6. Change the BRJOBS volume. For example:

7. Delete the original BRJOBS volume. For example:

Changing the Work Volume
To distribute activity over multiple disk volumes, you can specify different work volumes
for different backup or restore jobs. To create a new work volume for a job, use the
WORKVOLUME configuration option when starting the job. For more information, see
Changing the Configuration Options for One Job on page 3-4
To change the default work volume to be used for future jobs, use the ALTER CONFIG
command:
1. Use the STATUS JOB command to check that there are no active jobs. Jobs with
the INIT, RUN, WAIT, CAT, or TERM job states are active.
BR> STATUS JOB * ;
2. If any jobs are active, you must wait for them to finish. Alternatively, you can use
the STOP or ABORT JOB commands to stop the active jobs.
3. Change the work volume:
BR> ALTER CONFIG,WORKVOLUME $newworkvolume
Changing the Configuration Options for One
Job
By default, each backup or restore job uses the configuration option values shown in
the INFO CONFIG display. For more information,
see Displaying the Configuration Information in the BRCONFIG File
on page 3-1. To
override the configuration in the BRCONFIG file for one job, you can specify any
configuration option except the BRJOBS volume in the BACKUP or RESTORE
command.
