This seems to be a contradiction. Is it possible to restore individual files from an

Yes, this is the same as the Instant Archive functionality.
A Backupset is "designed" to restore a complete node,
while an Instant Archive is designed, as the name implies,
to archive data off for a longer period of time.

You will not see a directory structure for a backupset - This is one of the
features that I do not like about backupsets - another is that it is not
automated as far as being able to reclaim the tapes back - you have to
manually keep track of it - Anyway, the following is some help on this:


Restoring Data from Backup Sets

You can restore the files that you backed up to the TSM server from backup
sets. Your TSM administrator creates backup sets from your active files on
the server.

Backup sets are written in a format that can be read directly by the client.
If a backup set is created on a device that is supported by the TSM server
and your client machine, then you can take the backup set volumes to your
client machine and restore your data directly from the locally attached
device. Alternatively, you can restore a backup set directly from the
server.

Examples of supported media devices are: tape, CD-ROM drives, removable disk
drives like JAZ drives and ZIP drives. These tape devices are supported:
DLT, 4mm, 8mm, 3590, and 3570.

Contact your TSM administrator to find out how often backup sets are created
and what devices are supported.

You might want to restore data from backup sets in these situations.

To restore your data from backup sets:


1.   Click the Restore button in the Tivoli Storage Manager window. The
Restore window appears.

2.   Expand the directory tree if necessary. To expand a node in the
tree, click the plus sign (+) next to an object in the tree.

3.   Locate the object in the tree named Backup Sets and expand it.

4.   If you want to restore the data from the backup sets on the server,
expand the Server object. If you are restoring data from a backup set on a
locally attached device, first define the backup set location, then expand
the Local object.


5.   Your backup sets appear in the tree and are grouped by backup set
descriptions. Expand a backup set description to see the backup sets with
that description.

6.   Click the selection boxnext to the backup set that you want to
restore.

7.   Click the Restore button. The Restore Destination window appears.

8.   Fill in the Restore Destination window, then click the Restore
button to start the restore. The Task List window appears showing the
progress of the restore.


 Considerations:

7 Backup sets can contain data from multiple filespaces. If you
specify a restore destination other than the original, all of the data from
all the filespaces will be restored in the specified destination.
7 If you want to change the options for your restore, click the Modify
Restore Options button in the Restore Options window.
7 If you want TSM to estimate the amount of time it takes to process
your files and directories, click the Estimate button. Note: The Estimated
Transfer Time field reads N/A if  no files have ever been sent to or from
the current TSM server.

Re: Reclamation Data Streams

2000-08-15 Thread Joe Faracchio

You can setup discorrdint onsite reclamations with single drives.

What I mean is you start an onsite-Tapepool reclamation that dumps the
tape to a reclamation disk.  after its done you trigger the migration off
that disk and start another tape-dump to a different disk (file) area.
then switch again when both succeed.

that would maximize the use of 2 drives and 2 rec processes.
Unfortuneately you cannot set migproc>1 for reclamation stg pools.
I hope that's a bug Tivoli's addressing.

 and now it doesn't seem to be releasing memory after the backups
 are finished.  We had this problem a couple years ago but it was

Hi -

Just upgraded from TSM client release 3.7.1 to 3.7.2 on an NT 4.0 workstation, and 
noticed some strange goings on

On 8/19 (last incremental under TSM 3.7.1, my machine had 39K files on it, and on that 
day I backed up 106 files - a pretty average day for this particular machine.  I 
skipped a few days of backups, and then today, I ran the first incremental under the 
3.7.2 release.  It told me that I now had 40, 317 files on the machine (approximately 
600 more), but the unusual thing was that it backed up 10K files again, and updated 
another 27K.  Does anyone know why this all took place.  Interestingly, the sum of the 
two numbers does not add up to what was inspected (only 17 files were expired), so it 
didn't touch everything, but it was close.  Additionally, some of the files that were 
backed up were files that haven't been touched sine they were placed on the machine, 
such as the installation packages for NT and Lotus SmartSuite.

If this is normal behavior, I need to know before I plan on a deployment; and if it is 
normal, I am wondering why.  Sort of sounds like a bug.

Restoring file permissions

2000-08-15 Thread Palmadesso Jack

This is probably a dumb question but here goes.

Every couple of months somebody with too much admin priviledge will whack
permissions on an NT server someplace.  Today somebody whacked a whole drive
and set everything to read only.  I was asked if it was possible to restore
just the file permissions instead of the whole file.  Is something like this
possible?  I already told the administrator that he'll have to restore all
of the files but I thought it was an interesting request and would be a nice
feature.

Thanks for any help,

Re: Reclamation Data Streams

2000-08-15 Thread Gary Ison

Greg,

Reclamation is done on a storage pool basis, unlike migration which
can control the number of processes is starts.  Since it is being done on a
pool basis and is trying to reclaim empty space, reclamation will be more
efficient if it uses only a single output volume and multiple input volumes.
It will also eliminate volume contention for files which span volumes used
as reclamation input.  Migration is also node based whereas reclamation is
not necessarily node based (unless the pool is a collocated pool).

We need to find the people who name file systems with the same bases
and remove them from the data processing community.
Anyway, this kind of situation is addressed in the Backup-Archive manual
under Backup: Advanced Considerations.  To wit, you enclose the filespace
name in braces to distinguish it within the file path.  It applies
equally to Archiving.  So you would do like:
  dsmc q archive {/d105/oracle}/ORASHSDA/system02_ORASHSDA.dbf

Re: Cross-Platform Retrieves

Alex,

In short, you cannot restore to different platforms.  You must restore with
the same platform and filesystem as you backed up with.  There are some
exceptions like the FAT filesystem working across the PC world but with Unix
you are going to be stuck restoring back to another HPUX machine.

My soloution would be to restore to the original machine and ftp the data
over to the PC or "other" machine.

Re: SHRDYNAMIC or SHRSTATIC?

2000-08-15 Thread Daniel Swan/TM

You make a very good point, Kelly.. that is, can a file that was backed up
while open be restored successfully?

It comes down to an issue of probabilities.. what are the chances that
backup will be restorable?  What are the chances it won't be?

What policy setting do most of you folks use, and why?

Re: SHRDYNAMIC or SHRSTATIC?

2000-08-15 Thread Kelly J. Lipp

The question isn't can you back up an open file, it's can you restore it and
have it useful?  You must check.  The problem with backing up open files is
you can move a lot of useless data.  If you can't restore it, you might as
well not back it up.

Hello all,

 Is anyone running TSM 3.7.2 on a Netware 5.1 server with NDS 8? We are
testing this version out right now and we notice that when a backup of the
NDS tree is initiated from TSM that cache buffers are used during the
backup but not release until the backup completes. On our test server this
works fine because there are not many objects under the tree but we have
production servers that have millions of objects in the tree. Under Netware
4.11 NDS 6.10 the buffers are allocated and released as the backup runs.

 I am not a Novell support individual but I am being told by our Netware
support staff that this is potentially a major problem. I have an open
incident with IBM/Tivoli on this but I have not had any success in finding
a resolution.

 Any help that you could provide would be appreciated.

 NAV Alert
 NAV Auto-Protect (Stopped for backups)
 Norton Program Scheduler

 As you saying I need to stop all of them, including the "Alert" one. Or

 Isn't there a Norton Device Driver (Control Panel|Services) do you do
anything with that?

for about 2 months on this issue.  After several traces and running

One of the TSM developers gave me a utility to just test the API call

was determined to be "outside the scope of TSM".  All my clients are
virtually identical, this problem started on one client and seemed to
spread to another client every 2 weeks.  About 25% of my clients were
experiencing the problem before we found the cause.

Shutting down all NAV services during the backup is a workaround for my

Re: Base TMS client and SQL backup question

2000-08-15 Thread Del Hoobler

Geoff,

Correct me if I am wrong...but they are referring to
using the BA client, not TDP for SQL (SQL Agent).

TDP for SQL takes online backups of databases.

I think they are trying to take a backup of the SQL databases
by bringing the SQL server down, backing up the database
files with the base client, then restarting the SQL server.
Some folks have the luxury of doing that while others
must have the SQL databases available 24x7 and cannot bring them
down to do an "offline" backup.

Thanks,

Re: Base TMS client and SQL backup question

2000-08-15 Thread Phil Bone

We are using the ADSM SQL Connect Agent (or TSM SQL Data Protection Agents)
to do our backups.  Our DBA's are scheduling and running the backups with
SQL jobs that they have setup through the SQL Enterprise Manager.  Then they
can have the status of the backup jobs emailed to them through SQL Mail.

As far as issuing "net" commands in pre/post, I would assume that at a
minimum you would have to configure the ADSM/TSM "Central Scheduler Agent"
and/or the "Client Acceptor" to run as an NT account with the required
privilege to stop/start services.  Just a guess...

Re: SHRDYNAMIC or SHRSTATIC?

2000-08-15 Thread Leos Stehlik

> Is there a reason not to use SHRDYNAMIC?

Open files are actually "files in use", so part of the file may be loaded in
the real memory, application
which uses this file may do some changes in that file directly in real
memory and then - at some later time -
physically save these chages to the disk, so with backing up open files you
may backup inconsistent, unusable
data.

Try running a vrepair on the affected volumes and then try an incremental. What

Viliam - It is legitimate to use HSM through NFS.  What is supposed to
 happen is for the nfsd on the NFS server to be caused to wait
for the recall to complete and then respond to the NFS client with the
data.  Apparently, HSM on your NFS server system is not causing the nfsd
to wait: instead, it is returning to the NFS client an indication that
the data is wacky and unavailable.  NFS client caching retains this
state information for a certain amount of time, after which it times
out, and your repeated access attempt finally succeeds.
One thing to check is if your NFS client system is hard-mounting
the HSM file system (vs. soft-mounting) so that operations on that
file system are forced to wait for them to complete.  Beyond that,
you'll have to confer with your Digital OS folks for examination of
the problem.

Re: Backupsets appear empty on client

2000-08-15 Thread MacDonald, David DA

"If you want TSM to estimate the amount of time it takes to process your files and 
directories, click the Estimate button."

The Estimate window reported zero files would be restored, however when I ran the 
actual restore, the files started flowing. Weird. 


So it's only possible to restore the entire backupset? 

Is a backupset the same as the "instant archive" functionality I've been hearing 
about? 


Thanks for your help Terry.

Subject: Re: Backupsets appear empty on client


You will not see a directory structure for a backupset - This is one of the
features that I do not like about backupsets - another is that it is not
automated as far as being able to reclaim the tapes back - you have to
manually keep track of it - Anyway, the following is some help on this:


Restoring Data from Backup Sets

You can restore the files that you backed up to the TSM server from backup
sets. Your TSM administrator creates backup sets from your active files on
the server. 

Backup sets are written in a format that can be read directly by the client.
If a backup set is created on a device that is supported by the TSM server
and your client machine, then you can take the backup set volumes to your
client machine and restore your data directly from the locally attached
device. Alternatively, you can restore a backup set directly from the
server.  

Examples of supported media devices are: tape, CD-ROM drives, removable disk
drives like JAZ drives and ZIP drives. These tape devices are supported:
DLT, 4mm, 8mm, 3590, and 3570. 

Contact your TSM administrator to find out how often backup sets are created
and what devices are supported. 

You might want to restore data from backup sets in these situations. 

To restore your data from backup sets:  


1.   Click the Restore button in the Tivoli Storage Manager window. The
Restore window appears.  

2.   Expand the directory tree if necessary. To expand a node in the
tree, click the plus sign (+) next to an object in the tree.   

3.   Locate the object in the tree named Backup Sets and expand it. 

4.   If you want to restore the data from the backup sets on the server,
expand the Server object. If you are restoring data from a backup set on a
locally attached device, first define the backup set location, then expand
the Local object. 


5.   Your backup sets appear in the tree and are grouped by backup set
descriptions. Expand a backup set description to see the backup sets with
that description. 

6.   Click the selection boxnext to the backup set that you want to
restore. 

7.   Click the Restore button. The Restore Destination window appears. 

8.   Fill in the Restore Destination window, then click the Restore
button to start the restore. The Task List window appears showing the
progress of the restore. 


 Considerations:  

· Backup sets can contain data from multiple filespaces. If you
specify a restore destination other than the original, all of the data from
all the filespaces will be restored in the specified destination. 
· If you want to change the options for your restore, click the Modify
Restore Options button in the Restore Options window. 
· If you want TSM to estimate the amount of time it takes to process
your files and directories, click the Estimate button. Note: The Estimated
Transfer Time field reads N/A if  no files have ever been sent to or from
the current TSM server.

HSM file system mounted through nfs

Hi,

I'm trying to use HSM managed file system mounted with nfs on Digital unix.
When I try to work with files through nfs, which are migrated - for example
cp xyz /dev/null, I'm getting error messages like I/O error - readed
incrorect number of bytes, or Device busy. This messages I'm getting
immediately after recall proces has finished. When I run the same command
again, on the second or third time is it OK. Does anyone know where the
problem could be? Could hsm file systems be mounted throug nfs?
Tvoli HSM client is v.3.7.2 installed on Solaris 2.6, VxFS v. 3.3.2.
Mounted through nfs on Digital unix v. 4.0f ( problem is, that HSM client
does not exist on Digital unix).

Re: Volume delete problem...

2000-08-15 Thread Barth, Terry V. (MBS)

Have you tried doing a move data on this tape?

I have often found that if the tape has some sort of damage to it or a
damaged file or a left over fragmented space, that a move data clears this
up - because many of the times, it is not actually data on the tape it is
fragments that were left behind from a previous move data - that is why we
now use reclamation instead of "move data" - but we are still cleaning up
our tape pool and I have found that many of the old tapes still have this
problem - thus, I do a move data and it clears it up. The next time the tape
is reclaimed, I do not run into this problem - not even with the new tape
that it wrote to. :0)

From: Matthew Glanville

I have ran into this problem for both a Copy sequential volume and a
primary random access volume on two different servers!

I placed a call, waiting to hear back from level 2.

Situation: Unable to delete some volumes!

 TSM 3.7.2.1 and 3.7.3.0 on Sun Solaris 2.6 (two of my servers seem to
be affected so far)

Example:  (volume name and server name changed to protect the innocent)

tsm: TSMSERVER> del vol VOL1
ANR2220W This command will delete volume VOL1 from its storage pool after
verifying that the volume containes no data.

Do you wish to proceed? (Yes/No) yes
ANS8001I Return code 13.

tsm: TSMSERVER> q content VOL1
ANR2034E QUERY CONTENT: No match found using this criteria.
ANS8001I Return code 11.

tsm: TSMSERVER> del vol VOL1 discard=yes
ANR2221W This command will result in the deletion of all inventory
references to the data on volume VOL1, thereby rendering the data
unrecoverable.

Do you wish to proceed? (Yes/No) yes
ANS8001I Return code 13.

tsm: TSMSERVER> audit vol VOL1
ANR2310W This command will compare all inventory references to volume VOL1
with the actual data stored on the volume and will report any
discrepancies; the data will be inaccessible to users untile the operation
completes.

Do you wish to proceed? (Yes/No) yes
ANR2209W Volume VOL1 contains no data.
ANS8001I Return code 11.

No strange errors are appearing in the activity log.

I am seeing this on the last tape in an old copy pool, SOMTHING WEIRD: the
tape has a pct utilized of .7, yet there is no data on it...  All other
tapes in that old copy pool were deleted successfully  (we have a different
tape media that we made the new copy to, thats another story...)

I am also seeing this on a different server in 7 volumes in a 15 volume
DISK pool.  I migrated all the data off the disk pool (set hi/lo to 0).
Yet the migration never stopped, the CPU utilization went through the roof
for 1 day.  I tried cancelling it, and it would not.  I then updated the
hi/lo thresholds to the normal 90/70 values and the migration process
stopped.(thankfully)

I Changed the hi/lo back to zero, and the same thing happens, migration
process starts, never finishes, the dsmserv process is using 100% of the
CPU yet no data is being moved.  Database buffer were requests flying by
like mad too... (count is currently at -1,547,995,752 to be exact :)

None of the disks in the pool report ANY data on them.
'q content' on all of them and none are reporting anything back.

HERE'S ANOTHER WEIRD CLUE: when I do a 'q stg f=d' on the disk pool, I see
that Pct Logical is at .8!
I think with empty disk pools the PCT_LOGICAL should be 100%...

I tried 'audit vol' on each one, and I get the same 'volume X contains no
data'

Any ideas?

Actually you only need to stop the services if you are upgrading from an
older install. It should be fine having them running if it is a fresh
install and you are running the wizard. If they are not running the wizard
will ask if you want them started.
When you remmed out the names-pipe connection, did you enable another comm.

 As you saying I need to stop all of them, including the "Alert" one. Or are you

 Isn't there a Norton Device Driver (Control Panel|Services) do you do anything 
with that?

Subject: New Storage Automation product announcement


Dear Storage Administrators:

ProTech is announcing a new product we've developed for automating remote
mirroring of your storage systems using either EMC's SRDF, IBM's PPRC or
Hitachi's XRC products and your existing automation software.

Our product was originally developed for a major global financial
institution who subsequently patented their specific process or
implementation to keep competitors from obtaining the huge savings in time,
money and resources they are experiencing from using our technology.  Let
us provide this same benefit to your organization with your own custom
implementation of our technology.

Our product is designed to tie into your existing storage automation
software and interface with existing Enterprise Systems Management and
Automation software already in use in other parts of your organization.
It's fully portable and will interface with any ESM&A and Storage product.

For more information, please contact us at [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Ask
about the ProTech Business Continuity Automation product or PBCA product.

For more information on our Training or Consulting services, visit our
website at www.protechtraining.com.

Thank you,

Scott McFall

2000-08-15 Thread Matthias Hensel

regarding Disaster Recovery Manager I was told that this product is
announced to be withdrawn at the end of october 2000. Is this true? Will
it not be included in TSM4.1?
