In JES2, I have 11 SPOOL volumes but the last two I added were mod 9's, whereas, the others are mod 3's. I did not mean to put the SPOOL volumes on mod 9's. I have issued the drain ($PSPOOLA) to drain that volume but there is obviously a lot of stuff on it and I don't know how long it will take to drain! After it drains, I will run jobs to INIT, FORMAT, and START the new SPOOLA (which will be a mod 3).
My question is: Can I use the $MSPL to migrate the contents of SPOOLA to a differently named SPOOL volume(say, SPOOLC)? I'm assuming , in that case, I would only need to INIT a mod 3 with a different name. I'm thinking that might be a better way to get rid of the mod 9 and implement the mod 3 more quickly. Some of the "stuff" on SPOOLA is EXECUTING rather than, for example, AWAITING HARDCOPY. There is also the issue of the differing size of the packs (mod 9 vs mod 3). Anne D.
