Thanks. Setting read-only will force the writing to the new AFD device.
But what about the old device? It will not get "cleaned". And won't networker
think that the savesets are on two volumes?

Hi Sid
If you change the 'Enabled' status of the AFT devices in your old
appliance to 'Service' you can read from them but they will not be
written to, allowing you to edit your relevant Staging policy and select
'stage all save sets' to write them out to volumes in the policy's
destination pool

Hello,
I have two disk-based backup appliances. Both are set as advanced file
system devices. Both are being used to backup and both are in the same
pool. I want to retire one of them. I thought that nsrstage would be the
way to do it. Unfortunately, since they are AFT devies, the one I want
to
retire is never full, so anytime it is mounted it can get written to.
In fact, when I tell it to stage a save set, it ends up writing it to
itself. I can't see how to force it to write to the volume on the other
AFT device. Is there a way, or is there some other way to "migrate" the
data from the old disk to the new disk?
Help?
Thanks,
/ Sid /
