Apologies if you have already seen this posting. I'm having problems seeing
posting as I only view thru the News group. I have NOMAIL set so I do not get email for any postings. I'm not sure if I also need to post to news group. Since we are not able to purchase something like FDR Instant, I'm looking for other ways to avoid having to clip volume labels. Has anyone had any experience copying volumes with DFDSS COPY with the dumpconditional and fastreplication keywords on a HDS 9900? Is Showdow Image invoked? Also what functionality does ShadowImage Flashcopy v2 Extension provide? What is the difference if I run DFDSS COPY with dumpconditional with and without this extension?
