3590 with fibre channel

2001-07-20 Thread Maria Paz Gimeno

Re: How database volume s and log gets backedup.

2001-05-07 Thread Maria Paz Gimeno
The way TSM works in its database backups is to use an exclusive tape for each backup version. You can not have two backups in the same tape. For incrementals you could use a FILE device class on disk to save scratch tapes. Regards Maria - Original Message - From: PINNI, BALANAND (SBCSI)

Re: Storage pools and Cached files

2001-03-22 Thread Maria Paz Gimeno
I do not understand quite well what you try to accomplish. But anyhow, cached data on disk only remains until a new backup needs the space. In the tape you will have all the data from the different versions you are keeping. So it is normal that you have much more data on tape than on disk. If you
