Hi, Sue, I'll be better able to give you advice if I understand how your file systems are laid out currently. The output from "df -h" would be a start, as well as knowing if the disks are minidisks, or dedicated volumes. Just using a track-image copy, either via FDR or DDR, is usually a pain, because the partition table gets copied as-is, so the resulting system thinks the disk size is the same. One way around this is to get into fdasd, print out the partition information, and then zero it out, get out of fdasd, get back into fdasd (so that the system will try to re-read the disk information), and then create a new partition table, using the information from before. Kinda scary, at least to me.
