Title: Migrate Common Server optical data back to disk
Post by: rav on September 18, 2013, 06:17:26 AM
Hi,

Has any one tried to copy the data from optical back to IFS in a Common server environment? Have you seen any documentation on this?

Cheers,

Rav.

Further to my question above, is there a way that I can find which of my archived documents are in the optical drives in a common server environments? In a spool file archive enviornment you can easily do this by querying the QARLRSRT file in QUSRRDARS library but how do you do this in a common server enviornment?

If your goal is to permanently move the objects from optical back to disk, then one approach is to:
- Add a level to your storage group after optical
- Run the onDemand command CHGPLDOND to change the next level date
- Run ASM to have it move the objects to the new next level based on your newly set dates.

I hope this helps.
