Hello everyone, I am having issues with a tape drive shortage. I currently have 15 LTO2 tape drives that are being shared between 2 TSM servers that are being managed by an External library through ACSLS & Gresham. I only want each system to use 6 drives for the backup of the storage pools. Would running the following script solve my dilemma?
ba stg windows copy_windows maxpr=6 wait=yes ba stg solaris copy_solaris maxpr=6 wait=yes ba stg linux copy_linux maxpr=6 wait=yes ba stg oracle copy_oracle maxpr=6 wait=yes ba stg aix copy_aix maxpr=6 wait=yes ba stg notes copy_notes maxpr=6 wait=yes ba stg tape_windows copy_windows maxpr=3 wait=yes ba stg tape_solaris copy_solaris maxpr=3 wait=yes ba stg tape_linux copy_linux maxpr=3 wait=yes ba stg tape_oracle copy_oracle maxpr=3 wait=yes ba stg tape_aix copy_aix maxpr=3 wait=yes ba stg tape_notes copy_notes maxpr=3 Also, what would happen if the backup of one of the storage pools fails? Will all of the storage pools after that point in time not backup or would it continue down the list? If they all would fail, how can I circumvent this issue from happening? What would be my best method for getting the data copied to tape? Thank you in advance for any suggestions! ******************************** Joni Moyer Highmark Storage Systems Work:(717)302-6603 Fax:(717)302-5974 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ********************************
