SMCOPY is part of the TSO Session Manager; are you using a logon proc that supports it?
>From ><https://www-01.ibm.com/servers/resourcelink/svc00100.nsf/pages/zOSV2R4sa320971/$file/ikjc200_v2r4.pdf>: "Session Manager keeps several records of the different things that happen during your terminal session - all the commands, instructions, and input you enter and all the output from commands and messages that the system issues. These records are streams" -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)

The input datasets are catalogued; the output is to be uncatalogued and written to a particular DASD volume. I figure to use LMCOPY for PDS members, and for flat files - since ISPF doesn't seem to have an analogous command for them - SMCOPY. But wait: Where's the SMCOPY syntax to specify an uncatalogued dataset on a DASD volume? I don't see it. There's something about sending the dataset to a "stream", but I don't know what a stream is. Is it a DD? Probably not; I'm sure IBM knows how to spell "DD". --- Bob Bridges, [email protected], cell 336 382-7313 /* How strange that there was once a time when Americans philosophized hotly, in the passionate assurance that their ideas would have practical consequences!
