Hi, may someone tells - is any differences between TSM HSM (for Windows) and TSM for Space Management (for Unix) in work with files/filesystems?
From the perspective of the filesystem, and the user there is very little difference. Oddly, from the perspective of TSm there is a huge difference. Where HSM for Unix uses the HSM interface to TSM, all windows HSM clients use TSM archiving.
Well, may I test how application interact with HSM stub-files in windows environment and interpret that in Unix that will be work (approximately :) )same?
HSM for Unix (IMHO) allows for a far more flexible configuration, though it is a bit more complex. Since Windows and Unix are completely different beasts (though, with some effort even windows can become posix compliant), one can only say that the workings of the OS and also the HSM client is roughly the same, in a very high-level conceptual way. I would not go as far as to say that understanding of the windows HSM client would benefit you in any way if you ever had to configure HSM on Unix or vice-versa.
