Integrated File System Introduction

 

Example: Convert all file systems (small number of objects)

System A has five auxiliary storage pools (ASPs) configured: 1 (the system ASP), 3, 5, 11, and 25. None of the file systems have been converted from *TYPE1 directories to *TYPE2 directories on the system. You would like to convert all of the file systems. The file systems do not contain a large number of objects, so you plan to perform all the steps in a single day.

To convert directories in all file systems that have a small number of objects:

  1. Put the system in restricted state.
  2. Type RCLSTG SELECT(*ALL) on the command line.
  3. Save the system using the Save menu. Type GO SAVE on the command line, and select option 21.
  4. Type CVTDIR OPTION(*ESTIMATE) FILESYS(*ALL) FORMAT(*TYPE2) on the command line.
  5. Check for any error messages from the *ESTIMATE function.
  6. Verify all ASPs have enough available auxiliary storage space.
  7. Type CVTDIR OPTION(*CONVERT) FILESYS(*ALL) FORMAT(*TYPE2) on the command line.
    When converting all file systems (*ALL), message CPAA084 is displayed and asks you to verify that the listed file systems are to be converted.
  8. Check for any error messages from the *CONVERT function.
  9. Take the system out of restricted state.
