If you unmount the filesystem you dumped to, yes. But, you have t

Long term, setting up Bacula would probably be a Good Thing, but probably
doesn't help much in this scenario, o

Hi
Further explanation. Here is my dilemma in a nut shell:
I have a z/Linux volume on a guest that does not have a z/OS VTOC. We
typically use DFDSS on z/OS to back the

DDR doesn’t care about VTOCs or anything. It simply copies whatever is there. A
very useful trait in many cases.

Also do you know if DDR cares
