backupset on AIX for Windows client
Never having done this I am curious if anyone has actually created a backupset from a instance of the TSM server running on AIX for a client running on Windows. What was the removable device used?
Re: Subfile backup > 2GB
Hi Steve, As you surmised, the 2 GB limit is not entirely arbitrary. While I cannot formally announce or commit to anything, upping the limit is currently on the radar screen, but not in the near future. It is still "iffy" enough that it could also fall off the radar screen, so take with a grain of salt.

Exporting the backupsets
Hi All, We were creating the backupsets using virtual volumes on z/os environment. Now, while migrating to z/linux, we are trying to export the backupset nodes... The source server reports that: 10/11/2007 05:17:05 ANR0986I Process 5 for EXPORT NODE running in the BACKGROUND processed 52 items for a total of 492,626,569,659 bytes with a completion state of SUCCESS at 05:17:05.(SESSION: 8532, PROCESS: 5) Whereas the target server says: 10/11/2007 05:17:05 ANR0988I Process 5 for IMPORT (from Server TSMLNG1) running in the BACKGROUND processed 38 bytes with a completion state of SUCCESS at 05:17:05 AM. (SESSION: 25091, PROCESS: 5) Has anyone exprienced this before? Where did it export the data? I see no new volumes written to on the target server, nor any occupancy...

Re: Query actlog
Q ACTLOG can be searched using MSGno, Search string, nodename, client or server originated messages, by domain/sched/session... If you wish to search by multiple strings, I think it is better to dump it to a file and play around using your string handling capabilities...

Migration to new server and LAN-free backup
Hi all, We currently have TSM 5.2 running on a standalone IBM server (7028-6C4/ OS: AIX 5200-02). We need to migrate to a new LPAR on our P590 that runs on OS: 5300-05-CSP. We plan to install TSM 5.4 and use LAN free backup instead of LAN backup. Has anyone of you done this migration in the past and if so is there procedure available. The problem is that we have only 1 robot (IBM 3584/ 10 LTO 3 drives) that is currently used on the old server, so testing will not be that easy.
