Does anyone know whether data can be read from tapes that are expired and brought back from off-site? Is there any documentation stating how this data is protected? Brenda Collins Storage Management IBM Global Services Phone: 763-390-5627 E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Tape performance

The test to move data from the operating system was just a 10GB file, although it was all zero's. The tape performance on TSM was achieved by doing a disk to tape. We took the ratings from doing a backup storagepool to tape. We tried it with storagepools that had filesystems and databases, the

Check your activity log during the time period that the error occurs. You may find that there were not enough tape drives available for what you were requesting in the backup or possibly there was an I/O error on the tape. Brenda Borja Borrego

Re: TSM database maximum recommended size

I was told by a Tivoli Engineer at one time that you shouldn't let them grow much over 50 gb. Primarily, because of the reason you state here about having the capability to restore. In a disaster, you need to take into consideration how much time it is going to take you to restore that database
