This is becoming a constant, daily problem with both the storage pool and volumes constantly changing %utilized as well as migratable. Today, it showed 23% utilized and 100%migratable. So, I figured I would completely empty all volumes and then delete/recreate the storagepool. I had one volume that showed 77% used (note, there is no activity going on besides the moves for each individual volume - no sessions, no backups). Contents showed 1-200M file (in a 300GB volume), so the math is completely wrong. So, I tried to movedata and it said there wasn't anything to move. Then I ran an AUDIT FIX=YES. The audit report says " no problems"
5/8/2012 3:20:59 PM ANR4132I Audit volume process ended for volume /tsmpool/stg2.dsm; 1 files inspected, 0 damaged files deleted, 0 damaged files marked as damaged, 0 files previously marked as damaged reset to undamaged, 0 objects updated. But now the volume shows empty and the one file in there is gone....... What the heck is going on here? None of my other servers act like this..... Is a server migration/upgrade/conversion that screwy?

WHOA - Something just changed. I have been running various "move data" to empty the individual volumes. I just did a "q stgpool" and now it shows "Pct Migr - 100%". Really bizzare.......

Are you specifying a "low" setting? or letting it use the storage pool thresholds? (i.e. try it, specifying low=0 if not) Regards, Shawn ________________________________________________ Shawn Drew Internet zfor...@vcu.edu Sent by: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU 05/03/2012 02:25 PM Please respond to ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU To ADSM-L cc Subject Re: [ADSM-L] Pct Migr=0.0, Caching=No but there is data in the disk stgpool I thought about that too (should have mentioned it). We just recently rebooted the server (network issue - don't ask.......) and there are no active backups/sessions. No processes other than the movedata I just started. I did a Q CONTENT and all of the disk volumes show something in them from dozens of different nodes.

Here is the "Q STGPOOL" 1:30:21 PM FIREBALL : q stg backuppool f=d Storage Pool Name: BACKUPPOOL Storage Pool Type: Primary Device Class Name: DISK Estimated Capacity: 5,238 G Space Trigger Util: 77.4 Pct Util: 77.4 Pct Migr: 0.0 Pct Logical: 100.0 High Mig Pct: 90 Low Mig Pct: 50 Migration Delay: 0 Migration Continue: Yes Migration Processes: 2 Reclamation Processes: Next Storage Pool: TS1120 Reclaim Storage Pool: Maximum Size Threshold: No Limit Access: Read/Write Description: Overflow Location: Cache Migrated Files?: No Collocate?: Reclamation Threshold: Offsite Reclamation Limit: Maximum Scratch Volumes Allowed: Number of Scratch Volumes Used: Delay Period for Volume Reuse: Migration in Progress?: No Amount Migrated (MB): 0.00 Elapsed Migration Time (seconds): 0 Reclamation in Progress?: Last Update by (administrator): ZFORRAY Last Update Date/Time: 04/27/2012 06:25:02 Storage Pool Data Format: Native Copy Storage Pool(s): Active Data Pool(s): Continue Copy on Error?: Yes CRC Data: No Reclamation Type: Overwrite Data when Deleted: It says 77% utilized but nothing migratable. Trying to MIG STGPOOL says "nothing to migrate" yet doing a BACKUP STGPOOL is running and backing up. I did an audit on one of the disk volumes and it said "yup - there is something in there and it is OK/no problems". As you can see, caching is NOT turned on (never have used that feature - usually too much traffic flowing through to make it of any value).....and what is with the "Pct Logical" is 100%? This is a server I upgraded from 5.5. The disk pools were recreated from scratch so it's not like there was anything left behind......
