Neil,
thanks for your detailed information. I've checked with IBM support.
Unfortunately our 3592-E05 Drives are not encryption capable. IBM support told
me that we can purchase a feature code (with the result, that all our drives
would be replaced with new one), but our management didn't want
We are starting to experience constant issues with the Domino TDP
(Solaris) and trying to run the webclient to perform restores (API plugin
failures). The failures are helter-skelter with no pattern.
Before I call IBM, I figured I would upgrade the clients (base and TDP) to
the latest, since that

Is it possible to run 'move data' or 'move nodedata' commands from either
LTO1 or LTO2 device class to LTO4? What about from LTO1/2 to LTO3? Has anyone
done this?

I would ask your management how much a single lost tape with unencrypted data
would cost.
- Public exposure
- Customer confidence
- Government/legal investigation
- Competitor acquiring your proprietary information
Encryption on tape drive provides a highly scalable, near zero impact,
manageable
That's correct, one of the real nice things about TSM.
This is basically the same as migrating from any kind of
disk pool to any kind of tape pool, doesn't matter the
media type/technology.
You do need to remember though that after you have
migrated ALL of your onsite tape pool and it's offsite c
That sounds great! So to confirm, there are no technical gotchas that are

Thanks, Bill!

OK I'm confused. :)
I asked: "That sounds great! So to confirm, there are no technical gotchas
that are going to prevent data movement from one media type (LTO1/2) ton
another (LTO3/4)? Anyone else done this?"
I receive the two following responses:
"Well, yes there is.

Yep. Thanks!
We're going to migrate when time comes, not "rip out and replace".
Thanks again!

The only way to guarantee that your stuff will not expire, is to change the
copy group retention to NOLIM/NOLIM/NOLIM/NOLIM.
SO here's what I would do:
Copy the domain EXCHANGE to a new domain EXCHANGE-FREEZE
Update the copy groups in that domain to verexist=NOLIM, retextra=NOLIM, etc
etc

Excellent! (On the renaming idea).

Creating the "new" copypool on the LTO4 tapes is going to be a big hit at the

Another thing I would do is to rename your existing LTO1/2 stgpools to

The 3592-J1A drives (the original 3592s) require an upgrade to support

There are 3592-E05 drives which require an additional feature ($$) to

All new TS1120-E05 come with encryption capability out of the box. You
can then use the Encryption Key Manager (EKM), which is a free download
from IBM , or use TSM encryption. If you have multiple TSM server
sharing a library, you will need to use EKM for central management of
the keys.

Chip,
I only see the Fourth Edition (June 2006) Implementaion Guide (This
edition applies to IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Version 5.3.2.)
Is there a newer one that covers 5.5?
Thanks

would not need to change the copy group retention to nolimit across the

You're probably right. But according to the IBM Redbooks Weekly Newsletter,
there was a revision in December. I haven't reviewed to see if it was a major

Yes, you change ALL the copy group retentions to NOLIM, but ONLY in the
EXCHANGE-FREEZE domain. And the only client in that domain
is CLIENT-FREEZE, the original Exchange backup client.
So those backups are locked down, but everything else (including the new
registration of your Exchange client)
DOH! OK, you said copy group retention, I read copy storage pool retention.
Understood now.
