Yours has a bit more detail. We do DR plan and backup of config files
and DB at thesame time, back them up to 8MM outside the TSM environment,
and take that 8MM offsite, leaving a copy of the DB backup on disk.

> Migration from disk to cartridge

storage pool tape library and copypool tape library are in different
locations. So cartridges no longer handled manually

        Ours is slightly different,

        set migration thresholds to just less than the size of a tape,
so
migration will go on during backups.

        Backups (we have enough disk to hold 3-4 days of incrementals,
so we
do cache files)
        creation of copypool volumes (from disk pools first, then tape
pool)
        backup devconfig and volhist
        purge volhist of old stuff
        db backup
        make DR plan file
        eject copypool tape volumes and db backup, put dr plan on
offsite
media to go with the db backup.
        Expiration (which triggers reclamation)

        from time to time, I have also done a 'backup diskpool
copypool
wait=y', and 'backup tapepool copypool'
        before backups to make sure everything that can be is already
on a
copypool tape.  the copypool tape
        is appended to at the end of the nightly process.

        my morning script follow:

        /* Daily Backup Activities */
        /* executed by the dailybackup command schedule */
        backup stg diskdata copypool wait=y
        backup stg diskdirs copypool wait=y
        backup stg tapedata copypool wait=y
        move drmedia * wherest=courier wait=y
        backup devconfig
        backup volhist
        delete volhist type=all todate=today-62
        delete volhist type=db todate=today-2
        /* backup db, scratch=yes, type=full, wait=yes */
        backup db dev=ltoclass1 scratch=y type=full wait=y
        prepare wait=yes
        move drmedia * wherestate=mo rem=bulk wait=yes
        update stg diskdata hi=0 lo=0
        update stg diskdirs hi=0 lo=0
        expire inventory wait=yes
        update stg diskdata hi=20 lo=3 cache=y
        update stg diskdirs hi=90 lo=5 cache=y
        move drmedia * wherestate=courierr wait=yes
        move drmedia * wherestate=mo rem=bulk wait=yes
        move drmedia * wherestate=notmountable -
          wait=yes rem=bulk
        /* */
 the move drmedia is a figment of having DRM.
If someone has a better way, please let me know.  ... Always trolling
for
constructive criticism.
