John,

I have not been through this scenario as you describe but i have had the
power cut to a bank of RVA containing primary DB and LOG volumes.
TSM was able to carry on using the mirror DB and LOG volumes. A message was
displayed saying the primary could not be written top and the miror would be
used. Once the RVA was back up and runing TSM realised that the DB and LOG
volumes were out of synch and resynched them.

If you require any more info drop me a line on the address below.

While i am here has anyone any advice for using mirroring on one ESS 2105
F20?.

Thanks.

Kuli.

I know this must be a pretty boring subject, but anyone been there ?
This can't be the first time anyone has gone down this road.
Would appreciate your experience

Subject:  TSM mirroring

Hi all Tsmers,

I am looking to introduce database/recovery log mirroring into into our
OS390
TSM 3.7.20
environment to cater for cross site disaster recovery.
The thinking is to use our cross site dasd capability to have the primary
database and recovery log volumes written at site1 and the mirror copies
written
at site2 or vice versa.
Then if we lost site1 we would start a new instance of TSM on site2
I will be testing this scenario before going into a live environment, but
from
anyone who
has already been there in a real disaster or disaster test, I have a few
questions.

1) When you come up on site2, does TSM cope ok with the misiing database/log
volumes

2) Are there any gotchas I need to be aware of.

3) Any recommendations for the flavour of mirroring to go with. Are the
defaults
ok?

4) Does mirroring have any significant impact on performance, especially if
you
go with
the non default options

Tia,
John
