Re: [Veritas-bu] Anyone using media sharing in 6.5?

I was just looking over this last night,
and was surprised it's not on by default....
I also ran across a statement in the
guide that said you should use caution with ACS libraries, but I could
not tell why you needed to be cautious. Anyone have an idea?

| [Veritas-bu] Anyone using media sharing
in 6.5? |
|
I'm finding that I'm vaulting quite a few partially
used tapes, because
each tape can only be written by the server that owns it, and I have 7
media servers. The new media sharing option in 6.5 looks like it
would
help to optimize the tape usage, but I'm wondering if anyone has tried
this out yet? I checked the knowledge base and there are several
bugs
related to media sharing that are fixed in 6.5.2 (which I am using).
Just a bit nervous to enable this in production. I'm also wondering
where a shared tape is mounted for a restore...is it based on the server
that the image was written on, since there would be no overall tape
"owner"? We use alternate restore server options quite
frequently, so I
don't want to break that.
Any comments on media sharing would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bryan
