Hi Ed

This is what one of our local tech users said we could do


- Restore from VTL to Site A Dev LPARs
- Transfer from Site A Dev to Site B prod LPAR;
- Save from Site B prod LPAR to Site B prod ATL/VTL;
- Transfer from Site A dev to Site B dr LPAR;
- Save from Site B dr LPAR to Site B dr ATL/VTL;
-

At the moment Site A VTL is ProtecTier.

Site B VTL not purchased yet.

I don't know if that would work since once a VTL backup is restored what
format is it?

The devil is in the detail which I don't have yet.

Hi Laurence

Thanks for your reply, My apologies, my question might have been too

brief

or vague.

What I meant was, what does it mean to do what you are describing in
practical terms. i.e. how would a VTL backup be restored to one of the
Power servers; what were the specific steps involved ? It sounds very
simple the way that you described it, but I was imagining that there

might

be a lot of complexity in the details.

My first thought was, does this mean restore the data and then re-run

the

save operation ? Apart from the practical details of releases, backup
details to run the same backup again etc, this would be a pretty
time-consuming activity and clearly you would need a spare LPAR to

carry

out the operation.

My second thought was, is there a way to basically copy the entire tape
into a file on the i then reconstitute it onto another tape - maybe as

a

kind of analog to a virtual tape copy operation. if the tape formats

were

the same or were somehow extracted and standardised as part of the copy
operation then it seems like this would be doable so I was interested

in

how this might work if that was the plan. But different size tapes,

block

sizes, storage mechanisms etc. at the file level could be a challenge.

Basically I was interested in the mechanics of how this was going to be
done because I figured that either the devil was in the details and it
would not sound so attractive when the commands or process were laid

out,

or there was a clever solution/alternate way of thinking about it and I
might learn something.

We have done some thinking on and off here about this because the last

part

of your comment about formatting them in a SAN suggests an approach we

have

been playing with - reconstituting tapes and storing them in an S3

object

store, perhaps something like ICOS. We found we could not just take the
tape files out as the de-dup database lived on the appliance (in our

case a

Dell DD) so that tape would have to be re-hydrated. We worked out an
approach to do this to offload tapes from the DD into an S3 type cloud
which essentially involved something like doing a DUPTAP from the DD

into a

virtual tape on a spare IBM i LPAR then moving the virtual tape images

into

the object store for archival. In any event, we are still thinkign

about

this so I was interested in what you had discovered.

Does ProtectTier allow VTL to physical tape copying? If so, could

you

hook up a new VTL and copy to that, and then that could replicate

to

the

like model remote VTL.
Failing the ProtectTier connection then could you DUPMEDBRM from

the

ProtectTier to a new local VTL which would then replicate to the

like

model

remote VTL?
In the future you could decide to repurpose the like model VTL from

the

parent company to some more suitable location for the subsidiary.

Unfortunately it's a little bit more complex than that.

They organization in question is a large financial services company

with

a

semi-independent subsidiary. What we are trying to do is move a key
application running on Power servers on the main company to

separate

instances running in separate data centers for the subsidiary.

There

are

no

plans for the main company to move off their ProtecTier solutions

but

the

subsidiary company is setting up a completely independent Power

Server

infrastructure.

This secondary infrastructure will need to be fed images from the
development LPAR for a few months during transition and also

transfer

over

7 years worth of archive data in ProtecTier VTL format.

I did have an email conversation with DSI and they said they could

import

VTL backups from ProtecTier but the two VTLs have to be fiber

channel

connected. Clearly that's not an option for this organization

because

the

subsidiary is 1500 km away from the main company.

I'm not sure you could even do that via DWDM or else we would need

to

locate the DSI solution in the primary data center, fiber channel

connect

them and do the import and then ship the device to the secondary

site.

But

that still doesn't answer the question of how to send LPARs over

for

a

few

months on a regular basis.

Instead of just adding a new unit you may have to migrate the

existing

unit first, then add your new unit.

If it is a complete migration with no continuation of

interchangeability

then you have to ask yourself if having the migration path makes

it

worthwhile to go to DSI or should you just go to whatever

solution

Just to add more data to my original query.

The first site uses ProtecTier as their backup mechanism. I

looked

everywhere in online documentation but cannot determine if this

software

writes backups in a proprietary format or in the same format it

would

write

to a tape.

Since ProtecTier is no longer sold by IBM, they recommend DSI

products.

So

in the second data center we would probably have to purchase DSI

VTL

since

at least IBM recommends them and on the website they say they

have

a

migration process from ProtecTier. The interesting question now

is

how

to

transfer all the backups taken in the primary site into

ProtectTier

to

be

imported into the DSI virtual tape library.

If they are not in a proprietary format, could we just transmit

them

over

the wire and then get DSI to import them as if they were coming

from

a

physical tape drive? I guess that's a question we need to ask the

vendors.

The ugliest solution of course is to dump all the backups back to

physical

tape and ship them over but that really is a last resort.

I would check into the migration feature though. I am not

aware,

but

could be wrong, that it actually migrates the tapes between

VTLs.

When we move tapes between VTLs we do this:

Hook VTL #1 to an IBM i Partition.
Hook VTL #2 to that same IBM i Partition.

DUPTAP from VTL #1 to VTL #2.

Maybe not the slickest or simplest but it CAN easily be coded

in

a

CL

program for example. AND it works.

Downside of course is that both VTLs must co-exist in the same

DC

at

least for a while.

I just found out that in location A which is two sites,

We are creating a new site but want to be able to transmit

Ignoring that, when you use a VTL (Virtual Tape Library,

the

thinks it's saving to an IBM tape library. To the IBM i

the

it's

disk

drives is it's own business and is very proprietary between

brands.

And how they replicate the data between two VTL's of the

manufacturer is again proprietary and is NOT done by DUPMED

or

DUPMEDBRM. Therefore you cannot just plop a VTL from a

different

manufacturer in there and have them duplicate the tapes

This is somewhat vague but why I asked about VTL solutions

I

was

told

this.

Backups are managed using BRMS.

The application saves the DB to a Save file and then saves

the

Save

File to tape. So perhaps the storage appliance is only

being

used

as

a

virtual tape device replicating what you would do with a

physical

tape

or autoloader?

So the formats are not proprietary?
