We just unloaded z/VM 5.3 and would like to create an alternate RES and spool
pack. Current names are 530RES and 530SPL. Does someone have simple procedures
to create alternate res and alternate spool volumes so we can IPL off the
alternates and leave the original res and spool untouched. The
No need to vary them off.
The 530res pack in Maint's 123 mdisk and the 530spl is Maint's 122 mdisk.
DDR the 123 and 122 to another volume.
Here are the steps I suggested to one of my customers recently:
*1. Duplicate the current z/VM system volumes* :
1. DDR 530RES(maint's 123), 530W01

David,
it's easier than you might think.
I have done it several times with this procedure in user maint
1. attach new volumes to maint
2. copy all 530res, (if mod 3 530w01,530w02), 530pag and 530spl to new
volumes with DDR. You can of course also restore them from a backup.
