Subject: Need help setting up FILE class pool volumes
Server = 5.1.6.2 on AIX 5L
Yes, I have tried to read through the admin/getting started/reference
books
We have a disk stgpool named DIRPOOL where we direct all our directory
info to (using the dirmc option). The stgpool backup to drm of this
pool has gotten progressively worse (2 hours for 9253 files, 12,296,192
bytes), so we decided to try the approach of creating FILE type disk
volumes to migrate to so that the regular disk pool would stay fairly
small/fresh. It didn't seem too hard after reading the admin guide, so
I went and carved out 5) 500MB lvols to try it out. After some false
starts, I realized that the device class I had to create was only going
to allow me to point to one directory structure (i.e. one lvol as well).
However, I decided to try it on one of the lvols and if that worked, to
move stuff around later. When I lowered the migr level of the dirpool,
it looked like it was going to work, but after creating and filling one
50MB TSM vol in the DIRFILE pool, the migration aborted saying it was
out of space. Attached are the log entries as well as all the detail I
could think of to show how things are set up. If anyone could point out
where I'm going wrong, I would be most appreciative.
