We did a migration just a few months back. We only run Linux under z/VM, all of our z/OS images run in their own lpars. We used some z/OS software (TDMF) to move the z/VM volumes. It did require us to bring down the z/VM lpars during the move.
Paul Feller AIT Mainframe Technical Support From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU] On Behalf Of Billy Bingham Sent: Tuesday, January 25, 2011 6:08 AM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: DASD Subsystem Migration This email was originally about FDRPAS, but I have changed the subject to reflect a more broader subject. What do other shops use when they have to migrate their VM system to a new DASD subsystem. Say you've installed a DS8300 and you need to migrate from a DS6800. What do you use? Thanks, Billy
