For aix, I don't believe that TSM works that way...removing a filesystem (all activity stops...) is different in TSM's eyes than removing a file (file(s) change to inactive...delete policies take effect, etc)(from what I've seen). * reminder...if you archive from that filesystem, then you may not be able to remove it (retention of archive files...), but keep in mind the rename option... * Thanks Tim

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, May 03, 2002 8:21 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: filesystems and directories under the same name George, Did a backup run between the time that the filesystem was removed and the new file system created? I believe that when /inbound/site was removed the data was lost. If a backup was run TSM would mark the data as inactive. Now when your are try to restore to the new filesystem you should be looking at inactive file not only inactive. Just a thought.

AIX TSM server 4.2 I had a filesystem called say /inbound/site now they removed the filesystem but still needed the path....so they have a filesystem called /inbound and created a sub directory called site When you try to do a restore via the command line it only finds the filesystem data not the directory data If I try to restore via X window or web I have to go through the filesystem /inbound and to the subdirectory site How can I get the data off the filesystem /inbound/site and in the directory /inbound/site I can'd restore the data and then back it up again...too much data and not enough space on the server Sorry to hit everyone in the morning with this...but I was trying to figure this out all last night w/ no success Thanks George Hagopian AIX/TSM Administator ICT Group
