Hi Richard I see the following which to me looks as I would expect and vol 000188 was indeed the volume I used this morning. I did not see any errors during backup or restore.
The only thing is that the database volumes on the new server had mirrored copies already in place. These were stale when I started the server but then syncd ok. Could this have caused a problem? date time TYPE BACKUP_SERIES VOLUME_NAME ----------------------- ------------------ ------------- ------------------ 2006-04-03 10:14:19.00- BACKUPFULL 1912 000193 0000 2006-04-04 09:40:02.00- BACKUPFULL 1913 000370 0000 2006-04-05 09:32:03.00- BACKUPFULL 1914 000413 0000 2006-04-06 09:59:45.00- BACKUPFULL 1915 000441 0000 2006-04-07 09:36:42.00- BACKUPFULL 1916 000488 0000 2006-04-08 10:05:48.00- BACKUPFULL 1917 000188 0000 Thanks Farren |-----------------------------+-------------------------------------------| | Richard Sims <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | | | Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor | | | Manager" | To| | <ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU> | [EMAIL PROTECTED]| | | U | | 08/04/2006 16:40 | cc| | | | | Please respond to | Subject| | "ADSM: Dist Stor | Re: [ADSM-L] Some | | Manager" | strange tape | | <ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU> | related issues? | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |-----------------------------+-------------------------------------------| Farren - The kind of inconsistencies you're seeing are the kind I would expect if your new TSM server db is stale or otherwise inconsistent with the state of your production server. This particularly shows up where you have multiple TSM servers in any manner sharing the same library. There should have been a good db restoral as you went to the new server today. One quick way to check that is to do: SELECT DATE_TIME AS "DATE TIME ",TYPE,BACKUP_SERIES,VOLUME_NAME - FROM VOLHISTORY WHERE TYPE='BACKUPFULL' OR TYPE='BACKUPINCR' and check the date-time values for currency.
