In the proposed COPY, would it be correct to assume that
1- backup/image DKA100: LDA1: (pointing to disk.iso
2- mount/foreign  DKA200:
4- copy disk.iso DKA200:

?

If LDA1: has been created to have say 600 megs, and DKA200: has 1 gig.
Will the extra 400 megs be available after the COPY operation ?  When
mounted normally, will VMS update disk structures to reflect the fact
that the disk has 400 extra megs available ? (thinking about bitmap.sys
and other ODS files)
