Here it depends as to what type of dasd the home directory lies on. IF it is on CKD dasd, we utilize our z/OS system running Dasd Backup Supervisor which creates FDR jobs to back up the entire volume. IF the home directory lies on ( or even if we wish to back up just the home directory off of CKD dasd ), we again utilize our z/OS system running FDR/Upstream server which connects to the linux image Upstream client, copies the home directory to a z/OS file which is then copied to tape.

Hello all,

Anyone on the list backup their users' linux image home directory? What process do you use?
