Subject: W2K questions from one who has 4 yrs. experience with TSM on AIX
I have 4 years experience running an AIX 3570 2-drive, 20-slot library.
I have the task of converting our LAN network of 30+ servers from running
Veritas Backup Exec to running TSM v5.1.
Thus, going to W2K TSM is "familiar", yet "different", with the W2K/NT OS.
Environ:
W2K, TSM server 5.1.6.3,
Win clients 5.1.5.15,
Back up ~ 10 W2K & NT servers each weekday,
TSM server is P3 500 w/384 MB memory,
14 HR backup window
100 MB/s switched LAN network
HP 718 autoloader, w/one-Drive, 8-slot DLT library
no DISKPOOL, backup to DLT tape directly (planning on a diskpool "real
soon").
W2K questions:
1) Do I need more memory in TSM server (only has 384 MB)?
Would more memory be used for faster operations?
2) Is there a set of standard include/exclude statements for W2K and NT OS
clients?
If so, please give reference to I can find them.
I have looked in the adsm.org archives and found some examples, but don't
know if there are an "official set" from Tivoli.
3) I am dealing with setting up a tape library w/only 1 tape drive.
I have read the W2K 5.1 Admin Guide on this subject and the adsm.org
emails on such.
Any guidance on running a single tape drive library is appreciated.
I have to use this single-drive autoloader for now, until we get an
increase in our IT budget for a new 2-3 drive library or such!
