COPYDDN

Use this option to specify a DD statement name that points to an image copy data set that contains table data to be unloaded.

The data set organization rules for this option are the same as those for COPYDSN. However, with the COPYDDN option, you can concatenate data sets that have the same organization.

BMC AMI Unload concatenates VSAM data sets and dynamically reallocates with DISP=OLD unless VOL=PRIVATE is specified on the DD statement.

As an alternative to specifying an image copy data set name in your DD statement, you can use the OUTPUT command. You must place the OUTPUT command before the UNLD or UNLOAD statement in your SYSIN. For more information about this command, see OUTPUT statement and dynamic allocation of output data sets.
