Issue/Introduction

Can a Detector for Db2 for z/OS (PDT) PDTDSCPY execution copy multiple input Datastores into a single output Datastore?

Resolution

The PDTDSCPY job can only copy 1 input Datastore into an output Datastore. If the job is run more than once using a different input Datastore
each time, the contents of the output Datastore will be overlaid for each run by the input Datastore named in the IVCAT/IDST parameters.
If multiple Datastores (IVCAT/IDST parameters) are entered into the SYSIN DD card, the last IVCAT/IDST Datastore will be copied into the output Datastore.
