PIT restore question

2003-02-05 Thread Hans Hedlund
I was wondering... If I have a backup copygroup that says VEREXIST=10 and all three other variables "No Limit", what would a point-in-time restore, from say 6 months ago, do with a file that has been backed up more than 10 times during the last 6 months? The file existed 6 months ago, but since I

Library sharing - best practise?

2002-11-27 Thread Hans Hedlund
Hi, I'm thinking of implementing library sharing with my 3584 library over my SAN, so that two or more different TSM servers can share the same library. Plain and simple and standard procedure. But somewhere in the back of my head I think I heard some issues about where to place the library manag

I found a nice website explaining the different types of SCSI, it's at: http://www.cablingdirectory.com/techinfo/scsiinfo/scsi.htm Check if you can find a small symbol next to the connector on the SCSI card indicating what type of SCSI it is. The LVD and HVD/Differential symbols differs (see the
