From: "Gibney, Dave" : Run it a single purpose z/OS.e LPAR :) I wish I had this option. : : I run HSM on a fairly low priority class. When we're CPU tight I drop : it even further. : But, you are right, it runs all the time and recycle and tapecopy can : take hours or even days. And our DR is mostly hypothetical :(
HSM load is being pushed to SAP R3 LPAR(s) where the licensing is also advantageous. Recall response has high visibility, and is *enormously* impacted by the TMM traffic. As are all the other HSM functions. I've been pushing for a VTS solution for years.
