I have a vendor asking some application folks questions re: an upcoming data migration. Some I think I can answer, but I would love your input.
1. What is the best way to give the application owner a view of last night's backup? He only wanted last night's backup info, and understands that it is an incremental, so should I just send the output of 'q content vol-name-here' to a document and send it to him? If so, how can I determine what tape that data is on in primary storage? I'm assuming a select statement? 2. Can I make a copy of a tape from a primary storage, while keeping the original copy in the library? My gut says no, but they asked... 3. Does the vendor have to have a TSM client to read a tape with only TSM backup data on it? Your input would be extremely valuable to me, and of course, greatly appreciated. I apologize if these are rookie questions, but I'm in a befuddled funk right now. :-) God bless you!!!
