Jim, There are 12 4096 blocks per track or 601,020 blocks on a 3390-3 and 1803060 blocks on a 3390-0. The VTOC for cdl is the small for all volume sizes as its just a small "dummy" vtoc.
To copy just the allocated stuff on a dasd partition, Richard Higson's tar2tar (below) is a convenient tool. Assuming your two volumes are /mnt/vol1 and /mnt/vol2, then you just . tar2tar /mnt/vol1 /mnt/vol2 I've found that if I'm copying my respack, I mount it a t a different mount mount and copy from their to avoid some inconsistencies. tar2tar #!/bin/bash # //rhi Jan 2000 # Richard Higson <[EMAIL PROTECTED] # tar2tar from-dir to-dir # [ ! -d $1 ] && echo -n $1 is NOT a directory [ ! -d $2 ] && mkdir -p $2 && echo -n Directory $2 created ...
