Re: Turning Encryption Off/On

I don't think you can have two devices classes (one with and one without encryption) sharing the same pool of scratch volumes (one logical library) using LTO hardware encryption. This is because the volume label on the tape is either written encrypted or it is not, I don't think the none

Hi Dave, Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 changed some significant architectural constructs. It is not a simple change like Exchange 2003 -- Exchange 2007 was. One thing to note is that Microsoft will NOT support legacy-style (streaming) backups with Exchange Server 2010. That means VSS backups

Currently there is no official TDP version available to the public. Contact your IBM rep and ask about the limited availability TDP. You will need to be running B/A client 6.1.3 for the TDP to work properly. JoeA From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager on behalf of

This is for TSM-managed encryption (the library is set to application-managed). You only need 1 set of scratch tapes. One library, two storage pools, two devclasses, one encrypted, one not. Same pool of scratch tapes. When an encrypted tape goes scratch and comes back from the vault, it can be

Any compressed/ encrypted data will not de-dupe well or if at all. (Compressed / Encrypted Data have unique signatures every time) In regards to client side compression, that feature tends to be of value on a small remote site or if you have a 10Mb lan. You can force the client compression off

Actually, the encryption isn't bad from a performance perspective. In our testing, enabling encryption only incurred a 5-10% perfromance penalty. The real issues come from the fact that encrypted data doesn't compress, so if you encrypt on the client without using client compression, your tape

Well, generally speaking with any Dedup product you don't want the nodes compressing the data. As we stand now, they don't, as the Tape Drive Hardware compression is much better, and it's easier on the node's processors, anyway. And, with a VTL/DL that does both, compression and Dedup you don't

All Just to chip in here. We have 3 DDR's (2 at remote sites and one in a main DC) and are seeing 4.4:1 compression. That's with a reasonable mix of data and no client side compression. Whilst dedupe isn't superb, but as we know it's generally lower with TSM anyway, a big advantage is DDR

The note Andy refers to (ie search idle wait 100) recommends using accounting log records to get accurate information. I agree fully. In building Servergraph, we tried many different ways to get session information, and the only one that was consistently accurate was the accounting log.
