If you check the ADSM-L archives, I just asked this question, not 2-weeks
ago.

The answer I got back was, basically, DONT DO IT !   One response I got
was, when this was done, TSM DB was trashed and he had to do a complete
restore.

There is a section in the book on how to do this. The basic jist is to
create/format/add the new DB and then do a DELETE of the DB volumes you
want to get rid of (I suggest 1-at-a-time).   TSM will then move the
contents of the DB volumes you are deleting, to other DB volumes in the
"pool".

Make sure you have at least 1 good FULL backup of the DB.

        Subject:        OS390 Database


I have a question for OS390 users. I would like to know if I can use HSM
to move TIVOLI database from one disk pack to another disk pack?  Will
this create a problem for TIVOLI. I am currently running TIVOLI 3.7.4 with
OS390 R2.10.
