Rob, if your using MIMIX on a file such as this, how does this effect it on
the target side or doesn't it really matter. Wouldn't the SSD unit number
need to match up.

Lots of fun to get an approval for an outage to save/restore a library
where you already ran chgpf unit(*ssd) and then you run a STRASPBAL to
find it all moved back. :-(
Set the SST option!

If you have the tool RTVCMDSRC you will see that unit SSD get's translated
to unit 255. On 6.1 (and I think V5R4), where you didn't have the
parameter *SSD you just used 255.
So the question is:
Changing the unit to SSD, and having plenty of space doesn't force the
file to SSD immediately. (As verified by syspartitiondisk). How does one
move it all physically over there:
- Save/restore?
- Some option in STRSST to activate it?
- STRASPBAL *MP?

Sent by: midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx
Hi All,
Yesterday we attempted to migrate a large file (37 Gig) to the SSD
using
CHGPF. When I check the file (DSPFD) it confirms that UNIT(*SSD) is
now
changed.
This morning when I ran a query on syspartitiondisk it told my that 8%
(33
Gig on HDD and 4 Gig on SDD) had been migrated. I was expecting this
percentage to be higher if not at 100%.
Am I misunderstanding? If I specify the UNIT on a file to be SSD does
that not mean that the entire file will be migrated to the SSD?
Thanks,
Rob
