Mike Do the LPARS share the same catalog for the HFS files ?, if so you can create a new HFS file mount it and use the Unix cp command to copy the files across "cp -R /current /new/hfs/mount/point", once the copy has completed unmount the new hfs file. Go to the other lpar mount your new hfs and copy out whatever files/directories you need.
If the lpars do not share a catalog, we use ADRDSSU to dump the file and the use ADRDSSU on the other lpar to restore the hfs with a new name, then mount it and you can copy out what you need.

You should be able to get a copy of 'copytree' from the IBM UNIX Tools & Toys website but if you can't find it, contact me offline Hope this helps Roger ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Standard Bank email Disclaimer and confidentiality note This e-mail, its attachments and any rights attaching hereto are, unless the content clearly indicates otherwise, the property of Standard Bank Group Limited and its subsidiaries.
