We don't  have any mod 9 available in the z/VM pool, all were re-allocated
to the z/OS Adabas databases. We are trying to get more dasd, but approval
is very slow and painful  and management does  not want to spend any money
at all.

I just want to thank everyone for their response, You people provided me
with good ideas for now and the future.

My main concern is to have a backup copy of the volume groups for disaster
recovery purposes as soon as possible. Last weekend we almost had to do a
full z/VM and Linux recovery.

Thanks,

Would it not be much less trouble to change the backup volumes to 3390-9?
