I am in the process of planning a TSM configuration for dual
data centers. I expect to have one instance of the TSM server
code at each data center dedicated to the library manager
function for the automatic tape library at that site. Based
on reports from other sites that have set up library managers,
I expect a database size of about 200 megabytes for each
library manager. I expect to be using TSM Version 6. The
documentation indicates that the minimum size for the
active log is 2 gigabytes. This size will double if I mirror
the active log, as I would prefer. Is there any way to
avoid the absurdity of an active log 20 times as big as the
database it supports?
