Hi *SM-ers! We are about to implement a second (fallback) IT center on another location. The idea is to create a hot standby environment for TSM. We are already using a separate copypool which will b
Sure it does. In fact, you can do exactly as you describe; biggest impact will be that the copy stgpools are usually (very) poorly optimized for client restore. Think of it carefully: Two TSM server
If you intend to be able to continue normal operations at your recovery site, you will need sufficient capacity to run all your primary work, and your copies too. This means your recovery library wi

Hi Eric, In a disaster, you mark your primary pool volumes "destroyed", but they are still in your DB, along with all the appropriate file entries. If you start backing up again, TSM just continues d

Hi Allen! Thank you very much for your reaction! Correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I know, you cannot backup to a copypool. Am I wrong here? I cannot wait for the restore storagepool to finish..

Hello Eric, You will only require scratch tapes in the primary pool or that TSM can move into the primary pool to do backups. TSM really does not think of working with tape-sets, it thinks of working

No, but that's not a problem. Suppose you have a disaster. At the DR site, you have all your copypool data, but all your primary pool volumes are marked DESTROYED. At that point, you just insert some
No, you can't back up to a copy pool. But you don't care. You've got your series of primary stgpools, which are populated with volumes that are "unavailable". You've got your copy stgpools, which ho

Allen, Thanks for the kind words, but it's not me, it's the Fibre. One of my sites is buying a VTL to replace the primary pool. But putting the VTL OFFSITE, and keeping the 3584 for the Copypool onsi
