Re: Large volume file move

["Tyler, Matt" <matt.tyler@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

So you are going to use up expensive ha space for documents when they are already being stored on lower priced hardware?   


I am in the middle of a project doing the opposite.  I used a query on the indexing database with in a SP that then runs the QSH command, mv, run in SP QCMDEXC. Then I assume it’s done correctly and and I update the index database entry.   

Time effort is actually quite a lot of effort.  I think it was up to 5 seconds per document.
