Assuming that you have made the changes to the z/VM system (if any are
required) so that it also understands the new device addresses, everything
will be fine once you get the backup job set up correctly for the VM volumes
(see below).

Make sure that you take Physical volume backups of the packs (not logical)
and restore them as FULL volume.  For VM volumes you (should) specify
CPVOLUME to let DSS know that it's playing with a VM volume :
3390 mod3:
DUMP -
     INDD(DASD)            -
     OUTDD(TAPE1)          -
     ADMINISTRATOR         -
     CONCURRENT            -
     CPVOLUME              -
     OPTIMIZE(4)           -
     TRKS(0,0,3338,14)

3390 mod9
DUMP -
     INDD(DASD)            -
     OUTDD(TAPE1)          -
     ADMINISTRATOR         -
     CONCURRENT            -
     CPVOLUME              -
     OPTIMIZE(4)           -
     TRKS(0,0,10016,14)


You can get a full description of how to do this type of copy on the VM list
and the Linux list has a similar one for copying the Linux volumes (which
doesn't use the CPVOLUME, it's just a full physical backup and restore)
