Tape and disk traffic in FCoE Adapters

2010-09-14 Thread Mehdi Salehi
Hi, It is always recommended to separate tape and disk traffic in TSM environments. How about when adapters are NPIV logical HBAs? Does it make sense to assign two logical adapters (one for disk and another for tape) from a single adapter port to an AIX partition? The adapter is an 8Gb/s FC or a

To my way of thinking, if you have a single pathway (no matter how it looks to other environments), you'd like to keep the same type of traffic on that pathway and not mix disk and tape. I'd keep tape and disk on separate physical adapters ... virtualize as much as you like, but separate the

Hi, one of the major issues is that tape drives, most notably older and cheaper drives, tend to 'misbehave'. Some send out a scsi reset after each dismount, causing your disk traffic to stop. And I've heard even worse stories. Another thing is that modern drives have no problems moving 200

TDP error with 6.2.1.0 API

Re: Tape and disk traffic in FCoE Adapters

2010-09-14 Thread Mehdi Salehi
Hi, IMO SCSI reset command should not harm disk traffic if disk and tape are connected to separate NPIV adapters. Actually they are separate physical adapters except that they share the same medium for their own FC frames in lower levels. Needless to say that SCSI is an upper layer protocol.

Hi I'm sure you are right on the SCSI reset point. That protocol is implemented higher up. Though I think the gist of the answer was more of a don't know and that was an example of what's happened in the past. Some of us have had some odd happenings when mixing in the past. You are also right
