Hello,
just noticed that instead of using existing DCB parameters on old datasets, todsn still overwrites with his defaults if no dcb parameters explicitly specified. In contrast, /bin/cp leaves existing DCB parameters intact when overwritting.
Thank you very much in advance
Best regards Jenö
todsn overwrites DCB parameters on old datasets
Well, IMHO it would be better to keep existing attributes. With existing datasets, I never expected such behaviour (admitting I am no C programmer ), that's why I checked with /bin/cp. Furthermore, I see no advantage of forcing the default overwrite existing. Anyway, I am afraid I would forget to specify this extra parameter all over again. And, as I asked my collegaues (we are quite aged, you know ) - no one ever heard about this parameter before.
Thank you for the quick assistance.
Have a nice week-end - Jenö
