Hi, I'd like to know if it's possible to use TSM in an environment with only a single LTO2 tape drive and a few TB of hard disk space. In particular I'd like to know how tape reclamation could be done, or if it can be done at all. Thanks in advance Jerome Alet

We used the VTL to reduce the disk pool size. We use disk pools to prevent the issue you are having. We wanted to make sure the TSM backend processing would not be interfered with by a node that is not able to complete a backup during the normal time. The only nodes that go straight to tape (

Hi Joerg, You shouldn't have any problems using the 5.5.2.0 upgrade utilities to upgrade a server at 5.5.2.1. When we put that statement in the book, we were mostly worried about database schema changes that might be implemented in 5.5.3.0 and beyond. There are no schema changes between 5.5.2.0

If the tapes will have different barcodes you may not need to partition. We have a 3494 shared between TSM and BRMS. Each has its own barcode range and we divided the tape drives through zoning. Just be sure each application checks in the correct barcode range. Andy Huebner -Original Me
