You shouldn’t have to do a manual compare. There are commands available such
as diff and find. Examples:
Show differences: diff -s /prod/root /test/root
Find symbolic links: find /prod/root -type l

Subject: Copy OMVS file system after service to production system
Hello,
I have followed the suggested way to make copy root file
system before applying service.
But we have couple of z/OS running with same version of OS
level (example z/OS 1.8). In this we have test system, where we apply
RSU and test it. We also have couple of production system with same OS
level. In production system there might be changes in sub directories
and Symbolic link.
So the problem is, If I just copy the root file system from test system
to production system after applying service on test root file system,
there might be a chances to loose some symbolic link and sub directories.
The solution which I can think of is, manually checking each of the
production system and note all the sub directories and symbolic detail.
Is there any other way, which can reduce my lots of manual effort and
make process easy.
Regards

system after that.
How was your system originally installed? How was the last service
done? In paricular, is your root the original target or a copy?
As others have pointed out, you should never install service on the
running system. You should have a deployment plan for either rotating
among a set of target libraries or for cloning target libraries,
including Unix file systems.
