I am getting ready to reorganize my TSM on OS/390 configuration and was
wondering how everyone else does it ?

For those folks running TSM on OS/390:

1.   Do you MIRROR your DB ? If not, why not ?

     No. We are comfortable with the reliability of the mainframe DASD
     and it's own recovery.

2.   Is/was there a noticable difference/benefit when you first MIRRORed
the DB ?  Or did you start out MIRRORed ?

     Never mirrored.

3.   How big is your DB ?  Mine is currently 17GB and complaining about
being over 85% utilized

     Our TSM DB is 37.5gb 73% utilization.

4.   What if any pitfalls/negatives to MIRRORed DBs ?

     I can't answer that question as we were never mirrored.
