According to the ADSM Admin Guide: Migration of files between primary storage pools does not affect copy storage pool files. Copy storage pool files do not move when primary storage pool files move.
If I have defined the following (AIX server, ADSM 3.1): Primary Pool: Arcpool1 Copy Pool: Backuppool1 NextStgpool: Arcpool2 Copy Pool: Backuppool2 Arcpool1 is backed up to Backuppool1. Arcpool2 is the next storage pool, and is backed up to Backuppool2. If I migrate all the data in Arcpool1 to Arcpool2, do the files in Backuppool1 expire? Or do the files get backed up into the second pool, duplicating the data again? >From the explanation in the Admin Guide, I would have guessed that the files in Backuppool1 would remain as is. But from what I am seeing now, it looks like I now have two copypools with the same data. If this is the case, what can I do to eliminate the first Copypool? Thanks, Mike
