Ok, let me detail the env.

This client has 4 libraries (LTOLIB1 / LTOLIB2 / LTOLIB3 / LTOLIB4) each
library has 44 slots and 2 drivers, the library LTOLIB1 and LTOLIB2 are
destiny of filesystem data, and this 2 libraries are overloaded with
aprx 100 tapes off librarie.

The client is putting additional 3 libraries in the env, in the same
config (44 sltos and 2 drivers). 

The question is how to make the older tapes into the new library? I will
have to migrate the volumes?



Atenciosamente,

I'm trying to understand your situation....
The new library is the same as the old but larger...more slots?
-storage pools defs reference device classes
-device class defs reference libraries

So, I'm thinking, you might be able to
- check the remaining volumes out of the current library
- update the device class def to point to the new library
- check the current ones and the new ones into the newer, larger
library.

Subject: [ADSM-L] Volumes off library


Hi guys,

I have a client that has too many volumes off library, about (100
volumes),
and each time it request a restore, it take about 20 volumes, and mostly
off
times this volumes is offsite,

Well i know it's a sizing problem, but this is not the question here,

The client bought 3 knew library (aprx. 120 slots) now he want to put
this
volumes (100 volumes) inside the library, but there isn't any way to
change
the pool of a volume (like update volume xxxx stg=yyyy), so i will need
to
migrate all data to the new pool? i don't want to deactive the actual
library
