Greetings,
We are trying to evaluate the possibility of introducing deduplication into
our backups. Our initial deployment will be based on quadstor vtl
http://www.quadstor.com/virtual-tape-library.html but at the same time we are
trying to understand the TSM deduplication feature. Could anyone tell me what
the following means from the TSM deduplication FAQ
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/Tivoli%20Storage%20Manager/page/Deduplication%20FAQ
--
(Q4) When should I consider using TSM deduplication?
Consider using TSM deduplication when the following conditions apply:
You plan to use a disk-only backup solution (your primary backup
storage pool will remain on disk).
--
I understand why the backup pool should be a disk pool, but the "disk-only
backup solution" confuses me. Does tape migration cause any effects ?
TSM Server version v6.3.3
