Hello ADSM world!

We have about 10 file servers (OS/2 LAN Server) on our site,
which contain data from different departments of our company.
All these servers are backed with ADSM to an ADSM AIX server. We
generally keep 15 versions (1 active, 14 inactive) of each file
on these servers.

As user needs for disk space are growing constantly, it happens
that we have to move data from one server to another in order to
equilibrate disk space between the servers.

As the data is moved to another file server, ADSM considers the
data as being deleted on the first server and removes (in our
particular configuration) 13 inactive files in order to keep
only the two last versions of each file.
These 13 inactive versions are lost.

I am looking for a way to tell the ADSM server that some files
of some client have moved to another client (or another disk partition
on that client) in order to avoid loosing inactive versions
on the ADSM server.

Thanks for suggestions or solutions!
