There's not a single tasklist you can work on because of differing

We are about to start backing up our enterprise databases.
They are comprised of about 15 Oracle instances ranging from 7GB to 25GB.
About a third are being backed up nightly and the others are either 1 or 2 times
weekly.
On the server side, we will set up a seperate stgpool hierarchy as they the
The install readme says use ultrium or ultriumc.
Also, as Richard mentioned, look at the microcode on the drives.

Before we got proper labels we made a bunch of labels on a crappy $200 colour

I can definitely say they none of them had problems (except a couple labels fell off

I complained about the problem too. The response I got was, when the system was
too busy it took a whi

I have no idea how the library controller/tape drive communicates with the
TSM server, but it works.

You just create different sequential access storage pools.
What reason would you want them to handle their own tapes?
(..just in case one of them purges their own tapes?)
The data on those tapes cannot be used in another server.
Have a look at the "Tivoli Storage Manager Concepts" redbook
from h
We have a similar situation..
Incrementals Mon-Sat and Full(+DBS to go offsite) on Sundays.
This is done on our DDS drive (created a manual DATclass).
The incrementals are DDS2 tapes and the full/DBS are DDS3.
(BTW. our DB is 18GB and hasn't filled the tape yet)
We have a compressed file (~8Meg)

You will have to explain this a little better.
Are you talking about backing up _through_ the SAN?
i.e. File level Lan-Free

You only need to run an Incremental backup to reset the recovery log.
Our regime is a full backup + DBSnapshot(sent offsite) on Sunday on hi-density
tapes and incrementals once a day (or twice, if recovery log fills up during the
day) on low-density ones using a 2 week rotation.
It is manually
