Copy a directory structure with copying files.

I need to copy a directory structure of a USS (zFS if this matters) from one LPAR to another. I looked at "tar" and "pax" and just can't see a way to do this. I will be changing the high level directory though. For example The from directory: /usr/local/productV1/* To: /usr/lpp/productV1/ I

Re: Copy a directory structure with copying files.

Dave, Be careful. /usr/lpp is part of the IBM supplied root file system. You should not be making any changes in there outside of smpe. If you do add directories there, it will be on you to carry that forward with future z/OS maintenance.
