Q:
Second tier storage: Putting our DFSMS/HSM ML1 data on FATA-disk
HSM, Tiered storage, Hierarchical Storage Management, Data storage management, DFSM, Data Facility Storage Management Subsystem, FATA, Fibre Attached Technology Adapted
We are mainframe users (IBM Z9 and Z10). All DASD is IBM DS8300 and we are looking at the implementation of a second tier.

We would like to put our DFSMS/HSM ML1 data on FATA-disk. After some calculations we found out that a 150 TB second tier buffer would be big enough to store one year of ML1 data. Older data will be sent to a virtual tape system (SUN/STK VSM).

What are people’s opinions as to whether this is a good thing to do?
