Programmer response

To convert a unrecoverable catalog into a recoverable catalog, you must export each VSAM data set from the unrecoverable catalog, then import it into the newly defined recoverable catalog. To convert a recoverable catalog into a unrecoverable catalog or to copy a recoverable catalog into a recoverable catalog, you can either export each VSAM data set from the source catalog and then import it into the target catalog or use the EXPORTRA/IMPORTRA commands to accomplish the same thing on a volume basis.
