RE: Tape backup strategy

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

Hey, anything in your joblogs to indicate the start/stop time before and 
after the data compression was changed?  Want to see if the new 
compression slowed it down, so's as you would notice.  Just curious, not 
trying to compare to anything here.  Just always hearing the saw about 
performance and I want to check.

> True, but it's rather tough to do hardware compression on a save file.

There are various areas where I do saves to a save file just prior to some
big batch update process.  I also do a SAVLIB twice a day of our main
database library to 2 different save files, then put these 2 save files 
onto
a single tape.

After you posted your message last week about the new options on the 
DTACPR
parm, I changed all these to *HIGH.  Since Friday, my disk usage has gone
from ~70% to ~52%.  And no one has complained about performance. <g>
