Hi everyone, We will be shortly be helping with a DataDomain (DD) installation, and we are looking for how best to move the primary pool from the old tape pool to the DD. The DD will be used as a NAS device via a file type pool.
Currently, there is the normal DISK->TAPE hierarchy of primary pools with the need to get to DISK->DD. 1) use movedata chg DISK nextpool to DD chg DD nextpool to TAPE movedata from TAPE to DD current: DISK->TAPE transition: DISK->DD->TAPE movedata TAPE back to DD to clear out old pool final: DISK->DD We control the movedata process with scripts. 2) use migration chg DISK nextpool to DD chg TAPE nextpool to DD migration from TAPE to DD current: DISK->TAPE transition: DISK->DD<-TAPE migrate TAPE to DD to clear out old pool final: DISK->DD Migration runs process automatically. 3) Other ??????? Are they any other ways do this? ----------------------------------------- The information contained in this message is intended only for the personal and confidential use of the recipient(s) named above.
