{SPAM?} Re: Coping the RES volume

Mon, 12 Jun 2006 09:58:13 -0700

Ed--The most sure way to copy SYSRES or any volume on VM is to use DDR.  If you are concerned about getting a super clean copy, shut down the system the input volume is on and either copy from another system, or use the stand alone DDR program.  Even without that, however, all you will do is have some incomplete console files or whatever else may have been running.  You would have to do a FORCE START at IPL if you are copying a running system.  No need to CPFORMAT anything ahead of time.  Here's what the commands look like:

DDR
IN input_address 3390
OUT output_address 3390
COPY ALL

This is assuming that you haven't been getting fancy and putting things like the directory and other CP owned areas on other volumes.  Unless you are sure of what you are doing DO NOT ipl the copied volume while the copy_from volume is running.

Hello Everyone,

        Is there away to copy a SYSRES volume and make it usable without
doing the CPformat first?

Or do I have to do a COPY ALL?

        I did a COPY CPVOL and am having a problem putting my alternate
directory on line.
