This might work for us, we'll look into it. Thanks! -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Colwell, William F. Sent: Thursday, March 29, 2007 10:00 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: HSM for Windows
Debbie, I have a suggestion to give you 6 months on disk, then push to tape. This will work especially well with file disk. Make multiple stgpools, for example, march, april, etc. Using a script or schedule, update the archive destination to use the current month stgpool. Using another script or schedule, migrate the pool 6 months later. The file type scratch volumes will be freed and so you will have only a net of 6 months worth of migrated files stored on TSM disk.

Tape retrievals take too long. We would prefer a hierarchical system that would allow, for example, files not touched in 6 months to go to disk, then if still not touched for another 6 months they migrate to tape. With the way this product works we will have to either manually create the hierarchy, or leave everything on disk. Not much of a savings there. Might as well just add the extra disk to the file server. -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Francisco Molero Sent: Wednesday, March 28, 2007 6:22 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: HSM for Windows Hi, I don't agree with you I think it is a more or les a good product, I only detect a problem " Reconcile Files". But you can backup and restore stub files from TSM client and you can restore one stub and recall the file from HSM and you don't need to recall all files. In case you lost a directory with 10000 files you restore the stub files it is more quickly. Other point is you need to establish a archive copy group with a long retention because you can recall a file because you have the stub file and this can be expired in the TSM Server. ----- Mensaje original ---- De: Allen S.

We are HIGHLY disappointed with this product. When I heard about it ( Long Time Ago: Last Oxford ) my comment was that it is not really like anything that I've seen labeled HSM before. Previous discussion, last January, starts: http://www2.marist.edu/htbin/wlvtype?ADSM-L.118435 I piped up here: http://www2.marist.edu/htbin/wlvtype?ADSM-L.118453 I think your observations mesh well with mine, though you're looking at it from a slightly different perspective. Beware about the "back up the migrated stub file" problem. - Allen S. Rout ______________________________________________ LLama Gratis a cualquier PC del Mundo.
