We used a standalone facility provided by our hardware vendor (EMC in this case). System(s) came down, EMC ran their utility which was very quick, and we IPLed the newly copied res pack(s) on their new addresses. We used no mainframe facilities other than our standard backups in case of complete disaster. ________________________________

What do other shops use when they have to migrate their VM system to a new DASD subsystem. Say you've installed a DS8300 and you need to migrate from a DS6800. What do you use? Thanks, Billy
