Morning all !!
About to suggest to management we close our partition. There are so many benefits they would be absolutely mad not to. I have not heard of anyone having any negative issues with closing a partition but knowing what sticklers they are for procedures, change control in this case (I work in a state government department), they will want a rollback procedure. I have not found anything in doco or on this forum re 're-opening' a closed partiton so was wondering if anyone has any ideas ? Is it just a matter of ensuring a complete full backup beforehand and then restoring if need be ? What if the partition is closed for a couple of weeks and then they decide, for whatever reason, we need to revert back to how it was - what would the procedure be then ? We have journaling enabled (it is on a seperate disk/partition).
So I guess I am asking, if I need to revert back to my original open partiton after closing it, how do I go about it and add in the new data from when I closed it ?
