Moving containers

You can move containers from one storage class to another. You must define Database Dynamic Storage Tiering parameters before you can set movement policies for external files.

To move containers

  1. Access the Database Dynamic Storage Tiering Move Containers wizard.

    See “To access the tiered storage movement wizards in the Java GUI”.

    The containers and their assigned storage classes display in the Move Containers wizard. To sort, click on column headings.

  2. Select the containers to move.

  3. Select the storage class to which the containers will be moved.

  4. To assign the selected containers to the selected storage class, click Set class.

  5. Repeat as needed for each class of storage until all datafiles are assigned correctly. A blank storage class indicates the tablespace is not moved.

  6. To move the datafiles, click Finish.
