Hello Everyone,
I have implemented a 3-way-ndmp backup solution with NetApp v-6080, TSM 5.5 and 3584 tape library. I have 2 disk storage pools dedicated for NDMP, one for TOC and other for data; both with data format native. The maxsize is set to no limit.
When I run ndmp backups using backup node, the backup do not go to disk pool but go straight to the tapes which is defined as next storage pool for the disk storage pool, the TOC still goes to disk. Any idea why this happens? Only some very small filespaces (2-5 MB in size) seem to go to disk.
After backup storage pool runs, the image storage pool name in "query nasbackup" changes to copy pool name. Does it mean that onsite copy is gone and I am left with only DR copy?
I was reading about problem some people are facing with backing up same NAS volume to different management classes. I have the same requirement here, i.e. weekly fulls to be retained for 2 weeks, daily diffs for 7 days, and one annual full to be retained forever (I know, but that's what 'they' want). I have created 3 different management classes; but does TSM bind all data for a filespace to the management class last used for it and thus changing the retention for everything backed up in past?
Thanks in advance for your help.
