>Hello everyone, I have a couple questions regarding storage pools.
>
>First let me tell you my dilemma. When I first setup ADSM running on
Windows
>NT, I had to use the Windows NT Driver for the tape drive so ADSM defined
>the drive as a GENERICTAPE type device. I then created two tape storage
>pools, once copy pool and one for migration from the disk storage pool. Now
>I have a new tape library with three tape drives of the same type as the
one
>I have now, (Sony AIT) but in order to use the library I had to use the
ADSM
>SCSI Driver. So the device type for these drives are 8mm and they are in a
>different adsm library (AITLIB).
>Now we want to send the single external tape drive to our disaster recovery
>site. My problem is how do I use the existing tapes in the library. Can I
>create new storage pools for the 3 drives and move the volumes from the old
>pools to the new ones? Should I create new storage pools and do a backup of
>the storage pools from the old ones to the new ones and then delete the old
>volumes?
>
>Any help would be appreciated,
