Re: DFDSS
What does the manual say? If it does not mention it then that is a pretty big hint.
The problem I have is that people can explain things quickly but I can only comprehend slowly.

Re: DFDSS
Are you doing a COPY or DUMP / RESTORE?
Is it a physical or logical operation?
Which options of the DF/DSS command are being used?
There are multiple ways to run DF/DSS and hence the answer to your query is likely to vary -- for example, a physical dump / restore is going to put the data back the way it was on the source volume.

Re: DFDSS
it will consolidate extents for LOGICAL processing ...
( that' s what a quick test showed )
it will not meddle with the dataset content
so no VSAM reorganization

When I tell somebody to RTFM or STFW I usually have the page open in another tab/window of my browser,
so that I am sure that the information requested can be reached with a very small effort
