I have to move some directory trees from one file system location to

The tree is rather complex (dozen directories, hundreds files) and some
files do have extended attributes.
My goal is to preserve all the metadata like files ownership, FSP, ACL,
tags, audit flags, etc.
I tried to use pax
Wouldn't it be nice if z/OS supported virtual disks, akin to .iso or .dmg?
(Idea?)
Yes, it would be nice. As many other features which I don't need now.
*But* some of the information you need to preserve probably resides
outside the filesystem, such as ACL, tags, audit flags, etc., even as
a snapshot copy of a CKD DASD might not preserve catalog and
RACF information.
I don't think so. All of the metadata are moved with ZFS dataset and
exist even if you mount it in another z/OS system.
Regarding .iso images - it would be good to upload a CD. Or download
some USS tree.
However in my case the goal is to move some tree to another location,
despite of physical ZFS boundaries. Whole ZFS can be easily copied using
IDCAMS or ADRDSSU, etc.
BTW, for record purposes: -p e and -x pax do the job.
-x pax is relatively new archive format and include -o saveext. This is
for -w archive
-p e reads all the attributes, acl's, etc. This is for -r archive
It is also possible to use copy mode
pax -rw -p e source dest
Thanks for the hint!
