You have volf and roundrobin. Sounds like a fairytale to me.

Thanks to everyone for their input on creating copypools on disk ( and
wildcard deletes)
I discovered a few things from a typo. I entered an incorrect directory
name in the device class def and TSM dymanicly created the directory and
file-volumes in that directory. That led to some confusion
Anyone who has copypools on disk, I am wondering if this is your
experience:
1). It only fills the volumes a few % before creating a new one.
2). The activity log is showing write errors, then creating a new
volume. I susspect that is because I set the devclass to 50G and
the AIX max file size
Have you reviewed the Technotes on the ANR8785E message relative to
your configuration?
Yes, but it doesn't directly explain the situation.
But I can infer from it that since my devclass had been set at 50G and
I did not have large file enabled on AIX,
that it hit the 2GB limit. The percentage of usage on each volume
appears to comfirm this.

I believe define volume can only be used on devclass of disk, not file.

Hi all,
just my two cents on file-deviceclass: I agree with Kelly that Volumes

We tried file device class with our onsite pool with disappointing

I believe the problem was our decision not to stripe across LUN's.

would have made performance much better, at the cost of a LUN failure
causing more damage than if we used them indicidually. Now, I can't

Markus,
Good catch!
I did hear, though, that due to the file system design, perhaps
pre-formatting volumes on AIX will cause fragmentation rather than
preventing it. I'm not an AIX guy but would hope that someone who is
would weigh in here.
I'm very curious how this

We are migrateing our copypool from cartridge to a DS4800.
From the manuals copypools only support FILE type devices.
My assumptions ( on AIX) are:
-I create logical volumes and file systems
-Define the device class
-TSM then creates the files in the filesystem
