Barry, I am copying each volume 1 for 1 i.e. I will be copying (4) 3390-3 to (4) 3390-9. Sorry, I should have posed my question more clearly.

Does your manual say something different? Are you copying each 3390-3 to a different 3390-9 or all four to a single 3390-9? If the latter, you might be better off with a dataset copy specifying all datasets and the four volumes rather than four separate volume copies. > -----Original Message----- > From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On > Behalf Of John Dawes > Sent: Thursday, November 03, 2011 8:35 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: QUESTION ABOUT COPY COMMAND - DFDSS > > G'Day, > > We are in the process of freeing a controller and I need to move 4 volumes > off it.

Is there a danger not using it? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
