My apologies for not responding earlier, but I wanted to try the AMS REPRO first. Unfortunately, I didn't have time for this until now.
First, regarding. more detail in my original post. I can understand, and usually post all information I think might help. This time, I probably should have just asked if there is an option to convert from non-EF to EF format during a DSS RESTORE. I promise to try to do better next time ;-) I allocated a new zFS cluster making sure it is in extended format, then I ran an AMS REPRO (none of the zFSs was mounted). Next, I mounted both file systems and comapred the outcome of a "ls -alER", as well as some randomly chosen files. This all compares equal, so I'm pretty sure the copy worked well. The AMS copy of the 4GiB data set ran for only 6 minutes. A COPYTREE done previously ran for some 45 minutes. -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
