Yes - relabel the volume.. it was unnecessary to label and format the new volume in the first place - you could have just done the DDR and run CPFMTXA to relabel it.
If you really needed to IPL from it - you'd likely need to change the volume to 54GRES first.. (and relabel the 'real' 54GRES to something else) Scott On Fri, Sep 4, 2009 at 10:12 AM, Howard Rifkind <vmes...@yahoo.com> wrote: > Hello all, > > > > I had been asked to make a backup copy of the SYSRES volume, volulme id > 54GRES, and was provide with a DASD address of 6027 and a new volume id > of 54GBRS. > > > > I did a CPFMTXA on 6027 with the volume id of 54GBRS and formatted the > entire volume as PERM. > > > > I then ran DDR and did a COPY ALL and that worked with out any problems. > > > > Of course now the volume which was 54GBRS is now 54GRES. > > > > Now there are two volumes with the same volume id and the only way to > identify which is which is by the DASD address. > > > > This seems to me to now present a problem. > > > > Should I now go and re label the back up volume to 54GBRS? > > > > What is the best way to handle this and how would we go ahead and test the > backup SYSRES? > > > > Thanks. > >
