Yup - the move data, submitted something like 7-8 times, has done nothing to help us. Too many errors.
LESSON LEARNED: the delete vol was issued before the restore vol. Happily enough, the data on that volume was actually three files that I really really don't want backed up, as they had old mgt class bindings and took up a ton of space, so I only have to get slightly upset with myself. :-) Thanks for the help! - Mike -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Hooft, Jeroen Sent: Monday, April 05, 2004 9:15 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Restoring data after deleting a volume "del vol disc=yes" will not only delete your primary volume but also your copy volume.

I've tried moving the data from it with no luck - too many errors. Since I should have a copy of this in the copy pool, I should be all set. So I'm going to delete the volume with discarddata=yes and make sure I've got the data from the copypool mirrored back onto the tapepool (onto a new tape somewhere). Question is, how do I do that? As in syntax? I can't just be "restore vol 00035-L1" or something that simple, right? Thanks in advance... Mike Bantz Systems Administrator Research Systems, Inc
