Re: HSM + GPFS/HACMP
HiIf you mean running ordinary TSM HSM on a aix machine, all RS/6000 and P-Series servers supports this.However, I don't know the limitations when running HSM on a HACMP cluster environment.We're running HSM on two standalone clients, one P-Series 640, and one P-Series 610. This works very well.Best RegardsDaniel Sparrman---Daniel SparrmanExist i Stockholm ABBergkllavgen 31D192 79 SOLLENTUNAVxel: 08 - 754 98 00Mobil: 070 - 399 27 51Jan-Frode Myklebust [EMAIL PROTECTED]Sent by: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]2002-03-08 20:49Please respond to ADSM: Dist Stor Manager To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: bcc: Subject: HSM + GPFS/HACMP We had planned to run HSM on our GPFS/SSA/HACMP cluster of 3 p690s, andsuddenly IBM discovered that HSM is only supported on SP-nodes.We tried installing it, but the installation scripts bombed outbecause it couldn't find some SP tools.

Re: HSM + GPFS/HACMP
jf , We run HSM on a 53 SP node, 3 attached S7A(s) and 2 S80(s), 2 6H1(s) environment with GPFS .. + HACMP... The code is different between GPFS JFS ... If and when you decide what you want to do, I will give you this advice, when you are configuring HSM give your clients/nodes the hsm suffix .. It can get to be really annoying when you see 3 or 4 sessions running and your thinking backups aren't done yet?? Gabriel C.

Re: HSM + GPFS/HACMP
Hi I also use prefixes, even for TDP:s such as NODENAME_SQL and so on. This to keep track of filespaces, which nodes that are running backups and so on. Also use _HSM for prefix for HSM clients.

Re: HSM + GPFS/HACMP
We run HSM on a 53 SP node, 3 attached S7A(s) and 2 S80(s), 2 6H1(s) environment with GPFS .. + HACMP... The special thing about our configuration is that we run GPFS with HACMP instead of GPFS with PSSP. The installation scripts for the HSM client for GPFS expects some PSSP tools (and maybe other PSSP services) which isn't installed in our environment. I suspect you run GPFS with PSSP? IBM is saying HSM with GPFS/HACMP should be available in 6 months time.. If and when you decide what you want to do, I will give you this advice, when you are configuring HSM give your clients/nodes the hsm suffix .. I would appreciate your advice even though we haven't decided wat to do yet (install PSSP, wait 6 months, ???). -jf

Yep, PSSP 3.2 Gabriel C.

Re: HSM + GPFS/HACMP
You can install PSSP 3.4 for Regatta. Regards, Anderson We had planned to run HSM on our GPFS/SSA/HACMP cluster of 3 p690s, and suddenly IBM discovered that HSM is only supported on SP-nodes. We tried installing it, but the installation scripts bombed out because it couldn't find some SP tools. I'm suspecting that it's only a matter of getting the software installed/configured correctly, and then it should work, but this might be because I don't really know how SP systems differ from the p690 here. Does anybody have any insight to share? -jf
Re: HSM + GPFS/HACMP
I believe that there are two versions of HSM client - for JFS and GPFS...and the one for GPFS really requires SP because it uses common SP database (SDR?) to store information on HSM-enabled filesystems...so no such database - HSM won't work at all. --- Jan-Frode Myklebust [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: We had planned to run HSM on our GPFS/SSA/HACMP cluster of 3 p690s, and suddenly IBM discovered that HSM is only supported on SP-nodes.
