Question: Why we use export-import over repro?
Answer: There is much faster way to do the same:
- Use FAVER utility to take a back up (very fast). It will contain data as well as all definitions (base cluster, AIX, path, all parameters)
- XMIT dataset to hwre is has to go
- Use FAVER utility to restore it
Also, SORT utility is a faster tool to load VSAM than IDCAMS
