Hi All,



                I am trying to find Official IBM documentation that
explicitly answers the following questions:



1)      How many TSM instances can be run per Linux Blade?   ( I have been
told that there is a limit of one instance per Blade, but I don't see this
anywhere in the TSM 6.2 Server documentation)

2)      Is there a limit to the number of files the a TSM client can back
up?  ( I have found an unofficial document that specifies that TSM's HSM
product can handle about 100 Million files, but again I can't seem to locate
it in IBM's HSM documentation)

3)      Lastly, with regard to TSM's underlying DB2 datbase, are there
significant issues with memory management?   (I have checked the DB2 APARS
up to DB2 version 9.8 and there seem to be a number of fixes for things such
as memory leaks, but I do not know how many of those apply to TSM and how
many are from general DB2 usage)



Thanks in advance!
