Moving rosebud to 18.181 at the same time it is moved to a DECstation
would DEFINITELY be MUCH MUCH easier than making it two different
moves. What are your reasons for not putting the DECstation rosebud
online on 18.181?
In fact, it would make it so simple, and still not require any temp
space. Here is how that would happen:
1) put the new machine up as new-rosebud, setup as a fileserver only.
2) start moving all the RW data off rosebud and onto new-rosebud
directly.
3) re-add the RO volumes to new-rosebud
4) Once all the volumes have been moved off rosebud onto new-rosebud,
make sure that no volumes remain on rosebud.
5) add new-rosebud as a db server to the other machines and then
create the db processes on new rosebud
6) remove old-rosebud, if we want, from the db list.
