If so how? Does DFSMS DSS have an option for card-image output? Does zVM have an option for virtual tape drives? Is there a version of DFSMS DSS that runs under CMS? If the answer to all three is no, then I don't see how to do it without a physical link or zVM on the old system. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)
