Re: [ADSM-L] Increase performance with SSD disls

Hello Robert,

We use SSD arrays for both our database and our active log. That said, unless you are using TSM deduplication or node replication, SSD disks should not be required for good server performance. Standard 15K SAS drives are more than sufficient for regular server operations when dedup and replication are not used.

Your restore steps appear correct and should function as desired.

Regards,

Hi to all To increase performance on my TSM servers 7.1.1.0 , I think to install my databases on SSD disks. I have some questions: Þ Will be more efficient to put the active log too on the SSD disks Þ Can I move in the same step the database and the active log as: o On dsmserv.opt change the activelogdir to the new path for SSD disk (before I un the restore db) o dsmserv restore db todate=today on=dbdir.file (on dbdir.file the new path for SSD disks) Best Regards Robert
