I've got customers using both LTO4 and 3592 (now called TS1120) drives.
Both sets of customers are happy.
The TS1120 drives are fabulous - they are fast and have a really high duty
cycle. 3592 cartrdiges are more durable than the LTO4's.
The LTO4 drives are also excellent for the price.

In 99% of cases, no special agent is necessary because the mysql data bases

I have the same issue, AIX 5.3 TSM 5.4.1.0, TS3500, LTO2 but only on a

Some temp errors show in the AIX error log, but only for this drive. The

I'm disappointed with a lack of a real TSM MySQL client; I think the
arguments that MySQL is a mediocre database are long in the tooth, and
there are a lot of real commercial operations that are backed by
MySQL. No it's not Oracle. But it is sufficient for 80% of
applications.

I have both technology. I was using both 3590 and 3592 in a 3494
library and have since move to a 3584 library with 3592 and LTO4.
Performance wise the LTO4 are a screamer in backup while the 3592
definitely are more rugged. 800 GB does not sound like a lot of data
per night.

Yes, your usage scenarios look correct to me (and yes, I agree the book

Have you looked into ndmp from the filer to your tsm server? If you

Yes, files larger than 2 GB are backed up individually when you have subfile
backup turned on.
However (don't shoot the messenger here), I'll save you some time and
confusion by pointing out that you aren't going to get any significant
benefit from implementing subfile on a large file server.
