Hello Zoltan, I use it every day, mostly because of changes to our VMware environment (VMs seem to breed like rabbits and die like fruit flies.) It never seems to take much time in those cases, but the object count and data stored in those cases isn't typically very large.
I've never tried to decomm a node that is TB in size or one that contains millions of objects. __________________________ Matthew McGeary Senior Technical Specialist – Infrastructure Management Services PotashCorp T: (306) 933-8921 www.potashcorp.com -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Zoltan Forray Sent: Thursday, January 12, 2017 1:15 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ADSM-L] DECOMMISSION NODE Anyone out there using the DECOMMISSION NODE command? I tried it on an old, inactive node and after running for 4-days, I had to cancel it due to scheduled TSM server maintenance. My issue is, since it was only 35% finished (based on the number of objects processed), will it start from the beginning or remember where it left off? -- *Zoltan Forray* Spectrum Protect (p.k.a.
