We are considering creating an extremely large TSM disk storage pool (IE: 1-10TB). The goal being to eliminate going to tape. Does anyone have any really BIG disk pools? Are there tools available for managing large TSM disk pools over time. (IE: Reclamation, Aging Data, etc) The documentation from Tivoli suggests that we need to set it up as a device type=FILE. What are the drawbacks using this approach? Is performance dramatically impacted? etc...
Thanks in advance, Mark Hokanson Thomson Legal & Regulatory
