Input and Output

IEHMOVE uses the following input:

One or more partitioned, sequential or BDAM data sets, which contain the data to be moved, copied, or merged into an output data set.
A control data set, which contains utility control statements that are used to control the functions of the program.
A work data set, which is a work area used by IEHMOVE.

IEHMOVE does not support VIO (virtual input/output) data sets.

IEHMOVE produces the following output:

An output data set, which is the result of the move, copy, or merge operation.
A message data set, that contains informational messages (for example, the names of moved or copied data sets) and error messages, if applicable.

If IEHMOVE is invoked from an application program, you can dynamically allocate the devices and data sets by issuing SVC 99 before calling IEHMOVE.
