Chapter 16. Leveraging SAN environments

16.2.2 Defining the device class
In Example 16-4 we define a device class for the IBM 3582 with the appropriate
tape format. Note that we set the tape retention time to 5 minutes only, to ensure
that tape volumes are dismounted as soon as they are no longer required for the
operation in progress. Thus, when a library manager or client requires a mount
point in the future, it does not need to wait for the idle tape to be dismounted first.
Example 16-4 Define the device class for the shared library
tsm: ATLANTIC>
define devclass LTO2C devtype=LTO library=3582_SHARED \
cont> format=ULTRIUM2C mountretention=5 mountlimit=DRIVES
ANR2203I Device class LTO2C defined
For the complete syntax of the
define devclass
command for other storage
devices supported by IBM Tivoli Storage Manager, refer to the IBM Tivoli
Storage Manager Administrator’s Reference.
16.2.3 Creating primary sequential storage pool for LAN-free
Now define a storage pool using the device class we just created, which will be
used by the LAN-free clients as their data destination. In Example 16-5 we define
a primary sequential storage pool called TAPEDATA_LF.
Example 16-5 Define a primary sequential storage pool for LAN-free
tsm: ATLANTIC>
define stgp tapedata_lf lto2c description="Lan-free storage pool"\
cont> collocate=no maxscratch=99
ANR2200I Storage pool TAPEDATA_LF defined (device class LTO2C).
Note: In a mixed server and Storage Agent version environment, you should
choose a recording format supported by both server and Storage Agent. For
example, if your drives support more than one recording format (that is, LTO3
drives support writes using both LTO2 and LTO3 format), and your server is
running Version 5.3.2 (which supports LTO3), but Storage Agents are on 5.2.3
(which supports only LTO2), you must either choose LTO2 format or upgrade
your Storage Agent to a version that supports LTO3.
