Hello everyone, I have some questions about backup verification and would like to seek some advice.
When I backup using TSM, how can I verify that the backup is good ? What I mean is when TSM write to tape, how do I verify that the write-to-tape process is good. I come from VMS backup. In VMS, it has a command: BACKUP /VERIFY, which will write the file to tape, rewind the tape and read the backup file. This will ensure that the file I wrote to the tape is good. The disadvantage is backup time is much longer. How does TSM do backup verification ? By checksum, by rewind and read ? Is it possible to specifiy the verification method ?
