That is exactly what I was thinking, I should have saw the messages in the log. I didn't, so I'm going to assume they were not labeled. -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kelly Lipp Sent: January 25, 2007 1:26 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST

You should have seen messages in the actlog that the tapes were labeled. If you didn't I would suspect they weren't labeled. Take a harder look at the actlog to confirm... Kelly J. Lipp VP Manufacturing & CTO STORServer, Inc. 485-B Elkton Drive Colorado Springs, CO 80907 719-266-8777 [EMAIL PRO

We might have a change in policy where we no longer need a 2nd copy of certain storage pools. If this were the case, would it be ok for me to just delete volume with discarddata=yes on those volumes, or when I discarddata does that affect my primary tape pool also. Looks like I'll be able to free u

Hi Joni, I think you should take advantage of the different types of DB backups that Tivoli is offering : Dbbackups and Dbsnapshots. You could use tape based devclass for dbbackups and disk based devclass for dbbsnapshots, thus using different retention values for each of them. Do not forget that
