<h1 class="topictitle1">Hardware considerations for saving storage</h1>
<div><p>The following list explains limitations of hardware during a save storage
procedure:</p>
<ul><li>If the tape unit supports hardware data compression, then tape unit uses
hardware data compression. If the tape unit does not support device data
compression, then you may use programming data compression. Generally if the
tape unit device operates faster than possible for data compression, the tape
unit writes data without compression to the device.</li>
<li>The server only uses one tape unit.</li>
<li>The save storage process does not start unless all of the configured disk
units are operating.</li>
<li>The server cannot use some tape units as an alternate IPL device. In these
cases, you cannot use these tape units to restore the Licensed Internal Code
and the Licensed Internal Code PTFs from the save storage tape.</li>
<li>The disk configuration of the restoring server must be the same as the
disk configuration of the saving server. The disk types and models must be
the same or equivalent with some additional devices. Serial numbers and physical
addresses do not have to be the same. All disk units that were saved are required
for the restore operation.</li>
<li><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />A virtual tape device cannot be used.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></li>
