I recommend using one domain where possible. I've seen sites that have gone crazy with domains, making them hard to manage.
I think it's NOT useful to have a OS-specific domains, like one for NT and a domain for AIX, though I see this done a lot. It may be useful to have domains for different parts of the business, if you need to give someone else limited TSM access rights to those nodes. Another reason for breaking your site up into domains is that some nodes need different policies than other nodes. But consider: some FILES on node X need different policies than other FILES on the same node X. Use client option sets or the dsm.opt files to set up these policies (either at the node level, the file level, or both), not domains. IMHO, anyway. --------------------------------- Mr. Lindsay Morris CEO, Servergraph www.servergraph.com 859-253-8000 ofc 425-988-8478 fax > -----Original Message----- > From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of > Wholey, Joseph (TGA\MLOL) > Sent: Wednesday, April 03, 2002 12:08 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: domain ? > > > Is there any reason why I wouldn't create one huge domain and > have production, development and QA servers backing up to it? > What are the pros and cons of 1 domain vs. many?
