Re: restore to the cloud; system hung

And so the saga continues.....now a circus; not a rodeo.

Never seen anything like this before (in 45 years of IBM midrange).

We are vetting a cloud based P9 system (Microsoft SkyTap).

The cloud system is provisioned at V7R3; our machine is at V7R1.

There is no tape available so we did a save sys 21 to multi volume
virtual tape image catalog and FTPed the images to the cloud. Each
volume is 25GB. We were not confident we could FTP a single 625GB file.

We "converted" the multi-volume virtual tape image catalog to a single
volume using DUPTAP. Now we can restore anything from the single volume
virtual tape image catalog. Great solution (thanks IBM).

We restored user profiles and authorities omitting any profile starting
with Q (RSTUSRPRF).

We started a restore of a list of non-IBM libraries. The job failed and
the system is at signon display.

Now we cannot signon to the system.

We have ended/restarted the system.

We get a signon display and when we signon we get a break message
display messages screen saying the RSTLIB job failed (all non IBM lib
restore from a list of libs).

No matter what key we press we are immediately signed off the system.

Reporting in.

Regards,

Jerry
