I realize it isn't the best practice for backing up Linux, but I will be having to move volumes to a new DASD array. I'd like to use FDR full-volume backups of my Linux volumes just for insurance (we will use FDRPAS to move the information, most likely). Has anyone had any issues taking full-volume backups of Linux-formatted 3390-3 volumes? Also - is it normal for the volume serial to be 0X followed by the device number?
Make sure your guests are DOWN when you do a full-volume backup. fdasd or dasdfmt, one, will by default set the volser to 0Xdevno. So, yes.
