Generating multiple output image copies

One output image copy data set is produced for each IC subcommand that is specified.

The product imposes no limit on the number of duplicate image copies that can be produced simultaneously.

The example below shows a request to make three image copy data sets for each area within the database. The first and second image copy data sets are written to tape devices and are recorded in the system catalog. The third image copy is written to an existing catalogued data set and overwrites the prior contents of the data set.

REORGANIZE DBD=dbdname,IAREA=ALL, ...
  IC DSNAME='dataset-name1-mask',
     DISP=(NEW,CATLG),UNIT=TAPE
  IC DSNAME='dataset-name2-mask',
     DISP=(NEW,CATLG),UNIT=TAPE
  IC DSNAME='dataset-name3-mask',DISP=SHR
