Hi Mark Correct me if I am wrong you said that the information is also stored in my standard disk stotage pool (after migration on tape too). So after a move nodedata on my new storage pool on disk I will not need anymore the dirmc parameter and the old dirmc storage disk , all the information will be on the new storage disk including the directory structure .....

Information that goes into your dirmc pool is also stored in your standard disk storage pool, which you are now migrating to tape. The reason you leave the dirmc disk pool in place is so that when you have to perform large-scale restores, the directory structure information is restored from disk; this is much faster than restoring from tape. -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Berbee Information Networks Office 262.521.5627
