IBM Spectrum Protect: Deep dive into Container storage pools - Presentation

[@view360deg]

First of all, very good information here. 2ndly, when same terms have different meaning in new technology age, it must be revised or made clear. "Containers" are something quite different in 2018

We are planning to build New TSM Server on an Azure Linux VM machine in the cloud. We would like to use the feature Directory Container storage pool as a primary storage pool.
We are already aware that the Directory Container storage pool uses the local SAN disk to store the backups. Instead of using the local disks, we wanted to use the NFS share(Hot blog mount as NFS share) attached to the Directory Container storage pool as a backup location. Would you please help me to understand NFS mount option works for the Directory Container storage pool, if it works what about the backup/restore performance?

HI - www.ibm.com/support/pages/considerations-using-nfs-v3-protocol-ibm-spectrum-protect-storage-pool The blueprints show the performance we need for the stgpool workload, so the standard answer is that we do not prevent you from using NFS for dir container pools or file pools, but you need to be able to reliably maintain the required performance. The tech doc closes out by recommend periodic auditing.
