Are the zVM volumes online to z/OS? Do they have a OS Style vtoc? CPVOLUME specifies that the input and output volumes are VM-format volumes and that the OS-compatible VTOCs must begin on track zero, record five. You must specify the track range to be copied with the TRACKS keyword, as the OS-compatible VTOCs do not describe the extents of any data on the volume. You must also specify the ADMINISTRATOR keyword with CPVOLUME because DFSMSdss cannot check access authorization for VM data.
