Hi! I was wondering if anyone has tried to backup a PC or Mac to an IBM mainframe via TCP/IP? If so, how? I have tried backing up my PC to the IBM mainframe with NFS. The IBM mainframe involved has Interlink's SNS/TCPaccess TCP/IP software and Interlink's SNS/NFS. First, I created an NFS connection from my PC to the IBM mainframe and tried to XCOPY my PC's hard disk to the designated NFS drive (allocated as the mainframe) i.e. XCOPY c: g: /s /e. It would only copy my current directory and nothing more. Then I tried to FTP my PC's whole hard disk. Is there way to FTP the whole hard disk of a PC to the mainframe? I could only again find a way to FTP one directory at a time. I am using FTP's PC/TCP software. I would really appreciate anyone's ideas or if anyone is doing this, how.

Allows you to back up DOS, AIX, OS/2, SunOS and Mac clients to a central VM mainframe. The follow-on product, DFSMS, supports the same clients and both VM and MVS mainframes. Backup and restore are completely automatic; you can retrieve previous versions of files; both disk and offline media are supported in a storage hierarchy; etc. Designed to back up all your PCs and workstations without strain.
