Re: Offsite Storage of Copy Stgpool Tapes

Hi Chet,

I don't have drm either; here is what I do.

Run an update volume command; it lists every volume it updates.
Capture the output to create eject commands.  You can add 'preview=yes'
to the command to test it.

The update volume command is --

upd v * acc=offsite wherestg= whereacc=readw wherest=ful,fil

Hope this helps,

Offsite Storage of Copy Stgpool Tapes

2002-06-27 Thread Chet Osborn

Hi,

We're in the process of creating off-site copies of our primary stgpools.
I've copied primary stgpools to copy stgpools, and have events scheduled to
keep the copy stgpools up to date.

Now, I need to figure out the mechanics of moving the copy tapes offsite,
and keeping track of them.

We don't have Disaster Recovery Manager licensed, so that limits our
options somewhat.

Any guidance would be appreciated.
