Hi all,
I've got a bit of a problem here. Let me start with what we have: - TSM V5.4.1.1 server running on LPAR P570 AIX V5.3-05-CSP - One TS3500 with 6 LTO3 and 2 new LTO4 drives. - Two virtual libraries, one with LTO3 drives and one with LTO4 drives - Library and drives are at latest firmware level - AMLS and encryption license are enabled - Configured LTO4 library to application-encryption, in other words TSM server is in charge of encryption keys Goal: Migrate our big DWH Oracle environment to LTO4 non-encrypted storagepool for onsite storage and make a backup of this stgp to encrypted offsite stgp. Why back it up unencrypted locally, because if data is being encrypted you can't compress it so we wouldn't take the full advantage of the data capacity of LTO4 tapes. So far so good Problem: When I start backing up from non-encrypted stgp to encrypted stgp I get a hardware error every time. I've placed a call with software support and run tracings but they suggested placing a hardware call as they can't find anything within TSM. Now if I put this encrypted deviceclass to driveencryption=no and run a backup, everything is running smoothly. Till now I've backupped 6Tb without any problems. Does this sounds familiar to someone??? Any help is appreciated...
