Hi *SM-ers!
We are forced to downgrade our server level on our new TSM Server
environment because the hardware we are about to use (EMC DL700) is not 5.3
certified.
We are already using several 5.3.0 clients, so in the new environment we
will backup to a 5.2.4.0 server (on AIX) with 5.3.0.0
Eric,
We use TSM 5.3 clients on several of our Windows clients to back-up to a
TSM 5.2.4.4 server on AIX without problems.
Richard.

Hi Richard!
That's not what I asked. I know it works, but I would like to know whether
it is supported.

Hi Eric,
In response to your query is 5,2 server with 5,3 clients supported.
This is a general answer because we are not yet on 5.3
IBM has always stated with TSM that one level down is supported and I have
seen nothing to contradict this.
It would make it very difficult to upgrade if this was

Hi Brian,
I wish I had a magic formula to tell you what to do, but there is none.
My suggestion is to create a raid5 raidset for the db/log, put your db/log
onto it and run an expiration and db backup to see if you get the
performance you need.
If it's not good enough, then blow away the

Has anyone heard when TSM will support Solaris 10?

If you've got enough disks for it you also might want to think about a RAID 0+1
for the DB/Log volumes, as this would give much better write performance than
RAID5.

I really would like to use RAID 0+1, unfortunately this would waste
too much of the precious space I'm needing for primary pools.
Richard's idea seems to be the right one : I'll try running some
performance tests (expiration, db backup) on several possible settings
and opt for the

At the recent EMC conference at a session about Clariions, they indicated
several things about Clariions that I thought I would share. From my

only/mostly use just one copy for reads. It's not as smart as a

This is what I call helpfull information ! It confirms what I read in

Your command syntax asks TSM to expire things called

Why is my AIX TSM server lying about the slot count in my 3583 Library ?
When I check the 3583 via the panel, it says there are 3-free slots.
TSM refuses to check any more tapes into this library, saying it is full !
Yes, I have done an audit of the library (barcodes)...numerous times !
All,
First time poster, fairly new to the whole thing, so help much appreciated.
We've got a TSM server on which we've just upgraded the disk array, from 1TB
to 2TB. It also has a Spectralogic Treefrog unit with two AIT2 drives and a
15-slot robot.
