We will soon be implementing TSM on AIX with PowerHA. The environment will consistest of two servers - one library manager and one client - plus a number of LAN-free clients. There is not much out there in terms of documentation, and I am mostly concerned with what happens to drives and tapes that are in use during a fail-over.
I went through the redbook for TSM 5.5 & HACMP, and it looks like TSM should clean itself up on start-up. The problem is that I've seldom experienced this 'clean-up' in real life! There's usually a lot of manual reseting of drives and volumes after a non-graceful shut-down.
So, anyone using this configuration in real life? Any caveats or recommendations?
