REPRO

The REPRO command performs the following functions:

Copies VSAM and non-VSAM data sets. If the data set is a version 2 PDSE with generations, only the current generation of each member is copied.
Copies catalogs
Copies or merges tape volume catalogs
Splits integrated catalog facility catalog entries between two catalogs
Splits entries from an integrated catalog facility master catalog into another integrated catalog facility catalog
Merges integrated catalog facility catalog entries into another integrated catalog facility user catalog.

Note:

When REPRO is used with an encrypted data set for key rotation purposes, the target data set would have a new key label. End of change

Restriction: Access Method Services does not use RLS. If an RLS keyword is specified on the DD statement of a file to be opened by AMS, the keyword will be ignored and the file will be opened and accessed in non-RLS mode.
