Re: storage pool raid 1?

Many shops have the storage pools built on storage where non-raid is not an
option.
It would be nice to see some storage pool volume sizing reccomendations
that don't assume everyone is on 9GB SSA JBOD.
Seeing TSM become SFS and SVC aware would be nice as well.

"Me too."
Additionally, there are increasing amounts of data stored on TSM which are
not
even "just backups".
If you use the DB2 archive log transfer facilities, then between the time
you
run the log upload and the next time you complete a stgpool backup, your
DASD
has the only copy of that data in the universe. With a RAID-5 in place and
a
hot spare, I don't feel too much angst about this, but unmirrored would
squick
me for sure.
We also use TSM as a data store for our content management application;
That
DASD is in fact the primary data. must must MUST be raided.
