Joe,

I've done this but never with the amount of data you mention.  It's rather
simple to set up.    Set up a device w/DEVTYPE=FILE.  When you EXPORT to
this device it creates a file(in our case with a mainframe hi-lev-qualifier
of ADSM) and then I ftp it to my other server, /tmp directory,  and IMPORT
it there after setting up a simple device on the target.

There is another way to set up  a server-to-server environment and it will
xmit the file interactively.  This is not fast, though.  Described in the
Administrator's Guide.

Good luck

 Subject: exporting nodes









Has anyone ever exported a node to a file(disk) instead of tape? I'm moving
about 700 gig of data.
