Thanks for the advice, but we would like to put the onsite backup on
disk for fast restore purpose. We had a SAN melt down last year and it
took 3 days to restore 70 VM servers. So we would really like to put the
backup on disk. In addition, how much GB you would recommend for a FILE
volume? I read some forum, someone recommend 25GB and some recommend
50GB.
Thanks
Rodney

If it is only Exchange data that is kept forever, you should just put
the exchange data in its own pool and keep checking them out for onsite
storage.
Since they don't expire, you should have to worry about reclamation.
You can leave all the other stuff in the library and let it reclaim as
needed.

Shawn

[ADSM-L] File Device class question
Hi,
Our 3584 library, it holds 270 tapes, is full because we keep our
exchange backup forever. I had to checkout some tapes for onsite
storage. However, we come to the point that it makes reclamation very
inefficiency since tapes are not in the library. I am thinking to create
a new Domain and move some nodes to the new domain. Create a FILE class
pool on disk for onsite restore that associate with the new domain. For
now on the current domain, our primary pool is on tapes. A copy tape
pool is send to offsite for DR.
My question is should I use the current copy tape pool or create a new
copy tape pool bind to the new domain. In addition, any suggest solution
for a situation that I have now? I am sorry I am new to TSM, I hope I
explain well the situation we have now.
Thanks
Rodney
