Actually IBM does consider backup and ILM in the GPFS file system. Now with

Agreed that NDMP is awful. I think you're on the right track with your NFS
solution. Here's how we deal with it now:
* Break your NFS volumes up into different mount points (i.e. break
/net/example/foo into /net/example/foo/dir1, /net/example/foo/dir2, ...).
Reference each mount point using -d
Wanda, next time you see this check to see if Exchange is running an integrity
check (eseutil in process list) on the database. I know you told it not to do
it in your command line; but, perhaps, Exchange decides it should run it
despite the backup client's instruction not to. If you do not see
I generally like the TS3500, but have had some issues in the last 12 months.
Two close to identical libraries in two sites running mainframe TS1120s

upgraded the VTL and added mainframe drives and added storage frames of
