Complete Table 2-1 using a column for data from each client being considered
for this Tivoli Storage Manager implementation. Analyzing client data helps you
make decisions about the Tivoli Storage Manager server environment. The
information collected in the table is used for node definitions and for calculating
database, recovery log, and storage pool sizes.
This table is presented in a portrait orientation in the book due to space
considerations. If you have a large number of nodes or use a spreadsheet
version, you may find the table more workable by transposing it to a landscape
orientation.
