Report Maintenance

If space becomes limited on the report minidisk, you can allocate a new, larger minidisk. Move the files from the old minidisk to the new one. You can enlarge the report minidisk manually or you can use CA VM:Secure or CA VM:Director to automate the process.

You can use either of two methods to enlarge the report minidisk manually. This first method is as follows:

  1. Allocate and format a new, larger minidisk for the CA VM:Backup service virtual machine at a new virtual address.
  2. Copy all of the files on the current report minidisk to the new minidisk. Do not selectively copy report files to a new minidisk. You can use the VMBCPY utility to copy the files.
  3. Discard the old report minidisk.
  4. Change the virtual address of the new report minidisk to that of the old report minidisk.

The second method for increasing the report minidisk size manually is as follows:

  1. Use the CMS TAPE DUMP command to dump all the files on the report minidisk to tape.
  2. Allocate and format a larger minidisk.
  3. Use the CMS TAPE LOAD command to load the files back to the new minidisk.

If you have CA VM:Secure or CA VM:Director, enter vmsecure manage vmbackup or vmdirect manage vmbackup, respectively, and select the Move a minidisk option on the Manager Selection Menu. This option lets you define a new minidisk of a specified size and move all files from the existing minidisk to the new one. For more information about the CA VM:Secure or CA VM:Director MANAGE command, see the CA VM:Secure/VM:Director Directory Manager Guide.
