Linda, Thanks for your response, that makes more sense now. I thought perhaps I was doing something incorrectly. But since you have a similar experience, I will just add to my notes for the future that this is just one of those time consuming processes that will probably get time outs.
Now, all I have to worry about is space for the receiving HFS. :-D Lizette [>] --> Snip Like any other IP process, speed is determined by a number of things, bandwidth, sever load, number of hops, etc. I pulled down 2 years worth of maint for a 1.4 system a couple of years or so and it took a liitle over 17 hours and broke on timeouts a bunch of times. I just followed the directions in the JCL each time I restarted and it finally finished. I was fine. When I brought my 1.8 ServerPac home it only took 11 hours and only broke on time outs a couple of times.
