AW: Re: Copy a directory structure with copying files.
I'm sorry for the bad formatting. Trying again I'm adding some pax options as follows: a) I want the target to inherit all source attributes: ==> pax -rwE -pe -XCM source target b) I want the target to keep source attributes, except for ACLs (if an) which should be set baset on the target environment's ACLs: ==> pax -rwE -ppx -XCM source target I like to see what's been copied, therefore the -E option And don't forget that you may need appropriate rights, depending on what you intend to do. E.g. setting extended attributes (APF, program controlles, sharelib) require access to BPX.FILEATTR profiles. copytree can be much lower than pax. Both are much slower that an IDCAMS REPRO, which is my preferred option *if* the part being copied is contained in a separate file system. -- Peter Hunkeler -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN

Ok; in my earlier reply I misread the Subject: line, "with copying" as "without copying".

Re: Copy a directory structure with copying files.
An IBMer gave me this process, works great moving USS stuff around. Adjust to your needs. Write it // SET PAX1='sh cd /tmp; pax -wvf' // SET PAX2='./*.*' //MAKEIT EXEC PGM=IEFBR14 //OUTMVS DD DSN=CICS.BKUP, // DISP=(MOD,KEEP,KEEP), // RECFM=U,BLKSIZE=32760, // SPACE=(CYL,(100)), // UNIT=3390 //S3 EXEC PGM=BPXBATCH, // REGION=0M, // PARM='&PAX1 //\''CICS.BKUP\'' &PAX2' (xmit/ftp it) Read it // SET PAX1='sh cd /u/play; pax -rvf' // SET PAX2='./test.txt' //S3 EXEC PGM=BPXBATCH, // REGION=0M, // PARM='&PAX1 //\''CICS.BKUP\'' &PAX2' //STDOUT DD SYSOUT=* //STDERR DD SYSOUT=* -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of John McKown Sent: Monday, October 05, 2015 3:12 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: Copy a directory structure with copying files.

Re: Copy a directory structure with copying files.
Dave, Be careful. /usr/lpp is part of the IBM supplied root file system. You should not be making any changes in there outside of smpe. If you do add directories there, it will be on you to carry that forward with future z/OS maintenance. _ Dave Jousma Assistant Vice President, Mainframe Engineering david.jou...@53.com 1830 East Paris, Grand Rapids, MI 49546 MD RSCB2H p 616.653.8429 f 616.653.2717 -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Dave Crowley Sent: Monday, October 05, 2015 12:43 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Copy a directory structure with copying files.

Re: Copy a directory structure with copying files.
Hi Dave, HOWD:TSREL:/home/tsrel: man copytree copytree -- Make a copy of a file hierarchy while preserving all file attributes Format /samples/copytree [-afos] sourcedir [targetdir] Description copytree is a REXX sample that enables you to use a number of z/OS UNIX capabilities. Included is a recursive routine to descend a hierarchical directory. You can also use it to accomplish the following tasks: ▒ Retrieve and set attributes for files ▒ Read and write files ▒ Read and set access control lists (ACLs) copytree replicates a source tree starting under the source directory within a file system to a target directory. It: ▒ Tolerates errors when setting target attributes with messages. ▒ Tolerates errors in the source tree, skipping those files. ▒ Copies sparse files as sparse files. ▒ Handles both symbolic links and external links ▒ Does not cross mount points ▒ Preserves file links Thanks!
