Hi, We are running TSM 5.2.6.0 on Z/OS 1.4
As from next week we are going to replace our old ESS disk storage with DS8100 At this moment we only have 3390 disks model 3 (for DB, Reclog and storage pools) We want to use 3390 model 9 on the new DS8100 Some questions : Is it possible to use a mixed (model 3 and model 9) environment for the TSM DB ? (and reclog and storage pools) Do I have to create a new devclass e.g. DISKmod9 ? Or can I just use our current DISK devclass (see below) ? Can I just continue using the same allocate and format job to take new disk volumes in production for TSM ? Other points to consider ? Personally I think I do not have to do anything special but just to be sure I would like to hear some experiences.
