<h1 class="topictitle1">Converting an Optical *BACKUP Volume</h1>
|
|
<div><p>Use the Convert Optical Backup (CVTOPTBKU) command to convert an
|
|
optical *BACKUP volume to an optical *PRIMARY volume.</p>
|
|
<p>You would typically use this function when the *PRIMARY optical volume
|
|
is either damaged or missing. The conversion eliminates the necessity of copying
|
|
all information from the optical *BACKUP volume to a new *PRIMARY volume.
|
|
After the system converts the volume to a *PRIMARY volume, it will allow all
|
|
write requests to the volume.</p>
|
|
<p>Once the system converts an optical *BACKUP volume to a *PRIMARY volume,
|
|
there is no way to convert it back to an optical *BACKUP volume. To convert
|
|
backup volumes, select option 6 (Convert optical backup volume) from the Optical
|
|
Backup/Recovery display or use the CVTOPTBKU CL command.</p>
|
|
<p>Before you attempt to convert, you should verify the name of the *PRIMARY
|
|
volume for which this volume is a backup. You can do this by displaying the
|
|
volume attributes of the optical *BACKUP volume. You can do this by using
|
|
the Display Optical Volume Attributes (DSPOPT) command or by selecting option
|
|
5 (Display) from the Work with Volumes display.</p>
|
|
<p>There may be previously deleted *PRIMARY volume directories
|
|
and files on the optical *BACKUP volume. Therefore, when converting the optical
|
|
*BACKUP volume to a *PRIMARY volume, it might be necessary to manually delete
|
|
directories and files from the volume. You perform this function in order
|
|
to accurately reflect what was on the *PRIMARY volume. If you never delete
|
|
directories and files from a *PRIMARY volume, this should not be a concern.</p>
