You can use IEBGENER to perform the following tasks:
1) Create a backup copy of a sequential data set, a member
of a partitioned data
set or PDSE or a UNIX system services (USS) file such as a
HFS file.
2)Produce a partitioned data set or PDSE, or a member of a
partitioned data set or
PDSE, from a sequential data set or a USS file.
3) Expand an existing partitioned data set or PDSE by
creating partitioned members
and merging them into the existing data set.
4) Produce an edited sequential or partitioned data set or
PDSE.
5) Manipulate data sets containing double-byte character
set data.
5) Print sequential data sets, members of partitioned data
sets or PDSEs or USS
files.
6) Reblock or change the logical record length of a data
