Hi, I'm with an issue with my backup from Tivoli DB: Actually my backup DB is performed on tapes DAT DDS4. But I want that my DB backup is performed on a storage, instead of the driver (The company is going to be on collective vacation and there will be nobody to put the tapes on the drive). Reading along, I found out that I point the destination of my backup, on the option "devclass", so I want to know the following things:
*Note: this is my script: BACKUP DB TYPE=FULL DEVCLASS=DEV-DDS WAIT=YES
1- I must create a new device, where I'm going to send my backup, right? How do I proceed to create this devclass as a File and point it to a folder on another server?
(For example: My backup server is the srv-tivoli and I want to make the backup on the storage.
2- Do I need to create an extra storage pool or library name? (Please see the command below)
I saw the following command:
define devclass <device_class_name> library=<lib name> devtype=file format=drive
Edit: I want to backup Tivoli database to a storage, not to a fileserver.
Thanks. This forum has been very useful for me. I'm still a rookie on TSM, but already have lots of things I must fix on it, because the old administrator was fired and now I have nobody to help me with it.
Thanks once again.
