Hello,
I am planning to migrate my ADSM server to a new Server running TSM.
ADSM 3.1.2.50 RS/6000 R20 (IBM 3466 B03) 3494 Library 3590 B1A drives- OLD
SERVER
TSM 3.7 RS/6000 H70 (IBM 3466 C01) - 3494 Library 3590 E1A drives - NEW SERVER
AND NEW 3494
Here is my basic plan:
From the old server:
1. Copy devconfig and volhist. Record db and log size from q log and q db
2. Initiate a full db backup then eject from library / insert in new Library
From the new server:
1. Restore devconfig and volhist.
2. Format the db and log via:
dsmserv format 1 <logname> sizeinMB 1 <dbname> sizeinMB
3. Restore the db via:
dsmserv restore db todate=<todays date>
From what I have read I will not have to do a upgrade db because when running
on AIX this is done automatically.
4. Move all the tapes from the old 3494 to the new 3494.
The part I am not sure of is the format db command. Is this necessary if I'm
doing a restore db?
How can I find out what my database name and recovery log name is?
This is the output from q logvol:
Volume Name Copy Volume Name Copy Volume Name Copy
(Copy 1) Status (Copy 2) Status (Copy 3) Status
---------------- ------ ---------------- ------ ---------------- ------
/lgaa1dk2/lg Sync'd /lgaa1dk6/lg Sync'd Undef-
ined
This is the output from q log:
Available Assigned Maximum Maximum Page Total Used Pct Max.
Space Capacity Extension Reduction Size Usable Pages Util Pct
(MB) (MB) (MB) (MB) (bytes) Pages Util
--------- -------- --------- --------- ------- --------- --------- ----- -----
1,980 1,980 0 1,976 4,096 506,368 215 0.0 1.1
(Courier New and Font 10 will make the q log,logvol look normal)
Would the command be: dsmserv format db 1 lgaa1dk2 1980 1 <db> <size>?
Would I have to issue this command for each recovery log volume and each db
volume?
I think I'm missing something here... I've spent hours searching the list and
reading the adsm guides but I am
still unsure.. I'm a new adsmer, sorry for the "dumb" questions..
Thanks in advance,
Denis
