Re: TSM DB Size
For the longest time, the easiest place to take the TSM server's bio signs, was to check how long expiration processing takes. If you could get expiration processing done in an hour, and you didn't have any other functional problems with your daily process, then your database is not too big. Servers have been getting faster. Tape, disk, and network bandwidths have been increasing. As long as you don't fall into the pitfall of putting half a dozen TSM servers on one tier2 storage array, reasonable databases should continue to grow.

Re: TSM DB Size
Certainly the architectural limit is a boundary you don't want to get very close to. But besides that, there are issues of database performance as the DB grows and grows. We have TSM servers running four TSM instances on 8-way pSeries AIX servers with redundant FC links to raw logical volumes on EMC Symmetrix or Clariiion disk, with databases ranging from 80-225GB, and their performance is just fine. Expire inventory times are 1-2 hours, Database backup is 1-2 hours max (to LTO4 tape drives). But we also have smaller Windows servers with dual processors and LTO3 tape drives, and with 30-50GB databases the Expire Inventory and Database backups are also 1-2 hours. If we let those Windows TSM databases grow to 225GB they would not perform nearly so well, so we have to watch how big they grow. Best Regards, John D.

Re: TSM DB SIZE
Hi, Can any one suggest what should be a recovery log and db size for the 135TB backup with retention of 90 days? I think this depends on the number of files and the number of backup copies. -- Regards, Dirk Kastens Universitaet Osnabrueck, Rechenzentrum (Computer Center) Albrechtstr. 28, 49069 Osnabrueck, Germany Tel.: +49-541-969-2347, FAX: -2470
