Moving new tape to volume pool
Just started this week - so please cut me a little slack...
I need to add a new tape to a volume pool. The existing tapes in that pool are full. I put a new tape in the robot and we have a rule that assigns all new tapes with a particular bar code to the 'Tier_1_Archive'. This is usually okay as that is what we generally want when we add new tapes. But this is a special case, I want to add the tape to the 'Tier_1_Archive_Offsite' pool.
When I ran the inventory robot, it added this new tape as expected to 'Tier_1_Archive'. I have not written anything to this new tape yet - but still I don't see an option to change Volume Pools.
Can someone please tell me how to do this? or point me to a resource that will explain it? Thank You!
- I am not in front of a system to double-check, so, bear with me as well! Right-click on the new tape and select change. Volume Pool should be one of the options in the next step. Cmd is another option. Get list of pool numbers : # vmpool -listall # vmchange -m ( media-id ) -p (new-pool-number) Use vmchange -help to see all options. Commands are in /usr/openv/volmgr/bin HTH
