Transfering Directory Trees?

» close window

The Question is:

 
We need to transfer a directory [EKV.BOARD] on one Teradyne Test Station
running VMS (Name:L393, Unit:DKA200) to a second Teradyne Test Station and
directory [EKV.XFER] (Name:DROOPY, Unit:DKA0) and RETAIN the directory
structure.  I seen to have stumped a
ll the "gurus" here, but it would save much time if I did not have to
transfer directories one at a time.  We need to do software mods and updates
but the software on L393 is currently being used for testing, so we wanted
to transfer the complete director
y and sub-directories to another machine for work, without interfering with
the tests.
 
Everything I have tried results in a single directory ([EKV.XFER]) with a
bunch of .DIR files in it (no sub-directory structure at all) and about 4200
files all scrambled from all the original sub-directories. HEEEEEEEEELP and
Thanks.
