I have a 2nd level z/VM system that I've activated and configured DirMaint
and RACF.

The 2nd level system is a DDR copy of the first.

1st level production uses Backup & Restore Manager and Tape Manager.
It sits inactive (not autologged, along with other service machines) 2nd level.

Obviously, the 2nd level Backup/Restore/Tape is not in synch with first level.

The initial plan was to backup _select_ 1st level minidisks and restore them
when I cut the 2nd level system into production.

By _select_, I mean only those minidisks that I saw current updates to.

I'm now seeing that possibly might not be the best approach.  Would it be
better to backup and restore each and every minidisk for Backup/Restore/Tape?
e.g. every minidisk for BKRBKUP, BKRCATLG, VMTAPCAT, TMTMM, TMRMM, et al?


I did recently run across the procedure to enlarge/move the SFS tape catalog.

Thanks in advance.
