TGTGDS specifies in what status, during a data set operation, that DFSMSdss is to place nonpreallocated SMS-managed GDG data sets:

DEFERRED: Specifies that the target data set is to be assigned the DEFERRED status.
ACTIVE: Specifies that the target data set is to be assigned the ACTIVE status, for example, rolled into the GDG base.
ROLLEDOFF: Specifies that the target data set is to be assigned the rolled-off status.
SOURCE/SRC: Specifies that the target data set is to be assigned the same status as that of the source data set.

Note:

If DELETE is specified without RENAMEUNCONDITIONAL and the source data set is an SMS-managed generation data set on a non-DFSMSdss dump conditioned volume, the TGTGDS keyword is ignored and the source GDS status is copied to the target.
If DELETE is specified without RENAMEUNCONDITIONAL and the source data set is an SMS-managed generation data set on a DFSMSdss dump conditioned volume, the DELETE keyword is ignored and the TGTGDS keyword will be honored.
The requested target status of generation data sets must not violate generation data group rules.

For more information about the default status when TGTGDS is not specified, see Restoring GDG data sets.
