Rex, Thanks for the help. I checked. The system default for DFDSS is set at 256K. The reason why I cannot restore the datasets is because the volumes are SMS managed LPAR(A) and the backup is done from another LPAR(B). The SMS configurations are not the same on LPAR A & B. However the disks are visible from both the LPARs. Why is the backup not taken on LPAR(A) pray tell? This is because of CPU constraints. A work around I devised is that I restored the dataset to a new name on LPAR(B) then I did a copy of the dataset to the original name from LPAR(A).
Oh! What a tangled web we weave ...... I hope that I was able to explain myself clearly. G'day. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
