When I try to use the CP FLASHCOPY command I get an error message that
indicates the control unit does not support this function.  The DS6800 has
the correct license because I can invoke the DSCLI commands for flashcopy on
the SMC...

Any ideas what the problem could be?

(I have tried using the website http://www.ibm.com/support/us/ for research,
but the elements that support VM do not appear to be up.  Also I have tried
to access the website for the VM listserv to see if similar problems have
already been reported, but no luck in accessing that website.  Although I
can see activity on the listserv from the emails discussing problems...)
