Its been a long time since I've worked with 3494's. But I don't think you even have to partition them. You just have to use different category codes for the different systems.

If the libraries are partitioned, he can just connect his two hosts to each library and assign access through the 3494 CU. Which is simplest is just a matter of how the existing environment looks. If the libraries are already partitioned for the two hosts, no TSM library manager is needed, just make an entry for each library in the ibmatl.conf and assign access in the 3494 CU. if the libraries are not partitioned, and there is limited 3494 competence on-site, perhaps TSM library sharing is the way to go. It all depends on Gary's requirements (like, can we share volumes between the two TSM servers, or do they need to be divided).

Than can be a standalone instance or the existing instance that has exclusive access (the latter being the easier option with an environment of this size) Thanks Steven On 14 December 2011 14:22, Lee, Gary D. <g...@bsu.edu> wrote: > I have two 3494 libraries at different locations. > I would like to have both defined to both of my tsm servers. > > Is it possible to define two libraries in the ibmatl.conf file, and if so, > how to define them to tsm? > > If not, am I correct that the other option is to share the libraries as > necessary defining appropriate tsm servers as library managers? > > Thanks for the assistance. > > > > Gary Lee > Senior System Programmer > Ball State University > phone: 765-285-1310 > >
