Hi Dave,

     HOWD:TSREL:/home/tsrel: man copytree
  copytree -- Make a copy of a file hierarchy while preserving all file 
attributes


  Format

  /samples/copytree [-afos] sourcedir [targetdir]

  Description

  copytree is a REXX sample that enables you to use a number of z/OS UNIX
  capabilities. Included is a recursive routine to descend a hierarchical
  directory. You can also use it to accomplish the following tasks:

  ▒   Retrieve and set attributes for files
  ▒   Read and write files
  ▒   Read and set access control lists (ACLs)

  copytree replicates a source tree starting under the source directory
  within a file system to a target directory. It:

  ▒   Tolerates errors when setting target attributes with messages.

  ▒   Tolerates errors in the source tree, skipping those files.

  ▒   Copies sparse files as sparse files.

  ▒   Handles both symbolic links and external links

  ▒   Does not cross mount points

  ▒   Preserves file links

Thanks!

Subject: Copy a directory structure with copying files. [ EXTERNAL ]

I need to copy a directory structure of a USS (zFS if this matters) from one 
LPAR to another. I looked at "tar" and "pax" and just can't see a way to do 
this. I will be changing the high level directory though.
For example The from directory:
/usr/local/productV1/*

To:
/usr/lpp/productV1/

I was hoping to "unPax" to the new directory with the entire directory 
structure.

Please help a Unix rookie..
