I have a number of Linux filesystems which are on 3390-1 volumes. I will need to move them onto 3390-3 disks next month due to DASD reconfiguration. Is there any reason why I cannot simply: 1) shutdown my single Linux system, 2) create new MDISKs that are 3390-1 sized on 3390-3 volumes (3x3390-1 per 1x3390-3), 3) use DDR to copy the old MDISKs to the new MDISKs, 4) change USER DIRECT so that the new MDISKs have the same addresses as the corresponding old MDISKs, 5) then start Linux back up. I know this is a "stupid question", but I'm also paranoid<grin>. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Applications & Solutions Team +1.817.255.3225 This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its' content is protected by law.
