- We are running out of space on our SYSRES, which is a 3380-E (we have
- no bigger volumes). So, I would like to know if anyone out there is
- running with the equivalent of a multi-volume SYSRES.
-
- We currently do system switches via a CLONE process, switching primarily
- between MVS00A and MVS00B. From what I have been able to gather, this is
- a pretty standard procedure for MVS shops. We would not want to loose
- this functionality with switching between say (MVS0A1,MVS0A2) and
- (MVS0B1,MVS0B2). In other words, we LIKE it.
-
- We are concerned with issues like dataset placement and good catalog
- maintenance.
-
- We are in the process of doing an IPO, so now seems like a very good
- time to make a move.
-
- We also have a re-cataloger that we can use if need be to keep multiple
- DLIBs right.
-
- I'm sure some of you nice folks have conquered this. Let's hear some
- brilliance!!! Horror stories are welcome as well.
-
- Thanks.
