Hi!
We have a customer with NT ADSM 3.1.2.13 which has
problems in using more than 40% of the 3995 optical
platters. I found the following hit from the ADSM
SITES.
"Without ADSM 3.1.2.40 level of code following
problems will be encountered.
IC23352 ADSM FOR NT CANNOT WRITE PAST THE 2GB MARK ON
AN OPTICAL."
Update : As mentioned before, ADSM is only using 40%
of all optical platters. So customer has already got 6
platters with only 40% space being used.
After upgrading ADSM to 3.1.2.50:-
a) Is there any configuration required in ADSM after
upgrade to reclaim the lost space from previously-
written platters ?
b) Is there any space reclamation procedure required
to get back unused space of all optical disks
without affecting the existing data. If so, what
needs to be done.
c) What precautionary measures are required to
succesfully upgrade ADSM fixpack 3.1.2.40? Is there
anything tricky?
d) Does the 3995 optical drive need to be rebooted
after upgrade?
e) How can we move data from used optical platter to
unused platters?
Pls specify the ADSM commands with all flags.
Request :
Pls provide us the step by step instructions
to complete the subject task succesfully.
Many thanks in advance for your support.
