I am going to install a software package on a test lpar. I plan on doing a full system backup to VTL.
This test lpar is a guest IBM i lpar hosted by another IBM i lpar.
The guest is not that big of an lpar. Just half a TB.
The host has 6.8 TB of free space laying around.
WRKNWSSTG shows seven 80GB chunks for the guest.
As a belts and suspenders approach would it be better to:
- save those subdirectories in QFPNWSSTG related to this guest to our VTL
- Copy those to disk? If so, how to I copy them and retain the ability to copy them back if needed? Use WRKNWSSTG and option 3 or just copy them using IFS commands?
