I am looking for war-stories, experiences, suggestions, ideas from you folks that have implemented backing up desktop machines, which could expand into thousands of additional TSM nodes.
I have been tasked with looking into doing this. The current guidelines is to "only backup 'documents and settings/users' folder, excluding all music files (mp3/wmv/wav/flac/ogg)". My first thought is to stand-up a new server (or two). Create a default policy-domain with short retention (30-days or less) with few copies (2) and a cloptset with an exclude everything and include doc & settings/users plus exclude or the music files. -- *Zoltan Forray* TSM Software & Hardware Administrator Virginia Commonwealth University UCC/Office of Technology Services zfor...@vcu.edu - 804-828-4807 Don't be a phishing victim - VCU and other reputable organizations will never use email to request that you reply with your password, social security number or confidential personal information.
