Re: Working with two servers
I don't think that server-to-server will fix it. If Server 1 sends the data to be stored on Server 2 (as it's offsite backup), and then Server 1 fails, you can't just do the restore with Server 2. Only Server 1 has the right metadata in it's data base to do the restore. -Original Message- From: Malbrough, Demetrius [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, November 27, 2001 9:24 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Working with two servers -Luciano- It seems to me that you want to set up Server-to-Server communications or Server-to-Server virtual volumes.

Re: Working with two servers
TSM 5.1 will have server-to-server export, useful for duplicating servers for DR. In other words, the "export server" command will have a "toserver=" option. More than that, I don't know, but it sounds like just what you're looking for (and probably easier than setting up clustering). > -Original Message- > From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of > Malbrough, Demetrius > Sent: Tuesday, November 27, 2001 9:24 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: Working with two servers > > > -Luciano- > > It seems to me that you want to set up Server-to-Server communications or > Server-to-Server virtual volumes.
