Lately we have bought more IBM tape libraries and new LTO 5 drives to upgrade our TSM infrastructure at the Fernuniversität in Hagen. In addition to this new clusters running Oracle Solaris 11 have been installed including a cluster that will be running SAP NetWeaver 7.31 PI soon. Especially this cluster will be very important for us. Support for TSM on Oracle Solaris 11 is really important for us.
We are running +150 non-global zones on Solaris 10 and we want to migrate to Solaris 11 x86 in the near future. In addition to this we have about 10 Oracle Solaris Clusters (Solaris 10/11, Oracle Solaris Cluster 3.x / 4.x). Our SAP installation is running on Solaris, too. Everything ist currently backed up by several TSM servers. So full TSM support in the future is vital for us.
