Hi

We have a number of user ZFS datasets,  in NON EXTENDED format , and
already has reached the 4Gbyte limit
Till now we have allocated a new extended format ZFS and copied into it
via USS copytree.


I would use PAX instead ... probably quicker.

I've used this rexx program to do copies from one file system to another in batch, but you certainly can do it interactively with the commands or running the rexx program in a shell. /* rexx */ /*=================================*/ fromdir = '/from_dir/' todir = '/service/' /*=================================*/ call syscalls 'ON' address syscall 'geteuid' uidval = retval say 'Current UID = 'uidval if uidval <> 0 then do say 'Attempting to set to UID=0' address syscall 'setreuid 0 0' uidval2 = retval if uidval2 <> 0 then do say 'Unable to set to UID=0' exit 12 end Else say 'New UID = 'uidval2 end address syscall 'chdir' fromdir say 'Copying files from' fromdir 'to' todir call bpxwunix 'pax -rwvCMX -p eW . ' todir

Can the REPRO do the same ?

I wouldn't.  Search the archives.  I have repro'd a zfs to a new zfs
and was able to mount and see the data, but someone else tried
it (to go to extended) and it didn't work.  Also remember a zfs is
a formatted data set.

Can I restore a NON extended into an extended ?

No.  There is no "DATACLAS" to assign / convert to on logical
restore.  Also this from the DFSMSdss Storage Admin Reference:

When performing a logical or physical data set restore operation of a VSAM
extended-format data set, the target data set allocation must be consistent with the source data set allocation as follows:

-   If the source is an extended-format VSAM, then the target must be an
extended-format VSAM.

   -   If the source is a compressed VSAM KSDS, then the target must be a
compressed VSAM KSDS.

   -   If the source is an alternate index for an extended-format KSDS,
then the target must be an alternate index for an extended-format KSDS.

   -   The target control interval size must be equal to the source.
