if you are running this under z/VM you can just do a cpfmtxa and just change the volser

Is there a way to rename a volume? I'm testing a DR scenario. I've formatted a volume under ZM as UPST01, attached it to Linux (Redhat 5) and did lsdasd 0.0.0201(ECKD) at ( 94: 0) is dasda : active at blocksize 4096, 1802880 blocks, 7042 MB 0.0.2201(ECKD) at ( 94: 4) is dasdb : n/f The: dasdfmt -y -b 4096 -d cdl -f /dev/dasdb -l UPST01 Now I need to build 3 partitions so I created fdasdb.conf [2,2134] [2135,12481] [12482,last] and issued fdasd -c /fdasdb.conf /dev/dasdb This all worked fine but now the volume is labeled 0x2202. The fdasd command will not let you keep the volser unless you do the entire volume using -a. So OK, is there a better way or can I just simply rename it back to UPST01 somehow?
