I recall, also, a detailed discussion of this issue in the past.
However, I don't recall seeing anyone's experiences updated with the new TSM
versions. I just got a new bunch of SSA disk for my RS/6000 too, so I'd be
interested in updated opinions, especially on the use of (ADSM-mirrored) raw
Logical Volumes for DB space?
Additionally, I have begun implementing my "disk"-pool under devclass FILE, as
previously threatened. :)
This is appearing to work vey well. With a sufficiently high Mountlimit on
the devclass, I am getting behavior grossly equivalent to that of disk pools,
but I have the space trivially availiable for reorganization work too.
