Hi,
Which one performs better in TSM for AIX:
1- using one big TSM volume on a big striped filesystem
2- using multiple smaller TSM volumes each on a separate filesystem (each
filesystem resides on a separate hdisk)
(in either case, disks are RAID protected in disk subsystem layer)

I assumed that TSM does not lock a volume while a client is sending backup
data to it such that other clients can read/write from/to this volume
simultaneously. Correct me if I am mistaken, please.

Thanks so much,
Mehdi Salehi
