The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.

Previously, we archived to an 3995 C42 Optical Library,
In 2012, we migrated several million files from the 3995 to the IFS.
We currently have every archived spoolfile from 1998, on the IFS, on SSD.
We took the archive out of the equation.
As HDD/SSD become larger and cheaper, archiving to DASD may be a viable option.

Subject: Robot REPORTS Archive and BRMS?
System formerly known as AS/400 fans,
Does anyone here have experience handling Robot REPORTS long term storage
archives to tape when BRMS is used for tape management? It looks like
using SetMedBRM to set a media policy, etc., before running RepArchive
LongTerm might work. If anyone has experience with this, I'm open to
suggestions media policy retention settings, etc. To complicate things we
have one tape library shared across all our LPARs. Currently Robot REPORTS
is only licensed on one LPAR. It's no problem moving the library to that
LPAR before an archive run, but users trying to retrieve a report from long
term storage might be an issue if the library is allocated to a different
LPAR.
