I want to verify that I understand node and filespace renaming correctly:
I need to rename a node that is backing up under the wrong name;
Linux_SRV2 has been backing up as Linux_SRV1.
Ultimately I need both SRV1 and SRV2.
I don't want to lose the data already backed up when I start the actual
SRV1 backing up as SRV1.
I don't want to orphaned filespaces out there either, meaning that I want
to avoid three sets of filespaces; New SRV1, New SRV2, and Old SRV2/1
I recall having to rename a node about 6 years ago. It was a little
different, I just wanted to rename the node, I wasn't playing musical
chairs with name, and it was Windows and NAS, not Linux.
In that case I ended up with filespaces for the old and new client names.
I "think" in that case, I renamed the client from the dsm.opt file
(Windows) without renaming the node at the TSM server. Then backups
occurred and it was too late to rename the filespaces.
In reading this thread,
http://adsm.org/forum/showthread.php?22687-Renaming-a-node ,
I see that Chad Small states that the filespaces stay with the node when
it is renamed.
- So...all should be well if I rename the node at the server and at the
client in a timely fashion. I do not need to rename the filespaces at
all.
