Rex,
I tried your suggestion. I tried copying the tape to another tape using
DCB=BLKSIZE=27998. However I got the same result :ADR331E (001)-CPYD (01),
OUTPUT BLKSIZE 27998 FOR DATA SET ON DDNAME COPY1 IS SMALER THAN INPUT BLKSIZE
262144.

John,
Based on error ADR331E, it appears that the only way you could do this would be
if you had created the original tape backup using a block size of 32K - or
27998. That message explicitly states that you cannot copy a dump dataset to
something with a smaller block size.

Subject: COPYING DFDSS TAPE TO DASD USING COPYDUMP - ADR331E
I am trying to copy a volume backup (which was created by DFDSS) to disk,
using DFDSS. However I am encountering problems doing so.I tried using
DCB=BLKSIZE=32760 to no avail. I tried running the job without the DCB and it
returned the same result (ADR324E). According to the doc(SC23-6868-01) this is
feasible:
"With the COPYDUMP command, you can make from 1 to 255 copies
ofDFSMSdss-produced dump data. The data to be copied, a sequential data set,
canbe on a tape or a DASD volume, and copies can be written to a tape or a
DASDvolume."
Here is my job :
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=ADRDSSU,REGION=0M,TIME=1440,PARM='UTILMSG=YES' //SYSPRINT DD
SYSOUT=* //BACKUP DD DISP=OLD,
//
DSN=HDFQ.DFDSS.TSB063.COPY1.WEEK(0) //COPY1 DD
DISP=(,CATLG,DELETE), //
DSN=SYS1.DFDSS.COPYTAPE, //
UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=SPARE1,, //
SPACE=(CYL,(3200,20),RLSE),DCB=BLKSIZE=32760 //SYSIN DD *

Can someone advise me how to fix the problem?
Thanks.
