Hello there,
At present, I have one tape storage pool, DLT_BACKUP_POOL, backing up the
data for all ADSM clients. One of our departments would like us to create
a separate storage pool, DLT_XYZ_POOL, and move data belonging to all ADSM
clients in their department from DLT_BACKUP_POOL to this newly created tape
storage pool.
Once the new tape storage pool is created, I can issue MOVE DATA command to
move data from the volumes in DLT_BACKUP_POOL containing the data of all
ADSM clients in this department to the new storage pool.
What is troubling me is how would I go about finding out which volumes in
DLT_BACKUP_POOL contains data for the ADSM clients in this department? I
have over 500 tapes in the DLT_BACKUP_POOL and therefore running QUERY
CONTENT command for each one will take me forever to identify volumes
containing the information for the required clients. I do have collocation
turned on DLT_BACKUP_POOL and the department has 15 clients that are
sending their data to DLT_BACKUP_POOL.
Is there anyone who has gone through a similar task and can assist me in
meeting this request? I am running ADSM V3.1.1.5 on AIX 4.2 with STK
9710.
All suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Naveed.
