243.0. "CURRNT RA81 DISK REPLACEMENTS PROGRAMME" by SHAPES::SYSTEM () Wed May 31 1989 11:35

Dear All,

Just a reminder that CURRNT will be unavailable from Friday June 2nd 
at 17:30 until Monday 5th June 1989 for CURRNT's disk replacement 
programme (See note 190.14 in SYSTEM_MANAGEMENT notes file).  The 
original note specified downtime from Saturday 6th but as there is so 
much to be done we will need to start on Friday evening.

All RA81 data disks will be replaced by RA90's.  You will see a 
improvement in disk space.

The table below shows the current physical disks and the disks that 
the workload will be backed up to.

There will be a number of things that will have changed after the 
workload moves:

1.  The physical device names will have changed (See table below).

2.  The Disk Label's will have changed (See table below).

3.  Logicals names for the disks have changed (See table below).

4.  There will no longer be bound volume sets on the cluster.

There are a number of changes to be made after the move some of which 
you will have to carry out:

1.   Please ensure that you have not hard-coded physical device names 
     in your command procedures or programs.

2.   We will leave current logicals pointing to the relevant disks 
     until Friday 9th June.  Please ensure that you have modified your 
     procedures or programs to reflect the new logicals eg: 
     DISK$DATA1:, DISK$DATA2 etc. by that date.

Below is a table showing the current logicals and their future 
equivalents.  All logicals in the first column will be removed on 
Friday 9th June.

Could we please put a stop to these anonymous notes, which I seem
to recall are actually forbidden by corporate policy. If you use
a group account for entering a note, then sign your name to it.

This is a bit irrelevant when all, or at least the vast majority of

243.2New DisksSHAPES::SYSTEMMon Jun 05 1989 09:3267
Dear All,

All the workload on CURRNT is now on RA82 & RA90's - you should notice 
a slight increase in free disk space!

Please read 243.0 which gives more information on the changes we have made.  

There are a number of changes you will have to make yourselves:

1.   Personal Batch jobs will have to be re-submitted.

2.   We will leave old logicals pointing to the relevant disks until 
     Friday 9th June.  Please ensure that you have modified your 
     procedures or programs to reflect the new logicals eg: 
     DISK$DATA1:, DISK$DATA2: etc. by that date.

Below is a table showing the current old logicals and their new 
equivalents.  All logicals in the first column will be removed on 
Friday 9th June. (Modified table of node 243.0 with modifications & 
additions):
