be merged or copied in this field. |
Error limit | Type a failure limit in this field. Use this parameter to set a limit to the number of errors that REPRO copy tolerates. |
Replace | Select this option to indicate that a record in the source cluster is to replace a record in the target cluster when the source cluster is copied into the target cluster. |
Reuse | Select this option if the target data set is to be opened as a reusable data set. This parameter is valid only for VSAM data sets. |
Repro Range Attributes | Choose a From/To range or a Skip/Count range
or All of the records.
|
Option | Description |
---|---|
Merge Entries section | Mergecat: You cannot select this option
when Use DBCS support is selected. Select Mergecat
to specify that the source catalog entries are to be merged with the
target catalog entries and that the merged entries are to be deleted
from the source catalog upon a successful merge operation. You can specify the entries to be merged either as the list of Entries (entry names or generic names) or as a single Level of qualification.
|
Use DBCS support | Use this option to specify that bytes in the logical record contain DBCS characters. The Repro command checks to ensure the DBCS data meets DBCS criteria. This parameter cannot be specified with MERGECAT. |
Skip section | Use the Skip DBCS check options in this
section to indicate that characters between Offset1 and Offset2 are
not to be checked for DBCS criteria during Repro command processing.
You can specify several Offset1-Offset2 pairs here.
|
Shift section | Specify insertion of a DBCS shift in this section.
Select Insert Shift to specify offsets. If SO and SI characters
are not present, you must specify shift values. (By default, the logical
record is assumed to already contain SO and SI characters, and the Repro command
checks during copying to ensure that the DBCS data meets DBCS criteria.)
