What sort of disk sub-system do you have? Do you run other backups on
the VSE system (librarian, VSAM, ICCF, etc)?

Today we use DDR backup to backup our production vse
disk to tape.
this takes about an hour,
we are looking for ways to decrease our backup window.
process today as follows,
force each vse (2) offline and use DDR backup to copy
packs to tape.
bring all vse's back online.
Could I copy the volumes from my Production VSE to
another set of DISK not defined to my Producton VSE
and the bring my Production vse back online?
I would then use ddr to make tape backups of the
copied disk.
( this is just like a manual FlashCopy)
Question: Can this be done,
Question: today It takes about an hour, could I
reduce this window manually to about 10 mins (just the
copy to get the production vse back online).
