Any way to rename using BPXWDYN ?

[RNTH]

Hi All,

Could anyone of you please help me, if there is a way to rename a dataset using BPXWDYN

I have a scenario where I need to rename the datasets dynamically.

Thanks

BPXWDYN is the USS (Unix System Services) interface to SVC99 (Dynamic Allocation & Output). (But you probably knew that already)

RENAMES? - hmm.. what is it exactly your trying to accomplish within/under a BPX 'Address space' ?.

Cannot you use MV (move or rename) or the BPX1REN ASSEMBLER CALL ???

Let me know

Why not either:

1. Use the TSO RENAME command within an IKJTSOEV/IKJEFTSR call.

2. Use an IDCAMS ALTER command within an IDCAMS call.
