Ours is slightly different, set migration thresholds to just less than the size of a tape, so migration will go on during backups.
Backups (we have enough disk to hold 3-4 days of incrementals, so we do cache files) creation of copypool volumes (from disk pools first, then tape pool) backup devconfig and volhist purge volhist of old stuff db backup make DR plan file eject copypool tape volumes and db backup, put dr plan on offsite media to go with the db backup. Expiration (which triggers reclamation) from time to time, I have also done a 'backup diskpool copypool wait=y', and 'backup tapepool copypool' before backups to make sure everything that can be is already on a copypool tape. the copypool tape is appended to at the end of the nightly process. my morning script follow: /* Daily Backup Activities */ /* executed by the dailybackup command schedule */ backup stg diskdata copypool wait=y backup stg diskdirs copypool wait=y backup stg tapedata copypool wait=y move drmedia * wherest=courier wait=y backup devconfig backup volhist delete volhist type=all todate=today-62 delete volhist type=db todate=today-2 /* backup db, scratch=yes, type=full, wait=yes */ backup db dev=ltoclass1 scratch=y type=full wait=y prepare wait=yes move drmedia * wherestate=mo rem=bulk wait=yes update stg diskdata hi=0 lo=0 update stg diskdirs hi=0 lo=0 expire inventory wait=yes update stg diskdata hi=20 lo=3 cache=y update stg diskdirs hi=90 lo=5 cache=y move drmedia * wherestate=courierr wait=yes move drmedia * wherestate=mo rem=bulk wait=yes move drmedia * wherestate=notmountable - wait=yes rem=bulk /* */ the move drmedia is a figment of having DRM.
