Easy way to Move Tape Volume between pools ?
Hi, ADSM server 2.1.5.19 (Yep! some of us are a long way behind.) Does anyone know of a way to move tape volumes between storage pools, without having to do a move data operation on each tape ?

Reclamation is the only other thing that can cause a tape to return to the scratch pool so the tape will move to another storage pool that I know of. -Original Message- From: Henk ten Have [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 18, 2002 7:02 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Easy way to Move Tape Volume between pools ?

Hi I'm guessing you want to move volumes along with the data stored on them? In this case, it's not possible. If you're meaning that you wish to move volumes between libraries with the same format, that shouldn't be a problem.

Re: Easy way to Move Tape Volume between pools ?
If you're trying to move the data, not the tapes themselves, you can set the NEXTPOOL parameter on your storage pool to the desired target pool, then lower your migration threshold to have ADSM move the data for you. Same effect as running MOVE DATA on each volume, but without having to monitor and run so many commands. Nick Cassimatis [EMAIL PROTECTED] Today is the tomorrow of yesterday.
