I know I have done this before for our DLT's but I can't seem to find
the magic scenario
for defining some 3490E drives.
I am ultimately trying to do a "backup db" to tape. We use our DLT's
for backup, archive
and space migration. Thought I would use our 3490E's for the DB
backup.
Questions:
1) For database dumps, do you have to have a storage pool defined with
a devclass,
or just volumes labelled and defined on the backup db command??
2) I am having trouble defining the 3490 device for ADSM use. It was
already defined
to AIX, so I changed it from available to 'defined' in AIX. Then
trying to define under
"ADSM devices" but it fails with a message -
saying 0514-051 Device to be configured does not match the
physical
device at the specified connection
location
the device is at 00 05 01 3,0 and is /dev/rmt2 to aix, and I assume
it would become
/dev/mt2 to ADSM (we already have a mt0, and mt1 for the DLT drives)
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong ???
Thanks,
