Oh, I would love to use CentOS, but unfortunately the Tivoli backup
system is only supported when running on either RHEL or SuSe. :-(

The major goal of CentOS is binary compatibility with RHEL.

I'm sure it lacks certification, but that's not the same as "not working." If it runs on RHEL there's every likelihood it will also work on CentOS.

If there's an actual problem, and IBM/Tivoli tries to give you the runaround, you might well muse in their hearing, that perhaps Amanda or Bacula will do the job. Certainly, both are in use on IBM's zSeries systems, so they're capable of fairly serious work.

Er, I think if you ask you will find it's okay on Solaris: much IBM software is. Refine this: http://www.google.com/search?q=solaris+tivoli&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=mozilla&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:unofficial



Thanks for the answers! It seems that I either have to do some serious
testing, or find some solution which uses ext3 and a split up storage
space.

Cheers,
Joe

Seems to me if you're going to use part of CentOS or SL for this, you
might as well build it entirely from CentOS or SL.

Or even Solaris/OpenSolaris and zfs which, I understand, does big files
rather well.
