We use FDR (Innovation) to back up z/OS, z/VSE, z/VM and z/Linux DASD. Frank M.

All of my z/Linux DASD volumes are formatted for a VTOC on cylinder zero so that I can leverage the z/OS DFDSS backups of these volumes. No problem, however I am getting this one guest ready for DR and as such running DFDSS on z/OS to accomplish this. This particular guest has 2 volumes that do not have z/OS VTOC (Dedicating them in the Directory entry) therefore DFDSS receives the ADR307E: error message basically because there is no z/OS VTOC. I know I could use DDR on z/VM to get around this but the problem is that these volumes are in use and I need to attach them to whatever machine I am going to do the DDR from and cannot go to another LPAR because these particular volumes were not gen’ed to be accessible from any other LPAR but the production (separation requirement). So is there any way I can get these backed up given the above?
