I thought I'd summarize the problem I had and how it was resolved. Problem: Diskpool is at 100% Util with 0% migratable, MigDelay=0, MigCont=yes, CacheMigFiles=no. Updating stgpool hi/lo threshold to 0 or issuing 'migrate stgpool' command results in ANR4972i "migration is not needed for the stor

To any other Quantum DXi5500/3500 users: TSM seems unable to return expired dbbackups and tapes whose data has been 'move data'd off to scratch - we have to check them out and in again with a label overwrite=yes. This doesn't seem right, so I'm wondering if all other Quantum VTL users experience

I have a diskpool at 100% and attempts to migrate the data to its Next Pool are failing saying that there is nothing to migrate. Setting 'Cache migrated Files' to NO from YES should, in my book, enable the migration to start, but it's not - I'm getting ANR4972i "migration is not needed for the stor

Andy, I'm not getting much of a response from anything you mentioned, but I noticed the machine is running at 100% cpu constantly, so I'm guessing that might be causing this apparent 'hang'. Once I've eliminated that, I'll continue with your suggestions. Cheers, Matthew -Original Message---

Surely as long as you restart the scheduler, after the association has been made, to ask the server what the next schedule is, and check the dsmsched.log's last entries reflect what you expect, I can't see a problem. Server prompted schedules might behave differently but I rarely use them so I cou
