Need to archive 50tb of data with millions of files, here is the caveat, tsm db
at 220gb, planning on upgrading from 5.5 to 6.2 in the near future, but
currently waiting for newer hardware, how would one accomplish this without
causing too much db bloat? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Rick, i was going to try an image backup, but was unsure of the impact
to the db, would you recommend straight to LT05 or diskpool first then migrate
to tape, since these are going to be kept for long term storage?

How many millions of files? A worst case would be 2000 bytes/file in the
DB when you upgrade to 6.2, which isn't so bad. For reference, we're
tracking around 280 million files in our TSM 6.1 server and it's only
~360GB.

Need to archive 50tb of data with millions of files, here is the caveat,
tsm db at 220gb, planning on upgrading from 5.5 to 6.2 in the near
future, but currently waiting for newer hardware
will can divide by unit or filesystem. and testing if it
will be a solution valid for you
Finally NAS solution could solve some previous issues.

Hi,
Also think about about what and why.
If you need to archive 50TB of data to create space, to archive just
once and move the data to TSM, just do it, it isn't such a problem.
But if you do the archive as an other way of doing for instance
monthly backups, don't use archives, use backupsets in
