Usage notes

  • COPYGROUP operates same as COPYGRP when either the input or output is a PDSE data set. It can also copy, unload, and load just PDS and PS data sets.
  • When running in a z/OS® level that does not support an IEBCOPY COPYGROUP statement, IQIBUTIL converts it to a COPYGRP statement with identical parameters.
