"Move" is not so much the operative word here - all you really have to do is
allocate the new DB and log data sets, then remove the old ones.  Of course the
new data sets are of equal (or larger) size.  Check the Admin Guide for the
correct procedure for your server.

As for mirroring, we run with a mirrored log, but not a mirrored DB - we have
Icebergs (or is it a RAMAC Virtual array).  My logic is that if I have a problem
that causes me to actually loose the DB, between the backups and the forward
recovery log, I haven't really lost anything.  But if I don't mirror the log,
and I have a problem, it can get dicey.  Therefore, I couldn't see paying for
the extra DASD to mirror my DB.  (but I'm sure others feel safer mirroring the
DB too).

          Question,


          I need to move my Storage, Recovery Log, & Database volumes
          from 3380 DASD to RAMAC/2(Raid 5) DASD. Below is my volume
          information for my system..


          1. What is involved in moving the datasets????

          2. We have 2 db vol's & 2 Sync'd db vol's. Do we need a
          (mirror) copy of these files once on RAMAC/2 DASD?

          I think for the Storage Volumes you just need to relocate
          new datasets and point ANRPROC to that area.. But I have no
          idea about the other two volume types..

          Any information would be helpful...

          Thanks
