Angel,

If you have enough disk space somewhere, export  the node to a file device
type, then archive the resulting files.  I've done this successfully with
some small clients.

If not, export the node to tape, then use unix dd or similar to pipe the
raw tape to an adsmpipe archive.  That should work but, I've not tried it.

Subject:  Delete a client node.


Hello ADSM gurus.

I have a client node that has been decomissioned. It still has
38GB of data stored in the server and will expire in 3 years.

What I like to do is delete or remove the node and still be able
to retrieve the files backed up from it - maybe a year later?

Is there a safe way to do this?

TIA,
Angel
