I run TSM 6.1.2.0 in a vSphere environment and it runs just fine on Windows 2008, I would recommend giving it two vCPU's if you can because it will fill up 1 vCPU easy. I use a dedupe filepool on SATA storage, no tape attached.
I have tried a virtual TSM server with SCSI tape connection on ESX 2.5.4 and that was an disaster, every time there was a low level SCSI message from the Library I would purple screen of death the ESX host. :) -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ads...@vm.marist.edu] Namens Micka Verzonden: dinsdag 2 februari 2010 18:06 Aan: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Onderwerp: [ADSM-L] Virtual TSM Hi, I'm looking at virtualising our TSM server. The OS on the current server is pretty messed up so I would prefer to start from scratch. Can I install/configure a new server then transfer the database? Version 5, Release 4, Level 4.0 Thanks, Michael +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by micka...@hotmail.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +----------------------------------------------------------------------
