I quoted the whole of your message because it hasn't been seen by
the majority of IBM-Main readers. You should join the Listserv so you
can post to it, even if you continue to read it via Usenet. See the
instructions at the end of this (or almost any other) post.
As to solutions, have you considered copying the disk volume (or
the DF/DSS dump of it) to DVD and snearkernetting it to the new machine?
Also, you mention that the old server "has only internal disk".
If you can accept the downtime, you can probably open the old server and
either temporarily install a new disk to copy to, or take the old disk
out and temporarily install it in the new server.

There may be another problem. What level of z/OS are you trying to
migrate? What are you migrating from (e.g., an M/P 3000)?
This may be more of a painful migration than you are expecting.

Steve Thompson
