I have an exec I used to backup the res volume.

If anyone would like a copy of it, I would be happy to share it...

Adam,
I  get away with it too but I do CP Q SYSTEM first to see which userids have 
r/w mdisks on the sysres; I shutdown things like SFS servers that have an mdisk 
on the sysres before I flashcopy or DDR it.

Yeah, there already *IS* a covering minidisk, isn't there?

Question: is it actually safe to DDR the RES volume from a live system to 
another system?  I always *thought* that was one of those things that you 
usually got away with but weren't supposed to do, but I will admit to perhaps 
being conditioned by growing up in the Unix world, where doing that kinda stuff 
with mounted filesystems is a Bad Idea.  It would be very nice to know if it is 
in fact not risky; it will save me the time of going back after I've done all 
the user volumes, shutting down the system, and using standalone DDR on the RES 
volumes.
