Re: AIX client dsmsched.log stopped recording
Hello, The logs are probably being written in a different location. If you don't specify the location of the schedule log and error log in the dsm.sys file it gets created in the tivoli directory where the dsm.sys file is. You need to have the following in the dsm.sys file: dsmschedlogname /xxx/xxx/dsmsched.log dsmerrorlogname /xxx/xxx/dsmerror.log Mark Chuck Lam wrote: Hi, I have an AIX client(4.3.3) backing up to a TSM server running 4.1.4. I noticed the dsmsched.log the dsmerror.log stopped recording since 2/13. The backup is still going on everyday and the client have been rebooted a few times since February. Why the client's log files stopped recording and how can I start it up again? TIA __ Do You Yahoo!?

Getting events formatted better????
Hello, I have been using a q event * * node=* begindate=today-1 enddate=today begintime=08:00 endtime=06:30 format=detailed command for quite a while. I output the info into a web page for Operations staff to read. I am tired of having to move the page to the right to see the status. I've got it so that COMPLETED is green and MISSED is red and other conditions are blue. I can use the select node_name from events . for a different output but I don't like the missing info from the q events command. I am looking for a script that rearranges the columns from the q events command to put the node name first and the status second and whatever order I want the rest. I've tried using awk and while it works I can't get the columns lined up nice and neat. Any help out there for this?? -- -- |Mark Brown| |Operations Supervisor | | | |Networking and Communications Services| |Operations| == |Tel --- 514-398-2321| |Fax --- 514-398-6876| |E-mail --- [EMAIL PROTECTED]| --
Expiration processing question.
Hello, Assume 1 object = 1 file Lets assume I have a node with one partition. The partition called /stuff has 1,000,000 files. I start expiration and it is working on the file system /stuff from the beginning. I cancel the process after it gets to file# 500,000 When I start expiration again I know it starts at the last node and file system BUT DOES IT continue at file # 500,001 or at the file # 1 Mark McGill
I want to delete a second copy pool set of tapes. How do I do it??
Hello, A year ago we switched from 3490 tapes to 3590E tapes. I have alot of tapes in a copypool made up of older 3490 tapes. All the local tapes are 3590E tapes. I moved all the data from local 3490 tapes onto 3590E tapes. I have been copying the 3590E tapes to a new copypool of 3590E tapes and when the copies are finally complete I know I can safely delete the 3490 tapes and the data. I expect to complete all the work in about 2 weeks. Yes, I can wait but Is there a command out there will tell me that I can delete a 3490 tape by knowing that all the data on the older 3490 tape exists on a 3590E offsite tape??

Expiration question??
Hello, I have one primary tape pool and (I won't get into it) and two copy tape pools. Example: I have three copies of a file. The file in the primary pool WILL be expired. when expiration processing gets to it. Does expiration remove AT THE SAME TIME the copies or does expiration have go through each pool? Assuming the primary pool has one million files for all the nodes and only my one file meets expiration does TSM have to search three million records to delete all three instances of my file?? Thanks, Mark Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: What volume is my backup on, at time of restore?
Hello, When I first read this I thought it would simply be easier for TSM to take care of the restore. However, IF, you have a screaming fast server where TSM runs the massive searches, the script could be pretty handy used in the right places. If anyone has one out there I would like to see it also. Mark Brown Jim Taylor wrote: Anyone have a nifty way to find out exactly which volume, specific backed up files are located on.

Getting a batch job to ignore server prompt.
Hello, I have a batch job that used to run quite well on the ADSM 3.1 server. After upgrading to version 3.7 the batch job stopped working.

OS/390 2.4 to 2.6 and TSM 3.7 performance.
Hello, We will be upgrading our os/3909 2.4 system to 2.6 to take advantage of the newer tcp/ip stack that will hopefully improve TSM backup/restore transfer rates. The best I've seen here using a unix 3.7 client to the tsm 3.7 server running on os/390 was about 1.5 KB/sec (aggregate). We have a 100 MB connection to our network.

Re: SCRIPTS FOR failed/missed backups
In this case there is know way except to run the script many times in given time frame. I set my script up in a way for the operator on duty to track the missed or started nodes using q sess commands. MISSED means a failure STARTED means look at the server log to see when it ended.

Really bad performance for a sql query after upgrading to v 3.7
Hello, We are currently running TSM Version 3, Release 7, Level 3.6 on OS/390. We upgraded from version 3.1. On the 3.1 version I used to run a select command to show me how many tapes each node was using. Here is the select command: select node_name, count (distinct volume_name) as Numvols from volumeusage - where stgpool_name='TAPEMCO' group by node_name order by Numvols desc tapem.txt This select used to take about 45 minutes to run on the 3.1 version but now this select command simply grinds the server to a halt. I eventually have to cancel adsm to recover the server. Is there something about the 3.7 version or my select command that would cause this kind of problem. If the command takes 2 hours to run then that is fine but I can't have the server slowed down so much that I cannot do other things. -- Mark Brown Operations Supervisor = Tel --- 514-398-2321 Fax --- 514-398-6876 E-mail --- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
