For someone as experienced as you, I find them more trouble to modify them than to do without them. (E.G, the paths in the planfile won't be right; the UPDATE VOL script is downright silly when you can do that with 1 command now; will want to use RAW volumes at the recovery site instead of JFS. etc. However, I do want the INFORMATION in the planfile to be available. So we just print it and send the print to the vault with the tapes. How about we start a list of 50 ways to retrieve your planfile?!? 1) print it 2) mail it to a desktop that does have a floppy 3) mail it to yourself (and other key players) on your home email address so you can download it at your hot site 4) FTP it to your hotsite server 5) ... ... (everybody should be humming along with Paul Simon at this point...) hmmmmmmmmm -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kauffman, Tom Sent: Wednesday, July 12, 2006 2:47 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Another D/R question We've never used the DRM module in TSM -- it was far too expensive when we first started, so we rolled our own procedures (which work quite well, I might add :-) but I'd like to look at DRM now that it's part of the suite. So -- for those of you using DRM -- how do you get the plan file and associated scripts off-site? I'm running on AIX; the system has the TSM tape library and a DVD-RAM drive. The hotsite system is in the same boat -- so floppy is out. And a mksysb to the DVD drive takes about 4 hours to write, so that won't be a daily occurance.
