You cannot convert a pool from copy to primary.please help on how to convert my copy pool to primary pool so that I can run my backups directly to tape.
You may already know this, but TSM won't be able to see it, unless Windows can. So you need to make those disk visible to Windows again before you can try to use them in TSM. If the data in the pool is corrupt, you will need to restore it from your copy pool (HELP RESTORE STGPOOL).The external storage pool has crashed and its not recognized by windows and TSM.
You can't change their assignment. Once a tape is assigned to a pool, it remains there until the data expired and space reclaimed OR deleted from the pool.how do I assign volumes which were assigned to copy storage pool to the new storage pool?
I would not assign them, let the storage pool pick them from scratch, less headache, less work now, less work later. But that's up to you.I then be able to assign the volumes to the new storage pool.
That statement is contradicting. A tape can be private or scratch, if you have 3 scratch tapes, you can't change them to scratch they are already scratch.my backups are now requesting for tapes, I do have 3 scratch media in the lib. but I cant change the status of these tapes to scratch. below is the status of one volume.
