-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi All
Having managed to finally get my customers to set up some new infrastructure with V6 TSM servers, I'm now going through the process of upgrading clients. The 5.5 TDP for SQL has long been in use, is well understood and is stable. The new TDP version 7.1 that we are moving to now has the option of VSS or legacy backups. I understand that VSS backups are essential if we need to offload backup processing or use hardware snapshots, or multiple local VSS restore points in the one day, but most of our SQL apps are small backup-in-full-once-a-day affairs. I feel inclined to continue to use legacy backup for these, mostly because of the set-up overhead and complexity for VSS. What is best practice? If you use both legacy and VSS, what criteria inform that choice? Does TSM for VE significantly affect the equation? (I don't have that yet, but the writing is on the wall) Regards Steve.
