What is the advantage of having the ShadowImage Flashcopy V2
Extension? Our mainframe has all its data on a HDS 9900V box. If I
run DFDSS Copy full with the dumpconditional keyword without the
extension is ShadowImage still being invoked on the box?
Sorry, no. COPY with DUMPCONDITIONAL will do a normal I/O read/write
copy of the volume, slowly.
If you add the FASTREPLICATION operand, and FlashCopy is available, then
it will be flashed, quickly.
ShadowImage without the FlashCopy extension is not supported by DFSMSdss.
