705.0. "HSM : different # of files migrated then pre-migration indicated" by BRSADV::BUGGENHOUT () Thu May 22 1997 09:30

hi

I have the opportunity to play around with NSR/HSM , by the way : nice product
I installed it, had a quick look in the man pages and everything worked
fine within half an hour !

Doing some tests I noticed the following which I cannot find any direct
explanation for :

- Pre migration started and reported about 14 914 files (total of 435 MB), the
   only paremeter I used was owner  (NO min size ...)
- Migration reports tells me only 9450 file(269 MB) are really replaced
  with a stub

I used very large margins for high and low watermark to be sure all pre
migrated files had a change to be migrated.
Looking in my file system I saw that all files called 0000000.sys were
not migrated whatever the file size was : 56 or 120 bytes. 
I thought perhaps there is no migration when file is smaller then the
stub which in this case always is 86 bytes ?

Any clue ?

705.1there is a lower limit...DECWET::SDYLook out!!..Support Rookie sez...Thu May 22 1997 12:136
NetWorker HSM has a lower file size limit of 1K, meaning files smaller than
this will not be migrated (although they might be spotted by the pre-migration
scanner and saved in the save set). This needs to be better documented, both
by us (it'll probably be added to the FAQ soon) and Legato (cross your fingers)
