We would do that, but we're moving it to a different volume group. -----Original Message----- From: David Longo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, November 22, 2002 11:38 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Relocating TSM DB (storage)
I've followed the comments on this and have a different observation. If you just want to move to different ESS disks without any changes to TSM DB VOLs then here is an alternative, with an assumption that your TSM server is on AIX platform - you didn't say. If say you have 10 ESS disks assigned to the TSM DB, then assign 10 more wherever you want them. Then run cfgmgr to get new disks and assign them to the VG that TSM DB is on. At AIX level, create mirrors from old to new disks, by LV if you want and sync up the mirrors. Check that every thing is o.k., then break the mirror to the old disks and remove them from AIX and delete them at ESS. I haven't done this with TSM DB but have done it on AIX and ESS from a number of systems with running Oracle, Sybase and other stuff. Advantage to this is that it is totally transparent to application and users except for some performance slowness while syncing mirrors. David B.

If I define the new dbvolumes on the new disks, do I then just extend the db, and then do a del dbvol on the old ones? Does the delete make the data migrate over? Do I have to do a reduce db for any reason before I do the delete dbvol? Can I do the delete with the server up and running?
