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
