Hi Gregory

My comment was to this previous comment:

"But, the most important with the 6.x is the architecture of database files.
You have to reserve one disk for the database, on for the actlog and one other 
for the archlog.
Having this disks on the same axe may result poor efficientie"

What I ment was that it has never been recommended to share the same array / 
spindle / filesystem between logs and database.

If you go back to the TSM v5.5 performance guide, you'll will notice the 
recommendation to separate log and DB on separate spindles / filesystems / 
arrays.

As for DB2, yes, DB2 is new for v6, but the performance setup isnt.

My guess is that if your setup crashed after 2 months, whoever implemented your 
solution probably shared filesystemspace between the database and some other 
part of TSM, such as archivelog or log. Since a) the database can now grow "of 
it's own" I wouldnt place it with something else since you might run out of 
space b) I wouldnt share archivelog space with something else either since it 
also "grows of it's own".

I cant imagine that your TSM implementation crashed just because the person who 
implemented it placed the database on a single filesystem. This is technically 
possible, but not something I would recommend due to performance issues.

Hello Daniel,

You say : ' That's not really something new to TSM v6'.

DB2 is now the DBMS for TSM, and if DB2 improve database, DB2 has system 
requirement who was not the same in previous version

My experience:
The installer has set up the solution on our site has not implemented the 
recommendations related to DB2.
TSM crash after two months.

That's not really something new to TSM v6. For performance reasons, it has 
always been recommended to separate database and log on different spindles. 

As with v6, at least for larger implementations, the same rule of thumb 
applies: Try separating your DB paths on at least 4 different arrays/spindles, 
preferably 8 or more. Too many will not increase performance, rather reduce it. 
Put your active log / log mirror on spindles of it's own, as well as your 
archivelog / failover paths.

Watch out for sharing archivelog with something else (like storage) since the 
database backup trigger will look at the % used on the filesystem. So putting 
storagepools and then your archivelog in the same filesystem probably isnt the 
best of ideas.

Best Regards

Hello Gary,

Effectively, the database grows between 10 and 20 %. (more if new features, 
like dedup, are intalled)
But, the most important with the 6.x is the architecture of database files.
You have to reserve one disk for the database, on for the actlog and one other 
for the archlog.
Having this disks on the same axe may result poor efficientie

Objet : [ADSM-L] Tsm v6 migration question

We are preparing to migrate our tsm v5,5,4 system to 6.2.2.


Are there any rules of thumb for relating db size in v5.5.4 with what we will 
need under v6?

I assume it will be somewhat larger being a truly relational structure.

Thanks for any help.
