Is a direct fiber attached library defined differently than a direct SCSI attached library? No. Just use the address that the host operating system assigns it. Will the fiber attached have an address similar to a SCSI attached (i.e.. device=lb0.0.0.0)? ITSM Ver, 5.2.6 on Win2K platform.

In a cached disk subsystem, the write overhead of RAID 5 can be negated. Hence the reason if a cache battery dies, write through cache mode is enabled, as cache may not be able to be destaged in the event of a power failure- this will have a massive effect on write wait time on the host.

Re: Tape Compression

2006-01-16 Thread Prather, Wanda
Won't hurt a thing if you turn it on. TSM doesn't know it's happening, so it has no impact on TSM operations. IF you have compression turned on at your TSM client, the data is already compressed, and the tape drive probably won't be able to compress it any more. In fact, there are SOME cases

Re: tape encryption and TSM

2006-01-16 Thread Prather, Wanda
You can turn on compression in the TSM clients (at TSM 5.3 clients you can use AES128 encryption, and with the TSM 5.3 server you can turn on encryption for TDP clients). But you must be VERY VERY CAREFUL with key management; if you lose the keys, you're toast and will NEVER get the data back.

TSM Upgrade from 5.1.6 to 5.3

Hi Everybody, I'm currently planning an upgrade of TSM 5.1.6 on AIX 4.3.3 to TSM 5.3 on AIX 5.2 . Since this will be an inplace upgrade on the same server, is TSM 5.1.6 supported on AIX 5.2 ? I know that IBM does not support 5.1.6 , but I have a very tight upgrade window and need to do the

TSM Server Stop Working

Hello TSM Users, My TSM server recently stops working and my guess is hardware issue because I am getting SCSI error messages. It is possible that it can be software issue as well but not sure. Your help greatly appreciated. LTO Library: IBM 4560SLX 2 Drives Server: IBM 345 xSeries

This is kind of a bare metal recovery, a feature not implemented by TSM without third party components. You may try to create a live CD with TSM BA client embedded (or plug hard disk on another machine), mount the partition you want to restore of the original hard disk, and restore to the mount
