Hello,
Please help on the following:
1) Does any of the following configurations work for backups of raw logical
volumes ( namely EMC Symmetrix BCV and SRDF volumes ):
EMC Symmetrix <------ Fibre Channel ------> IBM RS/6000 server + TSM
v4.1 <-------------- Fibre Channel ------------------->3584 LTO Tape
Library
OR
EMC Symmetrix <------ Fibre Channel ------> EMC Connectrix ( Brocade
OEMed ) switch <----------- Fibre Channel---->IBM RS/6000 server + TSM
v4.1 <--------- Fibre Channel ---------->3584 LTO Tape Library
Are there any particular issues to take into account ?
2) Where I can find some guidelines / rules of thumb for sizing the TSM
server ( processors, memory etc. ) ? In the redbooks I browsed I found
some information regarding network / tape library sizing but very sketchy
info about the server.
Many thanks in advance for any hint.
Best Regards,
Sorin Serb
