The system administrator should be familiar with backup and restore operations and with the basic administration of a Celerra Network Server.

The short story: 1. Zone the Celerra to the tape drive(s). 2. through the magic of Celerra commands discover the tape drives and note their names. a. server_devconfig server_2 -create -scsi -nondisks b. server_devconfig server_2 -probe -scsi -nondisks c. server_devconfig server_2 -list -scsi -nondisks 3. Using one of the previously mentioned IBM docs setup and create the NAS devices and pools. We run 16TB to two 3592's and run 36 hours. You did not say what reasonable was.

Rout Sent: Thursday, June 10, 2010 4:05 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] Celerra NDMP Hi, folks. I'm in the happy state of needing to attempt some NDMP backups. Remember that 12TB FS conversation we had a while back? Well boy howdy, someone has just presented me with one. We're failing to complete backups in any reasonable timeframe. I intend to continue experimenting with The Right Way, but I need a stopgap, and it looks like NDMP is it. But I'm having difficulty deciphering some of the instructions: they talk about telling the DataMover the controller, ID, and lun. I may be dense, but I'm accustomed to using rmt devices or WWNs. Anybody got a pointer to the Fine Manual ? The logs of this list include a tantalizing reference to success after "reading between the lines a little bit"; but I was unable to find anything concrete. I'm on Version 5, Release 5, Level 3.0 of TSM, in case it matters. - Allen S. Rout This e-mail (including any attachments) is confidential and may be legally privileged.
