Andy, I ended up answering my own question...
Just a FYI...
Say you have two adsm servers that are different platforms, different
hardware, different 'bout everything except for adsm... You want to
export the nodes from one and import them on the other BUT they don't
have the same time of tape drives.
Here is what you do...
say two servers : EXPSRV & IMPSRV (export server & import server)
On EXPSRV set up a server definition that points to IMPSRV and a
device class that is a server and points to IMPSRV
On IMPSRV register the node EXPSRV as type server
ALSO set up a server definition that points to itself (IMPSRV) and a
device class that is a server (itself, IMPSRV)
Basically the define server and define devclass on IMPSRV are exactly
the same as they were on EXPSRV.
On EXPSRV, export the node to your server to server device class...
thus the data is written to a logical volume over on IMPSRV.
Now on IMPSRV, import the node, use the device class that is the
server to server that points back to itself (IMPSRV, and remember you
are pretending to be EXPSRV via the nodename in the server definition)
and use the logical vol ser that was created with the export!
With a little extra policy domain work you can set up an archive
mgmtclass pointing to an isolated disk pool so everything is really,
really fast.
This has been eating at me for weeks... trying to figure out how to
access that logical volume created by the export by the remote server
that contains the logical volume.
Guess I couldn't see the forest for all the trees !
later,
Dwight
Just trying to save others the headache I just got over
