Unfortunately, we still have a legacy AIT4/AIT3 requirement. I'm thinking the best way to go is to upgrade our library to one that supports fibre, instead of dealing with this fibre-bridge mess Regards, Shawn Shawn Drew Internet [EMAIL PROTECT

GENERATE BACKUPSET speed question

2008-07-22 Thread David Longo
I have TSM server 5.4.3.0 with IBM 3584 Tape library with LTO drives. I have never used Generate Backupset and decided to do some testing to see how long it takes to create, for instance. I am using LTO tape for the backupset, and using one entire node, not individual filespaces and use toc=no. In

It is essentially performing a restore. If you're data for that node is spread out, it will take a long time. I've tested backupsets from VTL disk to real LTO volumes, and it went extremely fast. See how many different tapes your node's data is spread out on. Regards, Shawn

Amazing! I had read in docs about increased performance if using collocation - and I understand that. I only have collocation on a few nodes here. But this means DRAMATIC performance increase?! APAR says that it has to scan entire storage pool vol to see if it matches what is needed. This soun

Yes, this is a zoning thing and you are seeing the same devices multiple times. - I'm not sure about Windows, but in AIX, if you are using the atape drive, one of the devices is actually the proper one to use for multiple paths. You just use that one and ignore the others. You should check the At
