I'll amplify what Skylar said: if your goal for this disk pool is short term
storage then I probably wouldn't use any RAID protection as the data will be
backed up to tape and then migrated to tape again. And as Skylar said,
worst case, the client will send it again if it somehow escapes.

If it's true that the Celera compresses then it probably won't look like the
previous version of the file so it won't deduplicate. Then the question
becomes: maybe don't compress but rather send all the bits and let it get
deduplicated - will this result in better storage utilization?

That assumes that the compression occurs file by file. Is that true or is on

compress the file into the same set of bits. If it doesn't do that though,

more of your time if there
is a problem.
The most prevalent issues we have seen are integrating with libraries and
drives as you would expect. Perhaps if you stay with IBM tape products these
problems would be less? Who knows.

IBM x3850, dual quad core processors, 16GB, 7 PCI-E slots with four 2.5 15K
SAS 73GB drives (have to use external storage on this guy), around $14K. Can
have up to four quad core procs, 256GB memory.
This is one screaming dude when used with TSM. And it's IBM...

Nothing until reclamation happens on the volumes. Then they will be reclaimed
appropriate to the collocation type selected. You can force the issue by doing
move data operations on the volumes. Newly arriving data from clients will be
placed onto tape according to the collocation type.

it probably does. But at what cost? And then more importantly: do
either of the platforms have enough for you? If both do, then pick the one
that makes more sense based on your OS experience. And remember: one can
always divide and conquer.

migrate data from disk to tape and having to back that data up. In the case of
a 500GB database that will reduce the amount of data flowing through your
server from 1.5TB to 500GB. Huge savings. And the write to two tapes happens
at the same speed as to one.

I don't think the comment that simultaneous writes won't work for LAN Free.
The simultaneous write thing happens at the storage pool level (copystg=
parameter).

Get rid of the double quote before the /filedev1 and the space after the , and
you should be fine.

Is cache=yes on that pool? Are you talking about percent utilized or percent
migratable? I'm reasonably sure you know the difference but thought I'd
confirm...

time in half. You
can't improve the file create rate by using multiple streams. In fact, that
actually reduces the rate.
I'm still advocating the image route.

think end-to-end,
using image will be quicker. Perhaps a little slower on the backup, but
remarkably quicker on the restore. Now, if the number of files is less than a
million, say, that might not be so.

mongo AIX box. I'd rather do that.

I don't think that's true. The purpose of the new code was to eliminate the

One lane per drive (each lane is 3Gb/sec transfer rate, well fast enough for

have any firsthand experience with that config.
