SORT, IEBGENER, or any other utility that copies data

yadav2005,
| Code: |
//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=ICEMAN
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DSN=YOUR TAPE DATASET,
// DISP=SHR
//SORTOUT DD DSN=your output dasd dataset,
// DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),
// UNIT=SYSDA,
// SPACE=(CYL,(X,Y),RLSE)
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY
/*
|
Since it is a tape dataset it might be huge , so I suggest that you only copy a few thousand of records
Use stopaft parm to stop copying after a few thousand records
| Code: | OPTION STOPAFT=5000
SORT FIELDS=COPY |
This will copy the first 5000 records to dasd
Hope this helps...
