David and all,

Thanks for information.
The 2nd level system spool pack came up as CP owned pack  addition to 1st 
level spool pack.
 So, I deleted the 2nd level spool pack from system config  on the 1st 
level system and ipled 1st level
and the second level successfully with the spool files.

Thanks,

Ann

Re: detach spool pack from system






I agree with the procedure, but I'm thinking the spool may be hosed for 
the 2nd level system if the 1st level has written spool blocks to it. 
Maybe it's best to consider this as a do over for the 2nd level system and 
let the pack just live on 1st level.
hey an extra spool volume isn't going to hurt.

No.  The Official Answer is to 
1. Drain the volume
2. SPXTAPE DUMP all spool files to tape
3. Update SYSTEM CONFIG to remove the now-drained volume
4. IPL CLEAN
5. SPXTAPE LOAD all the spool file back.

You can be more selective and avoid an IPL by using Mark Lorenc's SPFPACK 
utility from the VM Download Library.  Details at
