I have some servers that we are end of lifeing. But I don't want to trash their data, and no further backups would be done. It can 'age off' gracefully, that is OK.
I need brainstorming here: 1. could we re-associate the file space with another client? (optimal, I think) 2. generate a new tape storage pool, and somehow (how?) move the data for the specified clients to the new (pseudo-archival) pool without having to do a new backup? 3. Other options? ... Why? I NEED to get the data out of my primary tape backup pool. I REALLY want to keep the primary tape pool fully in my library (IBM 3583 with 60 slots and 6 LTO1 drives). ... Win2K server with TSM 4.2.3.1 is my TSM platform Thanks ... Jack
