Very safe !

     Now the current process will continue to completion... that is it
     won't just die.

     reclamation will end at the end of the current input volume

     migration will end at the end of the "gathered list of files to
     migrate in conjunction with the specific migration process"
        (in other words... when a migration process initiates, it generates
     a list of all the files IT is going to move, then it starts moving
     them... when a migration process finishes ITS list, it checks the
     current UTILIZED% against the current LOW%. If the current utilized is
     below the low %, the migration process terminates... if curr util % is
     above the low% it gen's a new list and carries on)

     I perform my alterations of these values via administrative schedules
     and schedule the "resetting" of the values (to terminate activity)
     about 1/2 to 1 hour prior to when I really want the activity to halt
     on the adsm server... this way there is that buffer period for
     currently running tasks to complete.

     Dwight

Dear ADSM-ers,

I modify the migration or reclamation threshold to start a migration or
reclamation process. Is it save to reset the threshold to the original value

while the corresponding process is still running? Or should I wait till the
process has finished?
Thanks in advance!

Kind regards
