This is what we have: - Two remote sites ( Atlanta and Miami). - Two TSM v4r2l1.9 servers on AIX 5.1, one on each site. - Each TSM server has a serial connected IBM Magstar 3494 Library, with FC attached 3590 E tape drives, through Brocade 2800 switch. - Each TSM server backing up its local clients over the LAN, for over 1 TB daily each. - Each TSM server ejecting daily over 30 K tapes to be sent to the off-site vault. This is what we want: - Have each site as off-site tape vault for the other. - Remote connect each site library over the WAN, through brocade switches, and FCIP CNT UltraNet Storage Router. - Make a remote copy pool for each TSM server, and start making the off-site tapes in the remote TSM server/library. Questions: * Does anyone has implemented a similar solution? * Any bad or good experience doing this? * Any thing to take into consideration before starting this project? Any input is appreciated.
