Has anyone setup TSM 4.2 on AIX 4.3.3 using Cambex HBAs and compaq
storageworks disk for the disk pool ? Any luck out there?

We are thinking about upgrading our TSM server (AIX 4.3) and clients (WinNT,
AIX, Solaris) from TSM 4.2 to TSM 5.1. Has anyone encountered upgrade
issues? All feedback is very much appreciated. Thanks, John

Hi folks--
We're interested in archiving output from the TDP agents for Exchange and
SQL Server. In both user manuals under Policy Recommendations, Tivoli says
that 'archive copy groups can exist but are not required'. Does that mean

Has anyone tried doing a TSM DB backup to file to a NFS mounted filesystem
(with the NFS host machine being at another site with a big fat pipe in
between?).

Hey TSMers-
We have archive jobs that repeatedly fail or run for long periods of time on
our large file servers (200 GB, NT, TSM 4.2 Client, TSM 4.2 Server). The
jobs will not run in parallel with daily backups- so we are looking for a
better solution-
We are considering moving from 100 Mb to Giga
We've considered using either FTP (or NFS mounted filesystems if performance
is acceptable) to accomlish the same thing for copying all of our critical
server objects/files to an alternate site- the DB backup to file should make
this all relatively easy--

I agree- we have tried to run unload/load DB and audit DB to either conserve
space or cleanup the database and found in both cases that the time required
(we have 100 GB databases) was not worth the effort. R.Sims comments on this
make sense too, since DB space is random, however we still face 1.3

In measuring restore performance, or developing estimates, does anyone have
a SQL Query to show the volumes required to restore all active data for a
client or filespace? This could be useful in developing DR SLA's, building
policies, storage pool design, etc.
Many Thanks,
