That is because we share the sysres set with our read only zFS files across sysplex boundaries in one environment and I always IPL in the sandbox first for testing. The maintenance ZFS files are mounted R/W and we clone from there, so that is what left us exposed. But I think this entire problem stemmed from the fact that FDR (which I use for my cloning) does not quiesce a ZFS when you use HFS=QUIESCE as I thought it would (hopefully Innovation adds this support soon) on the copy as it does for HFS. DFSMSdss automatically quiesces both HFS and zFS (I talked about this a couple of months ago in a another thread). When I ran into this problem I not only put on the PTF and enabled the support in the ZFS parms, I also added ZFSADM QUIESCE and UNQUIESCE steps to my cloning JCL before and after the zFS copy step.
