Is your library defined to TSM as TYPE=SCSI or TYPE=ACS? -----Original Message----- From: Arthur Hundhammer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, March 13, 2002 10:39 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Taperotation form onsinte to offsite and back
Hi All. we are actually in the in the process of migrating the TSM-Servers from OS/390 to Windows NT. On OS/390, the vault management was done by CA1 and in house written programs. With NT it seems, that this is not so simple. Our environment is: TSM 4.2.1.7 Server on NT, in the moment without DRM EDT-DistibuTAPE 6.4.0 from Gresham Enterprice Software STK Library Station 4.0 (Software from STK) STK 9840 Fibre Channel Drives in a STK Powderhorn Silo on Mainframe OS/390 The TSM-Server and the Drives are connected to SAN. Backup and restores in this environment runs fine. What i'm looking for, is a solution how we can managed and control the transfer from COPYPOOL-Tapes and DB -BACKUP-Tapes from ONSITE to OFFSITE location and back to ONSITE after the tapes are empty. Further, how can we determine the tapes that must go OFFSITE (Copypool and TSM - Database Backup Tapes) and later if the tapes are empty go back to STKs Powderhorn. Your expirence and help are greatly appreciated Kind Regards Arthur Hundhammer Linde AG Munich [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
