Hi Mario,
I agree with everyone else. Try to keep the TSM Server on another box then the 
Oracle machines.
You can easy get away with a cheap Linux or Windows box that can take care of 
the TSM Server.

Thanks
Christian

Mario,
You may consider the implication of a future upgrade to TSM V6 which is
running DB2.  Do you really think that Oracle and DB2 will co-exist on
the same box?

We've been running for many years with an Oracle / TSM / AIX
configuration like the one  you mention.  We put the TSM server on one
AIX node and the TSM client on the other AIX node.  Works fast and
reliably and TSM never put much load on the server processor nor did it
ever interfere with any Oracle processes or database disk operations
even with both the TSM database, logs and storage pools in the same raid
array as the Oracle DBs.
This configuration backups up about 700Gbytes a night from the Oracle
10G databases, both hot and cold user managed backups, in addition to
another 100 MS servers.

Hi all,

I have the following scenario:

             * 2 p520 RISC machines running AIX and connected in cluster
(not hacmp). Both have Oracle 10G.
             * a DS 4000 storage connected

             * a LTO3 tape unit connectedThis is a very small TSM
installation, only the machines above will have the TSM client installed
initially. Where is the best place to have the TSM Server installed? On
both nodes, on one of the nodes or on a different machine?

Also, should the TSM client be installed on both nodes?

Any help is appreciated.

Mario
