Our DR plan is similar to the one described in earlier postings. We have been able to shorten the process significantly by running dsmfmt processes in parallel. At our last DR test we started all 35 dsmfmt commands at the same time, each responsible for a file a little over 2 GB in size. The processes finished in rapid succession about 15 minutes later. This was on a mainframe Linux system.
