Hi everyone!
We are in the process of formulating an AIX environment instead of our current MVS TSM environment. We would have 2 TSM servers (one being the library manager) with 2 directors, 8 lan-free clients and 24 tape drives, which we hope to share between the 2 TSM servers. We would like to have 2 fibre interfaces per drive in order to eliminate a single point of failure. My question is, how does TSM know which path it is using to the drive and how does it know that one of the paths to an individual drive is already in use? Is there software out there to manage this or is it done through the hardware configuration? If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it! Thanks!
