Since upgrading our TSM services to 5.1.6.2 (AIX 4.3.3) I seem to just be
investigating the new features and whether or not they are of any benefit.
The latest one for me which looks like it could help me out enormously is
the move nodedata comand...
The reason that it is useful to me is that our TSM services have been
running for several years now, but were never setup to handle the number of
clients they do now, so moving nodes into new/alternate Storage pools and
domains is something I have toyed with but never done up until now as it has
never been an easy task.
I have been trialling my thoughts and testing the move nodedata command out
in a test environment by moving the data from tape storage pool A to B and
updating the domain of the client from A to B. (I've noticed you cannot move
data in copypools, so I assume I have to leave the data in copypool A to
expire naturally). I forgot to mention that before doing this, I made sure
that domain B had the relevant management classes defined.
What kind of worries me is that it all seemed a bit on the easy side and
works... can it really have become this easy or have I missed something
blatently obvious that could catch me out in the not too distant future?
Cheers
