Hi all,
It strikes me that is should be possible in principle to
upgrade the OS on a DPM disk server without draining it by
simply installing the new OS over the old one and setting
up a fresh install of the DPM pool node. All the file
metadata is stored on the head node, and the files' physical
paths won't change.
However, I'm not aware of anyone doing this. Does this
sound like it should work and has anyone actually tried?
Or indeed does everyone do this routinely and I've just
never noticed.....
