Hi Bill, I like Wanda's point. MAXSCRatch is the best way to control tape usage. You can probably write a fun select to see how many nodes have data on the average tape. In Wanda's example, there are about 2 nodes per tape. If you see that that number gets too high, you can increase MAXSCRatch. O

Re: How to figure collocation overhead

2009-01-15 Thread Wanda Prather
Collocation consumes as much of the library as you tell it to. When you set MAXSCRATCH on a storage pool, TSM will confine the pool to that number of tapes. If you have less tapes available than you have clients, you get a "do the best you can" collocation. There are plenty of sites who have mor

Re: How to figure collocation overhead

You can easily determine how many "lines" of tapes you will initially break out into, based upon which of the multiple types of collocation you ultimately decide upon and how many nodes or filespaces are active, sending data to TSM storage. I would double that number to account for "tape leak", b

SQL Server backups with mirrors

I have a client with 2 SQLServer boxes: CL01 and CL02. Each has its own set of databases, but there are 3 databases on CL01 that are mirrored over to CL02. The TDP backup on CL02 fails on those 3 databases because they are used in a mirror. The owner doesn't want to exclude those databases on CL02

I think you should treat all skipped open files the same way. Unless you know for sure that taking a backup of an open file is OK, I think OFS just gives you a false warm and fuzzy feeling. Just because you get a backup doesn't necessarily mean it's a GOOD backup. So now you're at D/R and that crit

Jason, Before you go further down the OFS rabbit hole: On Windows, it is rare to use OFS for backups of MS apps like SQL. Those files are in use by MS SQL. Backing them up via OFS just gives you a copy of a possibly unstable/inconsistent file that may not be usable on restore. When you see tho
