> Why? What are you afraid of? That's deep...
I can never be too careful.. but you all have a lot more experience than me and can surely make the right call on which option to choose. The other day, when someone was asking about issuing thousands of RACF commands, I remembered my scar from a similar event (firefighting on behalf of someone). - Vignesh Mainframe Infrastructure -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Peter Hunkeler Sent: 20 September 2017 23:37 To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: AW: Re: Extended format system ZFS files >Although this is possible and you'd have a backup, I'd rather move chunks of >folders at a time using USS-specific tools. Why? What are you afraid of? I can't remember all the details, but about 3 years ago we had to copy a really large file system into a new cluster (I think because the old one ran out of extents). Copying with REPRO turned out to be the fastest option by far. The target cluster must be newly allocated and *unformatted*, and both file systems mzst be unmounted during the repro. -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN MARKSANDSPENCER.COM ________________________________ Unless otherwise stated above: Marks and Spencer plc Registered Office: Waterside House 35 North Wharf Road London W2 1NW Registered No. 214436 in England and Wales.
