We are putting up a "big honkin Dell server" for a new TSM server. This box has 8=1TB internal drives.
There has been an argument going on about how to properly partition this space, for the LZ. We use GPT since standard tools don't like >2TB filesystems. If we create a 6TB LZ with GPT, will TSM have a problem formatting volumes in this space? What is the max size of a disk storage pool volume, anyway? I have been scouring the Admin Guide/Reference and still haven't seen a fixed max value. I did Google and found an IBM document that says a lot of this info is undocumented. BTW, Neither I nor my co-worker are receiving most mailings from this list. Every day or two, some trickle through. Can someone tell me who to contact at Marist to see what is going on?
