Renaming a chunk to a nonexistent device

To rename a chunk to a nonexistent device:

  1. Rename the chunk: using the following command: ontape -r -rename -p /chunk3 -o 0 -n /chunk3N -o 0
  2. When the following prompt appears, enter y to continue: 
    The chunk /chunk3N does not exist. If you continue, the restore 
may fail later for the dbspace which contains this chunk. 
Continue without creating this chunk? (y/n)

    The chunk /chunk3 is renamed to /chunk3N, but the data has not yet been restored to /chunk3N.

  3. Perform a level-0 archive.
  4. Add the physical device for /chunk3N.
  5. Perform a warm restore of sbspace1 with the ontape -r -D sbspace1 command.
  6. Perform a level-0 archive.
