Antwort: General question about use of policysets

2014-02-02 Thread Markus Engelhard
Hi Richard, some very long time ago, we hit the need to use two policy sets in environments with two physical tape robots (old 3583, remember them?), small disk pools and large backups. Backups would run up to 24 hours to two tape devices, not enough drives to allocate for synchronous writes for

We have the minimal STANDARD (writable) and ACTIVE policysets for our domains. Domains are assigned by billable unit (lab, institute, cost center, etc.). I've never come up with a purpose for multiple policysets, so I also would be curious to know if one exists. On Fri, Jan 31, 2014 at

Hi Wanda, It's an interesting question, and I hope you get many interesting answers. We only have one policyset per domain, partly from a lack of understandng of what's possible, and the other part from a lack of imagination. We try not to create a smorgasbord of TSM backup types and cycles.

I’ve never been at a site that used more than one policy set. But if I had been at either of two sites that had to implement infinite “legal holds” when that order actually came, I’d have used a new policy set to do exactly that. That’s the only situation in which I’d use that option. Nick
