Hi, A big thanks to all who helped me !! We had a perfect touch down yesterday. All the Three LPARs were moved to the new Z10 BC , SNA and TCPIP connections and all.
Had some last minute problems with TCPIP in the Linux images on ZVM. Apparently I totally glossed over the VSWITCH settings.

The physical restore will overwrite the VTOC you created with ICKDSF. If you don't have a running system connected to the new dasd, you can do a Stand Alone ICKDSF and Stand Alone ADRDSSU.
