If I create a new one on a new drive x:\tsmarchlogfailover and update dsmserv.opt will it eventually free up the files on c: never realized it was on C: to begin with, have had this environment for over 2 years Or Is it better to Halt system Move c:\tsmarchlogfailover to x:\tsmarchlogfailover with windows copying Update dsmserv.opt to ARCHFAILOVERLOGDirectory x:\tsmarchlogfailover Restart TSM Tim -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Vandeventer, Harold [OITS] Sent: Tuesday, 26 August, 2014 1:09 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] tsm archive log full, causes repeated backups Can you create the ARCHFAILOVERLOGDirectory?

Create an new archive log directory. Update the dsmserv.opt option file for the new archive log directory. Halt and restart the server. Move the archive logs from the old directory to the new directory. Preserve any subdirectory structure. Use and verify a recursive copy directory command. By doing this , after the server restarts and before moving the archive logs wont the backup still continue.
