I am wondering why TSM goes by Pct Migr rather than Pct Util to
decide when to migrate the storage pool. We are fairly disk
constrained right now. A couple of times a week, large database is
backed up, that keeps Pct Migr and Pct Util far apart. The storage
pool fills up, but migration has not kicked in because Pct Migr is
30% to 40% lower than Pct Util. I could adjust my levels, but it
doesn't make sense for TSM to let the storage pool fill up. Thanks.
Andy -
Pct Migr is distinct from Pct Util because the former reflects truly
eligible data, which is to say *committed* files, a contrasted with
space further occupied by data which is in flight per a transaction
which is in progress. Disk space needs to be sufficiently capacious
to accommodate the reality of the data operations.
