Tape question
2002-01-14 16:40:56
One of my users has a special project to backup 800 Gb for a few days and
then throw it away. Since we've just cleaned the test machine to put up
V4R2, I agreed and let him have the test machine for 3-4 days. The machine
is configured just like production, in particular the DEVC=TAPE:
Device Class Name: TAPE
Device Access Strategy: Sequential
Storage Pool Count: 7
Device Type: 3590
Format: DRIVE
Est/Max Capacity (MB):
Mount Limit: DRIVES
Mount Wait (min): 60
Mount Retention (min): 2
Label Prefix: ADSM
Library: TSMLIB
The drive is a 3590-E, which experience shows will hold 50-100 Gb,
depending on compression. I put 30 new cartridges into the 3494, whcih
should have sufficed him with room to spare.
However, what I'm seeing consistently is a tape being marked full at
18.5-18.8 Gb. It appears that all the files are pretty much the same size,
and there are lots of them. But what can I do to get more onto a volume???
