Chapter 11. DASD volume migration 119
2. Issue the command PUNCH ZVMSERV XMIT A (NOH
3. Issue the command RDRLIST.
4. Beside the file in your RDRLIST, issue the command RECEIVE.
This should result in the reconstructed executable file on your CMS A disk. This completes
the server installation.
11.6 Operation of server under z/VM
Your z/VM must have TCP/IP active and connected to the appropriate network. The CMS
user running the migration utility must have access to the volumes to be migrated.
The CMS user starts the utility by issuing a ZVMSERV command; a single operand specifies
the TCP/IP port number and this defaults to port 3990. When started, the server should
indicate that it is waiting for a client connection. The server will time out after 10 minutes
without a client connection.
If a z/VM mini-disk is migrated, it will appear as a small 3390 volume on the receiving system.
That is, it will no longer be a mini-disk on a larger z/VM volume.
11.7 The client commands
There are three client commands:
򐂰 hckd2ckd - used with both z/OS and z/VM to migrate a CKD DASD volume.
򐂰 hfba2fba - used only with z/VM to migrate a FBA DASD volume.
򐂰 htape2tape - used only with z/VM to migrate a tape volume to a zPDT awstape volume.
This general syntax of the client commands (entered on the Linux client machine, using a
normal Linux command window) is:
hxxx2xxx host[:port] outfile [-n ][-v xxxxxx][-u aaaa]
[--norestart][--volser xxxxxx][--unit aaaa]
[-e eof-count] [-n]
[--eof eof-count]
host is the TCP/IP name of the system with the matching server program. This may be a
dotted-decimal address or a name that can be resolved by Linux TCP/IP.
:port is a TCP/IP port number to be used by both the client and server program. It
defaults to 3990.
outfile is a file name (on the current Linux) system where the migrated volume is placed
(in awsckd, awsfba, or awstape format).
-n or --norestart indicates that a previous incomplete volume transmission is not to be
restarted where it ended; the complete indicated volume is to be sent again. This applies
only to hckd2ckd.
-n (for htape2tape) means the awstape output is not to be compressed.
-v or --volser indicates the 3380/3390 volume (on the remote z/OS system) that is to be
copied (migrated).
