Hi,
You can increase your database a hundred(maybe even a thousand), times
bigger without suffering
performance problems.
In the Admin guide the space occupied by each object (30Million of them), is
explained.
You will definately need to increase your db size.

Dirk,
If you are using the same media type, yes you can place the existing
media in the new Library. First, you will have to define the new library
and update the device class definition to reflect the new library. After
loading your tapes in the library you will need to perform a library
audit.
I have been experimenting with doing Domino backups directly to LTO tape.
We are trying to do this since in the future, our Domino systems will

Since it doesn't work I limit the searches by a 'where' statement.

We are actually using a version control program called Continuus and moving

Probably a matter of where to best deploy experienced programming talent

Yes. If using the GUI, after selecting the database on the restore tab
use the right-mouse button on the database entry in order
to enter the new database name... and also to choose the
locations for the new database files.
You can also do this from the command-line.

The look and feel of the GUI has changed, most of my scripts won't work now so I have
just begun to dig into what changes have disabled them and the SA's indicated that
there is new reporting functionality built into this latest patch (but as of yet I've
been unable to find what that is).

After previously asking why my 5.1.8.3 to 5.2.3 migration failed when
there was no information in the readme and I didn't see anything of note
on the list, I got two replies. The first suggested that I should read
the Quick Start. The other noted that there is a problem with the
license manager.
Would anyone share their dsm.opt, especially includes and excludes for a TSM

Does anyone know where to find the a installation and users guide for V5.2.2

Thanks for any help.

With that many files, I think Richard Sims is on target as to where your
problems will arise. Your database will grow quite a bit, but you can
calculate that from the Admin Guide formulas. Our DB is over 100GB and
it runs fine, so just throw some disk space at it and it will be fine.
