Step 1: FINDUCATS step (optional)

This step is part of the larger task of creating volume copies with EMC TimeFinder/Mirror. The FINDUCATS command identifies the ICF user catalogs that contain entries for the data sets on the source volumes to be copied.

Usually, you run this command once, before the initial copy. You might need to run this command again for a subsequent copy to verify that the ICF user catalogs that are specified in the COPY step are not changed.

FINDUCATS does not negate the need to specify pairs of source and target ICF catalogs in the COPY step.
