Hi,

Reading the threat and missing something. Why another stg? 

For normal backup data I like to use JBOD config. No read protection at
all and maximum usable GB per disk. In order to minimize the number of
storage pools needed, ITSM 5.3 has the collecation by group option.

So, my 5.2 config is JBOD and more stg pools. My 5.3 config is less stg
pools and collocation groups. 

Regards,

Karel

Yes, in a world of infinite funding, we would all use RAID1 or RAID10
:-)

Sadly I do not work in such an environment, so the choice was RAID1 and
not enough disk pool to possibly hold a night's backups, or RAID5 with
(barely) enough space... I choose the later option, and this thread is
about me trying to keep the (barely) bit intact.
