I'm pretty sure I'm not following your plan... If you copy via HCD to your DR disk, you still won't have your IODF/IOCDS aligned unless you never refresh that disk. We replicate our disk to a warm site. When we first built our DR environment (local z9 -> remote z10), we performed part of the migration actions to get an IOCDS to POR and an IODF that matched the hardware. Once we IPL'd the z10 for the first time, I went in an cleaned up all the garbage from the migration and created a new IODF/IOCDS set. Then I copied the IODF, tersed it, and FTP'd it to my PC and back to my local z9. That way I have a DR IODF on my local disk that matches my remote definitions and it replicates with everything else. Are you not refreshing your D9esy1 volume ??? That seems like a lot of complexity and wasted space to preserve an IODF. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
