Using a stand-alone VM with 32 userids each doing DDRs, it took about 2 hours 
to migrate 110 3390-03s from EMC to SHARK. The EMC were on ESCON; the SHARK on 
FICON. There were two SHARK subsystems with 8 FICON channels, each. The EMC 
were scattered among 6 controllers with 4 having 2 paths and 2 having 4. Hope 
this helps.

Subject:        DASD migration

We are doing a DASD migration from HDS to Shark.  

I don't have the numbers on how many DASD I have to copy but is there a 
product out there that would let me do this migration quickly?  I was 
thinking of IPLing a standalone VM and do DDRs on all the DASD but that 
alone could also take a long time.  Has anyone ever done a DASD migration 
and what kind of tools did you use?

TIA,
Al
