Hi all, Iam few problem with TSM setup i have right now. The current setup is --> TSM Server (4.1.3.0 ) running on NT4.0 SP6a. LTO library (3583 L18) is connected through SCSI interface. Currently I'am backing up 24 (NT and Solaris clients) total of 500 GB client data I have configure 3 policy domains one for Notes mail server(Retention 4+1) and another for NT servers(Retention 2+1) and another for Sun Solaris (Retention 2+1).
The requirement given for data retention is current +2 for all clients and for Notes 4+1 All this works fine But when it comes to Weekly and monthly backup i face trouble. As per the policy we need to retain the weekly (Sunday ) backup for one month and Monthly Backup (last Sunday of the month) For an year. To archive this I'am archiving the all client data in to archive pool. This increases my TSM database size dramatically. and managing the tape volume is also not easy. Is there any better way of doing it?. (with out DRM). Can any of u suggest an better way ?. Regards O.Senthil System Administrator Ph: 2540888 Ext :2121
