Don't know if this was mentioned. You can add additional stanzas in your dsm.sys file to connect to the server as the (retired) server . You will need to reset the password for the clientnode, and admin account for that node at the Server. at the command line ; dsmc -se=retirednodename give the password then you can "set access" to give the inusetoday node access to the retired node's data. The neat thing is you can break it down to the file owner and or the filesystem.
Do a dsmc help, and look for "SET ACCESS" in the menu, it varies thru version levels/releases. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? HotJobs - Search Thousands of New Jobs http://www.hotjobs.com
