Good morning all...
I've been really reading up on all the container storage pools over the last couple of days and think I have it all figured out in my head lol and wanted to throw my theory out there publicly and see if I'm anywhere near accurate.
I'm running 714 on RHEL 7 on physical hardware (will upgade to 715 today) with with disk and tape storage pools. I'm thinking I should be able to do something like the following:
1) Build a new virtual TSM server inside my on-site virtual infrastructure with enough disk to hold everything.
2) Setup a cloud account with Softlayer and use protect stgpool and replicate node to copy all the data outside the building.
This would allow me to eliminate a physical server and a tape library but still allow for local restores if necessary and give the same level of disaster protection in the event of a complete obliteration, correct?
Am I thinking of this accurately, missing anything, way off???
Thanks all!
