Thought about what you're after and would suggest this instead: - Use PIPEDDR to write to a file and FTP this file to your Linux server (or use use TSM and make your remote Linux server a TSM server and backup - perhaps using cmsfs on a local Linux guest to read the minidisk(s) where you store your 3390 images) - Create a 'one pack' z/VM system which you can IPL and has PIPEDDR on it -- ftp 3390 images from Linux server and PIPEDDR restore the DASD. I guess I don't see the value in having Linux 'unburst' the PIPEDDR packed file via a datastream and write to 3390 DASD (is that what you wanted??). Better to store physical images and use them by other data transports (like ftp or nfs) which already exist and just use image files created by PIPEDDR/DDR2CMS/whatever. For a DR solution for z/VM - you'll need some method to restore tape/disk/PIPEDDR/whatever-method you choose -- so what did you imagine that being? My experience with z/VM DR is to bring up a minimal z/VM system and restore from there.. either that or DDR tapes. So wondering what's on the DR side to make all this work?
