Hi,
TSM v7.1.3
Linux RHEL 7.0
We´re planning to move our SP database and active logs into a new storage (from IBM-based to NetApp (LUN) based) and I was reading an old Administrator Guide (TSM for Linux 6.2) to do this. Resuming, these are steps:
1. Backup database;
2. Halt server;
3. Create new dirs. for the database, active logs and archive logs. Check perms;
4. Create a file that lists the locations of the database directories;
5. Remove the database instance;
6. Issue DSMSERVER RESTORE DB utility to move the database and create the new active log;
7. Restart the server;
8. Move the archive logs from the old directory to the new directory.
I was wondering if I can use the same names and keep the same structure instead of removing the database instance and restoring it?
1. Backup database;
2. Halt server;
3. Umount the database and {act,mir,arc}log disks;
4. Mount them elsewhere;
5. Format the new disks keeping the same fs_type;
6. Mount the new disks at the above dirs;
7. Copy the contents from old dirs into new dirs.
