Hi,
Aplogy for the broad distribution.
I searched the list for people that may have some IXFP experience.
I have none.
The REXX script below is a production script that runs happily.
This volumes will migrate to new disk types not supported by IXFP.
Thus I am looking for experience on how to translate the script below
and parms into some PPRC equivalent?
Basically, the 3 questions A, B and C at the end of this email need
answers which I can not give.
I am a z/OS background.
CATALOG SNAPREXX.PROC DATA=YES REPLACE=YES
TRACE OFF
RC = SENDCMD('IXFP SNAP,RVA010:BKP010,VOL1=BKP010,NOPROMPT')
CALL SLEEP 20
RC = SENDCMD('IXFP SNAP,RVA011:BKP011,VOL1=BKP011,NOPROMPT')
CALL SLEEP 20
RC = SENDCMD('IXFP SNAP,RVA012:BKP012,VOL1=BKP012,NOPROMPT')
CALL SLEEP 20

RC = SENDCMD('VOLUME A')
CALL SLEEP 10
RC = SENDCMD('VOLUME C')
CALL SLEEP 10
RC = SENDCMD('VOLUME 9')
CALL SLEEP 10
