Just one point to add to that - with the DS4x00 series storage arrays you only
have one preferred controller active at a time per LUN - so if you split the db
into two LUNs you have the option to have each LUN running across a separate
controller, with I/O performance gains as a result. If you'

Does anyone run, or know someone that does, a TSM version 6 server on a cluster
of some sort? There's a ton of documentation on using TSM clients with
clustered servers, but as far as clustering the TSM server application itself
I'm drawing a blank. It wasn't so hard with version 5 but version

I echo the other replies to this one - and make the following points:
- part of the life of a TSM administrator is to educate users, with the aid of
simple and realistic examples rather than TSM jargon. People sometimes find it
a hard concept to get, but once they do, they generally come around

Yes it would.
If you're doing an 'audit library' use the checklabel=barcode option to make it

Unfortunately not - you must uninstall the TSM v5 binaries before installing
TSM v6.
You could try a separate LPAR however.

We hit the exact same issue in test - so we took a rather butcher-ish approach:
- When starting up the 'old' server following the extract, we defined a new,
temporary stgpool and directed all new data to that pool. All other volumes
were marked 'read only'.
- normal night's backup ran, to the te

Hi,
I'm keen to make use of the new features in TSM 6.3, one of which is node
replication. However, the client I'm working with has limited bandwidth
between datacenters and there is no way that 4TB of change a day is going to be
copied across the link even if it is deduplicated. Is there a w

You could, if you really want a SQL query, run the following SQL on a regular
basis and dump the output to a file, which will give you a listing on the day
of the tapes for that criteria:

It's late in the day, but my 2c here is to add that it's not always necessary
in Windows to use separate drive letters for LUNs - it's possible to 'mount' a
volume under a directory rather than eating letters. This would appear to be a
much more scalable approach - however, the difficulty as we
