2377.0. "Move parts of a FC off-node?" by CSOA1::LENNIG (Dave (N8JCX), MIG, Cincinnati) Mon Mar 08 1993 12:21

    I have an ALL-IN-1 IOS account on an MTS machine. This account has both
    document and disk quotas. Due to down-sizing, archiving is no longer
    being offerred by the DIS staff.
    
    What I am looking for is some way to move portions of my file cabinet
    off this system onto my non-MTS private machine. The only two options
    I can think of would be to somehow fake the archiving facility into
    creating savesets that I could store someplace on my own (not ideal,
    but acceptable) or to somehow move entire drawer(s) to another system.
    (note that a fair number of the documents are mail messages which, as
    I understand it, aren't stored in my personal directory).
    
    I have no privs on this system, nor can I expect much help/support from
    what remains of the IS staff, so whatever suggestions folks offer have
    to work within these constraints.
    
    Thanks,
    	Dave

    Hi,
    
    Could you install ALL-IN-1 on your private machine? If so then you
    could refile documents/folders from the MTS machine to your system.
    This assumes that the MTS system has the license to allow Distributed
    Shared Filing.
    
    Cheers

    Well, right now I have ALL-IN-1 Starter V2.4 on it, with an intention
    to upgrade to a 'possible future release' of the Starter kit soon.
    
    What would be the PAK product name for this so I can check the license
    database?
    
    Also, would the 'Distributed Shared Filing' work to a hidden area node
    (ie where I have to PMR through a pass-thru node?)
    
    Lastly, would this option remove the documents from my local doc quota?
    
    Thanks,
    	Dave

    	No, you need to be able to create a direct DECnet link between
    	the two nodes. PMR is not supported. If you have ALL-IN-1 on the
    	middle node, then you could possibly set things up so that the
    	FileCab server on this middle node would broker your request (a
    	sort of RMR :-) but I'd have to work out how...
    
    Regards,
    Paul

    Ok, assuming I can find a non-hidden node to act as the target, how
    about the other questions in .2 (license etc)?
    
    I've received another suggestion to 
    	create a seperate drawer
    	move stuff to it
    	<cab unshare  them all to get private copies
    	backup the drawer subdirectory
    	delete the drawer
    except I can't seem to do the <cab unshare from the overquota menu. sigh
    
    Grrrrr,
    	Dave
