Hi, all!
We are running tsm 5.2.x on Linux; 1 Server; clients with NFS mounted dirs;
My question is:
Why doesn't tsm see nfs mounted directories? Everything works fine. Only
tsm has a problem: No backup for nfs mounted directories??
I'm afraid solution is simple, but sorry I failed...
TIA,
Hi all!
We are running TSM 5.2.x on Linux, 1 Server; TL3583 with 4x LTO3 drives;
My question is:
What could cause, during normal business, the tsm server to set all its

Has anybody a reason for this?

Hi all,
Is it possible to use one tsm-accounting-file from two tsm-server-instances
(TSM V 5.2.4.3 on AIX 5.2 ML6).
Thanks

Dierk - The answer should be in your server Activity Log, if not also
your OS error log.
The cause is usually hardware problems; in your case, whatever is common
to the pathing, as for example a SCSI cable come loose, the library
being powered off by an operator, etc.

Dierk -
You need to post technical details in such problems.
By default, TSM backs up local file systems, given that networked
file system backups incur more overhead than is often realistic; and
NFS can exhibit timeouts and other irregularities which bungle backups.
Review your DOMain
Chris - That's not documented as supported, and would risk
collisions and data loss.
I don't see a need for mingling, given how easy it is to report
from multiple source logs. It is also the case that the log does not

Well I set caching to off on the disk pool on the original server and then

We have a bunch of old 3590 tapes that we would like to get rid of and replace
by higher capacity tapes. Instead of just moving the data off the old tapes to

old tapes to new. Has anyone done this ? How
Simply do a move data for each volume.
If the destination stgpool is collocated, tsm takes care of it already.
Doing this very thing righ now. Works great.

To my knowledge the Webclient (java) and the Windowsclient first use the

In dsm.opt, your lanfreetcpserveraddress must be the address of

So, what I can see is that the line on dsm.opt might be:

Hi Richard
How about this?
Backup your disk stgpool to a separate, distinct copypool (just for ease of
restore you could use your regular copypool)
When you get to the new system, mark your old volumes as destroyed, define
your new disk volumes and add them to the stgpool, then run a RESTORE
