Hi,
How can I force Sm-SQL to create a new dataset in Protection Manager? I am in a situation that I need to save the old data set for a while, but want to create a new data set.
Thanks,
Hans

Actually, I just tested this in my lab. What I did was just rename the existing data-set to "-old" or something and SM-SQL does not see a data-set anymore. After that I ran the "configuration wizard" and SM-SQL created a new data-set.
I agree that you will not be able to restore from the old data-set using SM-SQL, this you need to do manually. But for this is enough.
Cheers,
Hans

I don't think this can be done. The dataset always has a fixed name and SMSQL will use it if one exists already, or create a new one if it doesn't. Removing the dataset should not remove any volumes so you can still access the snaps, but you can't then use SMSQL to restore from them.
