Also, this will be no good >if VMBACKUP takes an hour to back up VMARCHIVE! :-) > Using VMBACKUP and Quiescing the disks sounds like a good idea. With a lot of archiving going on, if they don't Quiesce the disk it is likely to change in the middle of being copied, isn't it? But as I read this I was wondering whether VMBACKUP would take that long if you used DASDTapes (where it copies to a disk in some mysterious format, instead of using a tape). We have never used them here, so I don't know, and I don't know about their drawbacks if any - just wondering. Margaret King Michigan State University
