My company is implementing a new Filenet document archiving system on AIX.
The problem this is going to give is that it stores the data in an Oracle
database and this is stored on one large raw logical volume. This is going
to start at 200GB and will grow to 2 TB. Even at 200 GB its going to be

the number of scratches reaches a comfortable minimum, and
only then start reclamation. I prefer to let attrition empty tapes

I did the q vol status=pending and it has the same tapes. They are pending.
I had forgotten that the tapes stay in the pending status for three days.

That sounds like an excellent idea. At the moment we are running short on
tapes until we get a new batch in.
Do you know of an _easy_ way to tell just how many scratch tapes we have?
We are using select statements using the info in the volumes table. The
problem is the tapes only show in
Hi all,
Recently, I migrated our TSM server from an RS/6000 H50 to an H80. During this
process, my TSM database changed from 5 - 9.1 GB SSA drives to 3 - 18 GB SSA
drives. (Acutally, 10 - 9.1's and 6 - 18's utilizing TSM mirroring).
In the old config. I had used raw volumes, as recommended by

For 3494's, you can use the mtilb command to count scratch tapes, or insert

In an environment with two ADSM 3.1 servers migrating to a single TSM 4.1

I have a script that counts scratches- my 3494 is shared betweeen two tsm
instances, so I use
a table of category codes to sort out private/scratch for each tsm instance.
This, of course, is
from the library/category point of view, which may not necessarily balance 100%
to TSM's!

Hi,
I have the following alias in my .profile to provide scratch tape numbers. It's
pretty simple (but it avoids the select commands that sometimes use lots of

Has anyone tried raw vs. AIX jfs for TSM DB performance?
Joseph - This has historically been discussed on the List. The Tivoli
manuals advise against the use of raw logical volumes, but you
can certainly do so if you want. Overall, performance is pretty much a
"wash".

Do you store the backupset on some type of independent media so that you
