Tim et al
Thanks for replying.
I guess it will be the nsrstage method of 'moving' the volume then.
What is the best method (networker software command) of checking which
savesets are on the volume to be moved? (To be used with the nsrstage
command).
Is there likely to be any other data that I should know about on the
volume to be moved that will need cloning too? If so how do I 'see' it
using networker commands?
Thanks again for your help.
