Hello, I have an Archive Storagepool which is backed up to a server at a distant location. Now a Customer wants to have his archived data to be backed up to yet another location, offsite. The data will be offsite for about five years. This is supposed to be a one-time operation. I expect that if the data from the offsite-location is ever needed, the tsm-server version will have changed, the old version may be even unsupported.
A year ago I have had problems with exporting data. The old server was running version 5.2 and that was not supported anymore. So this time I am looking for a somehow TSM-Server-Version independent way to backup the data. First thing I had in mind was creating a backupset. But unfortunately, backupsets seem to only work with Backup-Data. Exporting the Data or creating backupsets seem to be a nice thing, because they both do not increase the size of the db. Is there anything else, you can recommend? - Wido
