SYS1
specifies that DFSMSdss is to allow data sets with a high-level qualifier of SYS1 to be copied to a preallocated target and that SYS1 data sets can be deleted and uncataloged. SYS1.VVDS and SYS1.VTOCIX data sets cannot be copied, deleted, or uncataloged. To specify PROCESS(SYS1), RACF® authorization may be required.
UNDEFinedsorg
PROCESS also specifies that DFSMSdss allow data sets with undefined data set organizations to be copied to an unlike target with a larger capacity. Refer to Table 1 and Table 2 for the action taken by DFSMSdss.
Note: Even though the data is being copied to a device with a larger track capacity, the data may not fit on the output device. For example, if the source device is a 3380, and the output device is a 3390 and the data set’s block size is less than 277 bytes, a track on the target cannot contain as much data as a track on the source and the message ADR366W (Invalid Track Format) is issued.

For more information about RACF authorization, see Protecting DFSMSdss functions.
