Thanks, Kris. Our users cannot open files R/W in more than 1 file pool at a time. We only have 2 pools, and R/W access to one of them is limited to a few service machines that have no authority in the other. Similarly, the general users enrolled in the other pool cannot write in the one being serviced by the few service machines. All I have to be concerned about is the FTP server. I can halt it for the few minutes required to move the disks.

There would be a problem for CMS end-users: they will not be able to open files in RW located in more than 1 SFS server at the same time. But, as soon as CRR is back, all works fine again. 2007/11/27, Schuh, Richard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Can the CRR machine be taken down for s brief interval without taking down other SFS servers, or is it necessary to stop all SFS activity to do it? The situation is that the disks of the CRR machine are on physical disks that are to be decommissioned and I need to move them to a more permanent location. Naturally, if this were possible, it would take place during a period of extremely low activity. Regards, Richard Schuh -- Kris Buelens, IBM Belgium, VM customer support
