IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Storage Area Networks, Version 7.1

File device sharing

When Tivoli® Storage Manager servers share access to disk storage, the environment contains a shared FILE device class and uses file-sharing software.

Note: IBM® General Parallel File System is the preferred option for the operating systems on which it is supported. All servers and storage agents must have access to the same General Parallel File System storage. Enable the instance user IDs for the server and the user ID for the storage agents to access the General Parallel File System storage. For more information about setting up user ID mapping in a mixed Windows or UNIX environment, see General Parallel File System documentation.
