We . . . . - remove the association - rename the node from <node> to zzrt_<node> - in the Contacts we put the date it was retired, and the date it to be deleted
Once a month we go through the retired nodes and delete those that are eligible. Rick Shawn Drew <[EMAIL PROTECTED] CAS.BNPPARIBAS.CO To M> ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Sent by: "ADSM: cc Dist Stor Manager" Subject <[EMAIL PROTECTED] Decommission Procedure .EDU> 09/22/2008 12:17 PM Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] .EDU> When a Node is decommissioned we typically - lock the node - remove it from the schedules - A script periodically checks for old file systems (Based on retention) and identifies file systems ready to be removed - We remove the expired filesystems (and the last active versions) then remove the node Mr Sims recently suggested changing the MAXNUMMP to 0 to allow restores but not backups. What are some other decommission procedures out there? I'm trying to find the best way to do this so the decommissioned nodes will be obviously distinguishable from the active nodes.
