Hi *SM-ers!
We have just implemented an archiving server. We only want archives on
this TSM server, so we created policies without a backup copy group.
This however causes the BA GUI to see all files as excluded.
I checked the TSM website and found Technote 1209666
(http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=663&context=SSGSG7&q1=archi
ve+copygroup&uid=swg21209666&loc=en_US&cs=utf-8&lang=en) which verifies
this behavior. So, although we don't want the user to be able to backup
to this server, we have to create a backup copy group, which allows him
to make backups!
Is this really "works as designed"? This sounds more like bug to me,
right?
Kindest regards,
Eric van Loon
