Cabinet copy
The overhead incurred when copying a large number of small spaces can be a significant performance inhibitor. Recovery Management support for cabinet copies allows you to copy all the spaces in a object set into a single data set called a cabinet file. The cabinet file is allocated and deallocated only once, regardless of the number of objects that are copied to or recovered from the cabinet file. Because file header and trailer records, including the EOF markers, are omitted from cabinet output files, performance is greatly improved. The cabinet files can be copied to either DASD or tape.
