Hello Ismael, I am new to VM and even newer to Linux, but we currently have a couple of Linux Guests running under z/VM.
This is timely, as I have just created the Dump/Restore process using ADRDSSU on a Z/OS 1.4 System. I restored to different MVS disk volume addresses, and 'clipped' the original Linux disk volumes to something different. I then reipled the Linux Guest from the restored volumes. My Linux/Unix Guy then validated the Linux system. Everything appears 'ok'. The ADRDSSU parms I used are: DUMP ADMIN TRACKS(0,0,3338,14) INDD(DISKIN) OUTDD(TAPEOUT) CPVOL. I know there are other ways to dump/restore, but I am comfortable with ADRDSSU. I will investigate others, as time permits.. gabe -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ifurung, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 03, 2005 8:07 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Full volume backups in zOS Hello List, With shared DASD access with a zOS complex, is it possible to do full volume backups of zVM DASDs (linux guests volumes and zVM system volumes ) in the zOS system? Our zOS has all the latest equipments like silo automatic tape drives and backups done in the zOS would really be efficient. Thanks for any info.
