Hi,

We are replacing our existing TSM server with a new one and I have a
question about storage pool configuration.

Currently our TSM server is running on the same RS6000 as our main Oracle
databases using a STK L700 tape silo connected directly to the RS6000.  The
TSM server also backs up another RS6000 running Oracle and a couple more
running Domino over a gigabit network.  The Oracle data and Domino database
data from these servers goes straight to tape whilst file-level data and
Domino transaction log data go via a disk storage pool.

We are now going to use a separate RS6000 server running TSM 5 with an IBM
3584 silo with 8 LTO drives.  This will be connected to the other servers
via the gigabit lan.

Would it be better to keep some of the data going straight to tape or would
I be better to use an intervening disk storage pool for all of the data and
then use multiple LTO drives to migrate to tape?

Thanks

Tim
