We are using a similar backup scheme to TSM, and we're forced to use old AIX backup servers since the TSM API hasn't been ported to OpenAFS/Linux.
I'm in the early stages of redesigning the backup system. We have SAN attached disk available, and my plan is to do a butc backup to the SAN disk, and use that as my primary means of restore. The incremental scheme will last about 13-14 weeks, a semester's worth. That directory structure will then be sent to the TSM tape library, and we'll move back to level 0 for butc. I think this setup will give us speed and security. I'd appreciate your thoughts on this. On Tue, 2005-09-27 at 08:42, Tony Derry wrote: > Is anyone using Tivoli Storage Manager with AFS filesystems?
