We are expanding our storage by 1.5TB…we have an option to make some of
this 3390-27 volumes…
We are looking for a best fit allocation for these volumes:
JES2, public, storage, paging, ML1?
Our concerns include duration of a full volume backup, device
response time, contention.
Our DBAs say they will not use for our IDMS databases…
Suggestions? Experiences? Advice?
We now that we are all JES2 1.7 and above we will be beginning a process
to convert our 71 3390-3 spool volumes to 8 3390-27's in the near
future. Since I'm not the storage person here I don't know further
details about how we use the other 3390-27 volumes we have however.
