Wouldn't you just add a log vol copy (format & define etc), syn the
volumes and then remove the original ?? No outage required.

No need to halt the server on W2K

1) define logvol X:\newlogvol.ext formatsize=XXXX (were XXX is MB and
equal/Larger to the log you want to delete)
2) delete logvol X:\oldlogvol.ext

Subject: How to move your TSM server recovery logs?


Environ:

W2K server 5.1.6.3

I need to move my recovery logs to another drive to increase their size.

I have looked in the W2K Admin Guide for a procedure, but failed to find
one.

Does anyone have a procedure to move your recovery logs?

Here is what I was thinking of doing:


1) Halt TSM server.

2) Use the DSMSERV FORMAT utility to define new recovery logs on the new
drive.

3) Restart the TSM server.

Is it this simple or am I missing something?

TIA.
