Yes there is ... Do a search on FCIP in the mailing list there should be
a couple posts.... Essentially you have a TSM Library manager at an
offsite location hooked to a Tape Library, then use server to server
communications and have Site A create its offsite copy to site b
etc.....
FYI - There's no Master / Media server concept, I know I may a bit
retentive here but its one of those things that just bugs, like the
Don't use the Hair Dryer in the Shower label....

Subject: [ADSM-L] Question: Is this possible with TSM?
Is it possible using multiple master servers (vaulting?) to make a
secondary backup in an alternate location?
Example: Assume you do cross-site backups between 2 sites.
siteA -> backup to -> siteB (has its own master) siteB -> backup to ->
siteA (has its own master)
If you have another site, call it siteC, can you do this with
vaulting/or some other way?
siteA -> backup to -> siteB (and also/or later copy to) -> siteC siteB
-> backup to -> siteA (and also/or later copy to) -> siteC
Keep in mind siteA,B,C each have their own master server.
What would be the best way to accomplish this? This would solve the
problem of a dual site failure.
I already asked this on the veritas-bu mailing list, there are
'workarounds' or ways to do this but not how I had envisioned it. Is
this possible with TSM?
Or is there a way to make TSM HA so you could have the same master
clustered across 3 different sites so if two went away there would be no
problems?
Justin.
