Hi Dave,
HOWD:TSREL:/home/tsrel: man copytree
copytree -- Make a copy of a file hierarchy while preserving all file
attributes
Format
/samples/copytree [-afos] sourcedir [targetdir]
Description
copytree is a REXX sample that enables you to use a number of z/OS UNIX
capabilities. Included is a recursive routine to descend a hierarchical
directory. You can also use it to accomplish the following tasks:
▒ Retrieve and set attributes for files
▒ Read and write files
▒ Read and set access control lists (ACLs)
copytree replicates a source tree starting under the source directory
within a file system to a target directory. It:
▒ Tolerates errors when setting target attributes with messages.
▒ Tolerates errors in the source tree, skipping those files.
▒ Copies sparse files as sparse files.
▒ Handles both symbolic links and external links
▒ Does not cross mount points
▒ Preserves file links
Thanks!

Subject: Copy a directory structure with copying files. [ EXTERNAL ]
I need to copy a directory structure of a USS (zFS if this matters) from one
LPAR to another. I looked at "tar" and "pax" and just can't see a way to do
this. I will be changing the high level directory though.
For example The from directory:
/usr/local/productV1/*
To:
/usr/lpp/productV1/
I was hoping to "unPax" to the new directory with the entire directory
structure.
Please help a Unix rookie..
