Hello,

 

I have an interesting issue where when trying to startup TSM, the EMC
storage path's change status to dead.

 

Environment:

 

TSM sever using purely for IBM Commonstore for SAP archiving.

 

TSM database & log files on EMC Clarion Storage - mirrored across LUN'
on EMC.

 

2TB of disk pools spread across 4 X 500GB LUN's on EMC storage.

 

My question: Is there a way a can tell TSM not to "VARY-ON" my disk pool
volumes during startup so that I can vary-on them manually once TSM is
up? I think that TSM is trying so hard to vary-on these volumes that the
EMC path timeout.

 

Has anyone experienced something similar?

 

Regards,
