Decommissioning Digital storage in CommVault 8
Hi ,
I'm struggling to decommission one of the digital storage in commvault ,as there are some backup file left in this storage . I was thinking 2 option to decommission it
1. Flush all the content from digital storage that need to be decommissioned to tapes , I'm not sure how to do this . Please let me know if you can assist me with this
2. Copy all backup files from decommissioned digital storage to NAS storage . This option is straightforward but i worry Commvault unable to refer to this file , which have been moved manually . Please let me know if there is a way to tell commvault that these files are moved to another location , and i would able to restore without any issue.
Note :
This particular digital storage is actually LUN presented from Netgear NAS and mounted as drive from Commvault server , refer to attachment for your reference. I would like remove this LUN and re-purpose it for other project work.
