Media Movement
Tips, techniques, and recommendations for moving media in your network
When systems are in a BRMS network, running movement needs to be carefully managed. The following are recommendations to help prevent issues with volume movement:
When running movement as part of BRMS maintenance (
STRMNTBRM), it is recommended that only one system runs movement.If systems in the BRMS network are attached to different tape media libraries, run movement using
MOVMEDBRM SYSNAME(*LCL)on each system.If multiple systems are attached to different tape media libraries at , for example, 2 different locations, use
MOVMEDBRM LOC(xxxxxxx)on one system at each location.When Global move is run in a BRMS network (
STRMNTBRM MOVMED(*YES)orMOVMEDBRM SYSNAME(*ALL)) , there should be no other BRMS backups, restores or duplications running that the movement may affect.
