Tip: Data in storage pools that have an NDMP format (NETAPPDUMP, CELERRADUMP, or NDMPDUMP) cannot be migrated. However, in primary storage pools that have an NDMP format, you can make space available by using the MOVE DATA command. The target storage pool must have the same data format as the sourc

Further, it will use the copy pool volumes if they are available and have an access of readw/reado. If they are offsite, then it will use the primary volumes. Regards, Shawn Shawn Drew Internet kurt.bey...@vrt.be Sent by: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU

Hi, Kurt. The way you're doing it sounds fine to me. In fact, it sounds like the only real problem is offsite slots. Are those very expensive for you? But this implies that the copy storage pool from generation LTO_Y needs to be rebuild from scratch. Which is time consuming - Alex: Not reall

Hi Kurt, My advice should be going on using backup stg and reclaim stg instead of move data. Just use scratch volumes LTO generation y and do not checkin LTO generation x back from the vault. You'll still may have to use move data for offsite volumes with a low reclaim percentage. Time after t

You can only do move data's with in a copy pool, not from copypool a to copy pool b which would be nice, but I suppose for a media change you can mark the orig copy pools vols to RO then put your new media in and copy with in the same pool but to your new media which is set to read write. We've ha

SAY what? We do moves all day long. If the tape is in the ATL (unlikely) it moves data to another copypool tape directly. If the tape is offsite it recreates the valid data from the onsite/primary stgpool. On Aug 9, 2012 10:05 AM, "Huebner,Andy,FORT WORTH,IT" < andy.hueb...@alconlabs.com> wrote:

Hi Andy, A 'move data' on a copy stg pool volume works, the primary stg pool volume(s) is/are used for the operation. It just does not work for tapes that contain NDMP backups (primary or copy). regards, Kurt Van: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [ADSM-L@VM.MARIS

You cannot use move data on a copy tape. I have tried. I am very interested if you find a good solution. We are moving some of our copies to a different drive type. Andy Huebner -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of BEYERS Kurt Se
