That is going to be next to impossible without knowing the CHPID numbers and device numbers that they need. It's time to reconnect the Hitachi box.
Impossible? Wasn't that removed with z/VM 5.2 ? Ah, well... VM/ESA The way I would consider to move forward: 1. Configure the disk space for 3390-3 models 2. Define an IOCP to map disk and tape at whatever addreass you recall 3. Install a small VM system to do your restores 4. If you don't know what volumes are on what tapes you need to restore them all (the starter system takes 2 packs but you don't need to have the page packs already) 5. Look through the volumes and find your IPL pack and IPL the thing 2nd level 6. Find the source directory somewhere (if you really can not find it, kdirect comes to mind) 7. Maybe your original IOCP source is somewhere on the MAINT disks, or some CE-type userid. Otherwise go through directory and some config files to learn where devices were. Rob --
