Re: Disk-Pool-Volume delete not possible

Hi Chris!
That's an old one! Issue an AUDIT VOLUME /TSM1/stgc/stg6.dsm FIX=YES.
Afterwards you will probably be able to delete the volume.
Kindest regards,

Subject: Disk-Pool-Volume delete not possible


Hi all,

on one of my TSM-Servers ( TSM-Vers : 4.1.4   / AIX 4.3.3 ) I have a problem
with one volume of my disk-pool :

I wanted to reorganize my pool-volumes, so I deleted all existing
disk-volumes of that storage-pool. All but one volumes could be deleted.
For this volume the Message came :ANR2406E DELETE VOLUME: Volume
/TSM1/stgc/stg6.dsm still contains data.
I made a q content but no data were shown. I tried do delete with
discarddata=yes the reply was the same  :ANR2406E DELETE VOLUME: Volume
/TSM1/stgc/stg6.dsm still contains data.
Then I changed the status to offline.
I changed my volume-groups on AIX (by this all files from that disk-stgpool
were deleted).
Now I did build all new volumes.
But how can I get rid of this one offline disk-volume ( I generated a new
one with same size but other name and renamed it to the old name : setting
it online caused an error message : ANR1315E Vary-on failed for disk volume
/TSM1/stgc/stg6.- dsm - invalid label block.

Thanks for any help

Chris

This is one I had a long time ago... hanging pointers, here is how to solve.

make sure all data is migrated from disk pools to tape pools
do q vol dev=disk to capture all info on what disks are where
write macros to delete all disk volumes (except the problem one) and define
them back
then when you have an available window
backup your db
run your macro do delete the disk vols
(this saves hours with the audit by deleting all other disk volumes)
shutdown tsm
perform a dsmserv auditdb diskstorage fix=yes  to audit only the disk
storage portion of the data base
(I believe that is the proper syntax, I can't find my note from the
last time I did that and the adsm.org web site seems to be down currently...
there will be notes from me from last year that detail this)
start tsm back up
delete the problem volume
run your macro to redefine all your disk volumes back to your storage pools
have a beer...



Dwight
