I'd pick something small and back that up first.  Optical drive 
performance is pathetic.  You may wish to look at V5R4's virtual tape.  To 
get a good estimate of the size of your IFS I suggest running RTVDSKINF 
(must be run in batch) and then PRTDSKINF *SYS for the summary.  A vast 
majority of our space used is in the IFS.  Only about 10% is used by the 
operating system and all of our ERP, payroll, etc combined.
