Ravi, thanks for your reply. I was told a "Softek" product may provide this function as part of data migration support. But no, we just have z/OS and a couple of Redbooks, Whitepapers and the ringing sound of IBM sales representatives that "z means zero downtime". Now we have to move the underlying volser of the TCPIP unix file system portion and face a sysplex shutdown! How can be that we have vast problem moving content of some physical storage volume?!?! With AIX no problem, with Linux no problem, with Windows no problem -- comes out of the box, I was doing myself a couple of times, really easy. And the best of breed OS ever in history suffers? We have to buy additional products for a simple task like that? I cannot believe! So, c'mon IBM, which spell do I have to type into my SYSIN card for IDCAMS? Thank you, cheers Michael
