Hello,
I am writing a script to read data from a TSM HSM server. I am using scp command to the AIX server to copy the files. I know where the each file resides and have sorted the files in tape order. I wanted to further optimize the reading by arranging my requests in the order the files are stored on the tape. Is it possible to get the position of a file on a given tape?
I am sure it is kept somewhere in the TSM database, but I am no expert in TSM. When I did such a migration from SUN SAM-FS, I did use the file position on the tape to organize my requests.
