Hi Raminder:
It all depends on your specific site. I'll assume your like most shops and you have a
copypool that is updated each day with new incremental data, and it is those volumes
you want to checkout. So you want to:
1). Find out the new copypool volume in the library that are not offsite
2). Check them out
3). Update thier staus to offsite
We use a script for this that is executed each day just after the TSM DB and critical
file backups. I think the sample script can be found in the ADSM-L archives. But you
can do it via the command line in this sequence:
1).select volume_name from volumes where stgpool_name='YOURCOPYPOOL' AND NOT
access='OFFSITE'
2). CHECKOUT LIBV ..................<your site parms>
3). UPD VOL xxxxxx acc=offsite

How do I figure which ones to send, or which ones were used in the last
backup.
Thanks
Raminder
