This is the JCL I use to do a pack to pack copy of our IPL pack: //COPY1 EXEC PGM=ADRDSSU,REGION=4096K,TIME=(1440 //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=(*,,STD) //DASDIN DD UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=D83TL9,DISP=SHR //DASDOUT DD UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=D83RL9,DISP=SHR //SYSIN DD * COPY INDD(DASDIN) OUTDD(DASDOUT) CONCURRENT - ALLDATA(*) PURGE
This copies everything, including the IPL record. RACF needs to be set up appropriately to allow access to all datasets on the pack, or you can use the ADMIN statement to allow access, if you have the appropriate FACILITY class enabled. And I may be missing something, or you may be using some sort of addon to the HMC I'm unfamiliar with, but you need to specify the device address of the IPL pack to IPL, not the volser. --- Kevin McKenzie External Phone: 845-435-8282, Tie-line: 8-295-8282 z/OS BCP SVT, Dept FXKA, Bldg 706/2D38 larry macioce <[email protected]> Sent by: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> 03/23/2009 11:51 AM Please respond to IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> To [email protected] cc Subject Re: Question on creating a maint pack Another question. If I do a pack to pack copy do I still need to put the ipl record on the new pack or will those copy too?thanks On Mon, Mar 23, 2009 at 11:28 AM, Kevin Mckenzie <[email protected]>wrote: > You can do a pack-to-pack copy.
