Going through testing of converting/upgrading a server and have a few questions as well as seeing some oddities. Doing this on a test server since we will be moving everything to a new machine for the actual move. This is what I did (following the instruction in the book): 1. Installed server

AIX vs Linux 2012

2012-04-20 Thread Shawn Drew
I know this has been discussed in various forms over the years, but I'm specifically wondering about the current state of hardware I have a long history with TSM on AIX. It's stable, familiar and an I/O powerhouse. Our Unix admins also favor AIX for serious, heavy-duty workloads. We are looking

When comparing systems, I would use benchmarks suitable for transactional DB systems. Power7 systems have 4 VPUs per CPU, which really makes a difference. Also look at how many I/O cards you will need, etc. A big factor is what you're most comfortable with. At 12:34 PM 4/20/2012, Shawn Drew

I have to agree with Paul. If you don't mind supporting TSM on Linux then try it. I can tell you this, alot will depend on how well IBM will support TSM on Linux. You didn't mention how many TSM instances you are supporting on AIX. If you want to compare notes send me a note offline. On Fri,

Re: Is IBM dropping TSM client support for Solaris x86?

2012-04-20 Thread Zoltan Forray/AC/VCU
IBM seems to be distancing itself from Solaris in general. We run Domino on Solaris Sparc (just starting to move to Google for Education - yea!) and with 6.3 they did not update the TDP and said 5.5 was the end of the line for the Solaris TDP. 6.3 for Domino only supports Linux, AIX and Windows.

There was an embarassingly bad TCP window size scaling bug in RHEL 5.4. It wasn't acknowledged in any way by RedHat, until late in 5.5, and wasn't fixed until 5.6. I faced long and continued skepticism from the network people, and the Linux admins, that such a bug could exist in a RHEL

Inclexcl File Syntax Question

2012-04-20 Thread Ballenger, Craig
All, On systems where we're running Oracle database instances, we generally have four filesystems dedicated to Oracle named: /u01, /u02, /u03, /u04. Since these are used by a DBMS, we don't want to back them up with TSM using normal filesystem backups as those backups would be useless.
