Hi TSMers, I have some questions about Collocation Groups Reclamation and restore.
First, my environment I have a Tape STGpool with 3 Collocation Groups and 10 nodes per Group. 1.- When one volume is reclaimed in this pool. How TSM does the reclamation? moving files from one node from Volume to Scratch one or TSM moves all nodes in the CG at the same time without distinction ? 2.- When TSM restores files from these tapes. Does it restore all files in a sequential way ?. I mean TSM is reading the tape from the beginning and if it finds files to belong to this TSM Client from different directories it restores independently of the directory which this files belong or TSM server prepares a list of file and it is looking one per one in the tape... or Which is the procedure ? 3.- In case of migration, if we don't have CG TSM migrates files per node. What happens if we have CG ? 4.- In case we have a lanfree backup with 4 parallel sessions , is CG suitable for this TSM Clients ? 5.- Last question, in order to restore the client node. Are there differences between these procedure and multiplexing competitors ones ? ... Thanks, Fran
