Hi! Does anyone have any good tips on sizing a TSM server appropriately? I do have the sizing tool but there is so much manual work in trying to populate that to get any information, particularly when you don't have documentation for every environment. I would welcome some comparisons if you care to share. I will have automated tape libraries at each location also, ranging from a L180, L700 or Powderhorn.
I have 5 different sites to size: 1.) 40 servers - 1.5 tb storage total 2.) 50 servers - 1 tb storage total 3.) 300 servers - 11 tb. storage 4.) 125 servers - 6 tb. storage 5.) Moving from Mainframe to Unix - and merging two different backup environments into one. TSM on OS/390 - Current occupancy is 18 TB, TSM database = 18gb Upstream - 325 clients Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.
