<html><body><p><font size="4">Hi all,</font><br><br><font size="4">In the last months several customers were asking for the option to use multiple IBM Spectrum Protect servers to protect a single IBM Spectrum Scale file system. Some of these customer reached the server scalability limits, others wanted to increase the parallelism of the server housekeeping processes. In consideration of the significant grow of data it can be assumed that more and more customers will be faced with this challenge in the future. Therefore, this paper was written that helps to address this situation. </font><br><br><font size="4">This paper describes the setup and configuration of multiple IBM Spectrum Protect servers to be used to store backup and hsm data of a single IBM Spectrum Scale file system. Beside the setup and configuration several best practices were written to the paper that help to simplify the daily use and administration of such environments.</font><br><br><font size="4">Find the paper here:</font><br><br><a href="https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/Tivoli%20Storage%20Manager/page/Petascale%20Data%20Protection"><font size="4">https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/Tivoli%20Storage%20Manager/page/Petascale%20Data%20Protection</font></a><br><br><font size="4">A big </font><b><font size="5">THANK YOU</font></b><font size="4"> goes to my co-writers </font><b><font size="4">Thomas Schreiber</font></b><font size="4"> and </font><b><font size="4">Patrick Luft</font></b><font size="4"> for their important input and all the tests (...and re-tests and re-tests and re-tests :-) ) they did. </font><br><br><font size="4">...please share in your communities.</font><br><br>Greetings, Dominic.<br><br>______________________________________________________________________________________________________________<br>Dominic Mueller-Wicke | IBM Spectrum Protect Development | Technical Lead | +49 7034 64 32794 | dominic.mueller@de.ibm.com<br><br>Vorsitzende des Aufsichtsrats: Martina Koederitz; Geschäftsführung: Dirk Wittkopp<br>Sitz der Gesellschaft: Böblingen; Registergericht: Amtsgericht Stuttgart, HRB 243294<BR>
