Erik, If MAINT is still logged on and you have an exact duplicate of your 510RES system available on another volume, you should be able to DDR COPY the first few cylinders from your new volume to your currently running 510RES volume and again use the virtual full volume device number of 123 for your current system.

Noal Lab Manager, San Diego Facility Office: (858) 537 - 3268 Cell: (858) 248 - 1172 -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Erik Janssen Sent: Thursday, July 07, 2005 11:41 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Releasing 510RES from system Thanks all for replying. Somebody mistakenly initted the 510RES volume with a z/OS VTOC. Thus damaging the volume and also preventing restoring a cpvolume dump. The system is still running so I'm looking for a way of starting ICKDSF to do a format of the volume to make it a cpvolume again so I can do a restore. I already tried the detach, but it failed and for some reason I thought there was another command for detaching cp owned volumes. Right now I cannot logon any user, only already running users (including maint) are still active. I've managed to format another volume as 510RES and do a restore to it from z/OS, so we'll probably end up ipling vm from that volume this weekend. Thank you, Erik Janssen. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
