1. DB2 backups are API backups. Generate backupset will not work.

Noone said anything about wanting to be able to restore. The stated
requirement was to satisfy the auditors by making a copy of the backup.

Trying to get ATL library sharing working between two TSM AIX servers.
I think I finally got the definitions correct..at least they seem to
function.
However, I can't get the library client (capella) to use the drives. Every
time it does, I get these errors in the activity log:

Hi,
Can be, but don't have to be the same... In the past I saw some machines
with different device names for the same devices and it worked well with
ITSM (on Windows).

We've tested both and didn't see a significant difference in
performance. We had the IBM drives in a 3584 and the HP drives in a
L700, both fiber drives. The tests were against the same servers, the
same data.

When you define the PATHs on the TSM server for the storage agent on the client node,
the device= is the name of the tape drive on the client, not on the server. You need
to match the drive name on the TSM server to the correct device name on the client
node, then use that in the DEFINE PATH.
Well, in this case, it isn't, sortof...
I don't have *ANY* path statements on the client, that refer to these
drives. All that is defined on the client is the SHARED LIBRARY. This is
another TSM server, not just a storage agent.
The path statements on the library manager are duplicated for
make sure that /dev/rmt1 on source server is the same drive as /dev/rmt1 on
the client server
We discovered that they didn't always come in the same. It sound like the
server to server communications is working fine.

We are going through two IBM2109 switches, with each drive attached to both
switches for failover purposes. You still need to add the drives to the
appropriate zones using the wwn's. I'm not really aware of any good
documentation that covers this, but if you find something please pass it over.
I am using the ADIC Scalar 1000 with LTO-1 drives. It has been a great

I am comfortable with ADIC from years of using their products and also

Hi Farren,
