I've totally run out of ideas on this and am seeking some help.
One of the systems I backup is a large SQL server, I backup the diskdumps on a
daily basis with the largest files being aprox 110gb and 250gb.
On trying to restore large files on our DR system it starts very quickly but
after
Thanks for the comments.
Sadly I can't restore to a different server as only the TSM server and the SQL
box are on this site purely for DR nothing else is attached. I have restored to
the TSm box itself and got decent throughput.
Both network ports and switch ports have been chacked and
Try restoring the dir's then the files..we had this during DR and found the
only way we could ever restore succesfully was by doing the dir structure
first.

Does anyone have a script that would tell me how many extra versions (we
currently have up to 14) exists on a node and how much space they are taking
up??

We had our DLT drives swapped out for LTO1 drives last November and set up
the cleaning in the library (STKL180) as per usual, the drives would never
ask for a clean.
By January we where getting massive amounts of tape errors on a daily basis,
after weeks of IBM/STK trying to work out why, for the
The pricing is probably great for new users as the actual server prices are
down a lot, but as we installed our system 4 years ago we got stung for the
high server pricing and now we're upgrading clients we're getting stung for
that as well.

I use a rack full of Neo 2000's to do our DR restores through, apart from
working out the initial changes (as I use an STKL180) it's always worked
pretty well.
Only thing I do dislike is the cap size, on the STK you have a nice big 10
slot cap, on the stacked neos you configure up each to have a

I've been asked to write a document comparing Legato, Netbackup datacentre
and TSM. Never having used Legato and Netbackup makes this a little
difficult, has anyone already gone through this process recently and have
any pointers to docs, reviews, comparisons etc?
Thanks in advance.
Sorry to butt in but we are having massive compatibility problems after
going from seagate drives to ibm drives (ordered IBM drives, seagates turned
up then we got replacement IBM's a month later)
I knew there was a problem but untill now never heard of anyone else with
it, can you tell me where
I have a need to find any data still in existance from 7/12/2002 back to
01/11/2002 and on what volumes it resides.
I realise the only way I'm going to find this is by select but havn't really
played with them much at all, would anyone have any idea of how to do this?
Thanks in advance.

Load up dsmc with the right .opt file
then enter
q ses - will be prompted for username and password
q tsa - this will prompt you for a Netware username and passward
q tsa nds - this again prompts for the NW username and pw
Once you've entered those it should pickup ok.

I have a need to move the log files and database as currently they are on a
raid 5 set shareing this with the diskpools.
I'd like to move the database and log files onto seperate mirrored pairs to
increase the performance and better use the disk space we have.
I've hunted around in the manuals
I assume the tapes from your onsite and offsite pool have also been taken???
Otherwise just mark the tape destroyed and restore it, all the data will
come back from the onsite or offsite copy pool.

We've just upgraded two of our netware 5.1 boxes (latest service packs) to
4gb of ram to test the improvement in caching.
Problem is the last two night since it was upgraded they have failed with
memory errors while doing the backup, the memory was swapped out both times
for new tested memory and
Shortly I'll be upgrading our STK L180 to LTO's from DLT's, due to an
insistance by the customer on monthly archives we have 2 years of archive
tapes on DLT that I'd really rather not have to get converted to LTO.
What I'd like to do is to leave 2 DLT drives in the library as well as
putting in
Sorry should have tagged this onto my previous reply.
This is one of the graphs tsmmanager does, is this what you need??
Btw, I'm only a happy customer of the product and nothing else, but am more
than happy for huge amounts of sponsorship money ;)

Take a look at www.tsmmanager.com this will do exactly what you want and in
a graphical format, you can download it and use the evaluation license to
get the info you need. To be honest after now using this for a couple of
months I can't see how anyone could do without it. It's especially good at
I must be missed something really obvious as all I want to do is list all
the files that were backed up by a node in it's last backup, but can't seem
to find any simple way to do this.

We currently backup 12 Netware servers nightly, I also now need to backup
the directory structure as a seperate backup job.
The reason for this is that in a DR when you do a complete restore of a
Netware server if TSM attempts to restore a file before the dir for it has
been restored it skips the
I must say I'd be amazed if that was the case, it's not just a few files
it's skipping it's thousands. I've included a snippet from the server error
log.
From what I understand, TSM is attempting to restore a file to a directory
that dosn't yet exist. We have not as yet rstored a complete server
only, it doesn't
check in volumes.
