"help mig stg" on TSM 6.2 on AIX says " DUration Specifies the maximum number of minutes the migration will run before being automatically cancelled. When the specified number of minutes elapses, the server will automatically cancel all migration processes for this storage pool. As soon as the processes recognize the automatic cancellation, they will end. As a result, the migration may run longer than the value you specified for this parameter. You can specify a number from 1 to 9999. This parameter is optional. If not specified, the server will stop only after the low migration more... (<ENTER> to continue, 'C' to cancel)
threshold is reached." Don't know if it is different for linux or 6.1 but try issuing the help command. -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Zoltan Forray/AC/VCU Sent: Wednesday, April 11, 2012 9:44 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] Migration duration default? Linux Server - 6.1.5.100 Is there a default value for manual Migration, that I am not aware of? I never use the DUR value. Yesterday around 14:40, I started a manual migration (mig stg backuppool lo=0). This morning at 7:26am I see the message: ANR4925W Migration process 1727 terminated for storage pool BACKUPPOOL - duration exceeded.
