COPYVOLID specifies that the volume serial number (VOLID) from the input DASD volume is to be copied to the output DASD volume. This applies to full copy operations and to tracks copy operations if track 0 (zero) is copied.
Note:
  1. DFSMSdss requires the COPYVOLID keyword for a full-volume copy operation of an SMS-managed input volume—unless you specify the DUMPCONDITIONING keyword.
  2. When the volume serial number is changed by using a COPYVOLID keyword, profiles are not built for the RACF-protected data sets on the target volume or for the RACF® DASDVOL for the RACF-protected DASD volume. When the volume serial number on a DASD volume is changed, the operator is notified. The operating system then initiates a demount of the volume.
  3. Exercise caution using COPYVOLID in a multiple task job step when two or more of the tasks are using the same output volume. If the output volume is made unavailable by the first task, all succeeding tasks that use the same output volume fail.
  4. COPYVOLID cannot be performed if there are permanent I/O errors or if CANCELERROR is specified. If TOLERATE(IOERROR) is honored, however, COPYVOLID is performed.
  5. You cannot use the COPYVOLID keyword with the DUMPCONDITIONING keyword.
