Re: TSM and Linux
2007-02-27 03:08:44
Hello Mark,
we are currently using both - Linux and AIX as TSM-Server Platform
(5.3.4.2) . There is no difference in stability,
both are running well.
But handling disk storage (eg database volumes or diskpool volumes)
running with aix is a lot easier.
LVM coming with AIX is quite easier to handle. But if you have Linux
Guys with great skills on
this, I see no problem with Linux.
Next is the problem with tape drivers - we have a 3 tsm servers running
on SLES8 (SuSE/Novell)
and an IBM4560SLX Library, now we have to upgrade to SLES10 and IBM
can´t tell us
if there is!! a driver or existing drivers would work .. Now we have to
test this environment @IBM.
This a problem we´ve never seen on AIX and our 3584 library.
regards
Stefan

Morning all
Does anyone have any experiences good or bad running
Linux as a TSM Server? We are a reasonable size environment currently
running AIX as our server and Linux/Windows and Aix clients.
The question has been asked for various reasons to change
processors and flavour.
All feed back would be appreciated.
