I am trying to perform a restore from a remote node without success.

I am running the command res -fromnode=server1 t:\ e:\(restore location)
-subdir=yes -repl=no

I keep getting the msg no files backed up for t:\. Yet when I issue q backup t:\

Re: Restoring a 3.7.3 database to a 4.1.2 server

2001-01-15 Thread John Naylor

Hi John,
Does not work like that on an upgrade.
You do not restore the database, unlless you are are aborting the upgrade and
going
back to your old version.
You would just start with the "upgradedb" parameter.
Simple process, should all be explained in the quick start manual you should get
with your software upgrade.

That would be catastrophic for us!  How else could we migrate?

2001-01-15 Thread Bruce Mitchell

I'm wondering if anyone has successfully  restored using RMAN from a different TSM 
server. One of our DBA's is attempting  to do this.

Environment :-

Oracle 8.1.6.
TDP for Oracle V.2.1.9 (no we wont  use V2.1.10 because it core dumps on any TSM 
client with cloptsets).
TSM server  version 4.1.2.0
Solaris 2.07

The scenario is as follows : -

Location A contains TSM server xx . Oracle DB yy  and DMSO_NODE zz
So yy backs up to server xx , via TSM client zz ( using  dsm.optora to point to 
server xx in the dsm.sys file)

Location B contain TSM server aa. Oracle  DB bb and DSMO_NODE cc
aa backs up to server bb , via TSM client cc (  using dsm.optora to point to server cc 
in the dsm.sys file)

To restore yy to Node in Location B, my intention for him  (DBA) is to :-

export DSMO_NODE=zz (as known in location A)
export  DSMI_CONFIG=/home/oracle/dsm.optorarest

This opt file points to server xx (location A) in dsm.sys  stanza.

We've set up TDPO.zz password  file.

Will this work or, is there anything else  required?

We want to get a handle on this to perform cross server/cross  client restores, as we 
have a local TSM server per tech suite (of which there  are several), and DBA's want 
to restore Oracle DB's between locations for BCP purposes.

Howto resolve ANR2362E without rebooting the server?

2001-01-15 Thread Joerg Nouvertne

Hi all,

due to missing DB backups, our recovery log exeeded 95%. As a result, some
records of the log got compressed, which prevent a DB backup to occur. The
process stops with the following error:

ANR2362E  command: DATABASE BACKUP IS NOT CURRENTLY POSSIBLE - COMPRESSED LOG
RECORDS EXIST IN THE CURRENT TRANSACTION CHECKPOINT.

Regarding the help, I should issue the command at a later time, however I was
waiting for hours, and had to increase the log to prevent the server from
crashing; but the only way to perform a DB backup was: Rebooting the server:

Does anybody know a way to force the backup, or may be a way to "uncompress"
the compressed part after adding some space to the log?

We are (still) using ADSM 3.1.2.20 on AIX 4.2.1.0.

Thanks in advanced.

You should verify the state of the objects. After the deletion of the files via

If you need the 3.7 version you could try to get the demo version. For

 logical db backup/restore, and a 3.7 CD would not be an issue.

Multiple client nodes on one AIX server

I'm running TSM 3.7.3.8 on AIX 4.3.3.  I have a server which I'd like to

Hey everyone,

I'm the one who originally posted this subject.
I installed 4.1 and applied the 4.1.2 patch.
Then I restored the 3.7.2.database.
My TSM server would't start. I ran an AUDITDB with FIX=NO and got the following 
message:

ANR6646I AUDITDB: Auditing disaster recovery manager definitions.
ANR4210I AUDITDB: Auditing physical volume repository definitions.
ANRD tb.c(775): Column count mismatch for table MMS.Drives - expected 21,
found 16
ANR0101E pvraudit.c(233): Error 18 opening table "MMS.Drives".
ANR4142I AUDITDB: Database audit process terminated in error.

I then tried the FIX=YES option and it still didn't work.

As a last resort I did a DSMSERV UPGRADEDB..
It works fine now!!

Thanx everyone,

Jerry Caupain

Re: q backup

2001-01-15 Thread James Thompson

Keep in mind that drive letters c: d: e: get converted to UNC naming convention.
For example you have Server1 that has done backups of the t: drive. On the TSM
server you will get a filespace of \\Server1\t$ for example. Now you go to a machine
called Restore2. You try to restore the t: drive of Server1 to the c: drive of Restore2.
If you execute the command restore t:\dir c:\dir this gets translated to 
restore \\Restore2\t$ \\Restore2\c$, so what you really need to do is specify explicitly
the UNC naming. Restore \\Server1\t$ \\Restore2\c$.

Skip files on backup restore

With the 3.1 back/rest client there was a "skip"
button that was handy for skipping files as the
process was running. Does this feature not exist with
3.7 or 4.1 GUI, or am I just unable to find it. When
in the GUI the skip button is discussed under help.

Subject:

I'm wondering if anyone has successfully  restored using RMAN from a
different TSM server. One of our DBA's is attempting  to do this.

Environment :-

Oracle 8.1.6.
TDP for Oracle V.2.1.9 (no we wont  use V2.1.10 because it core dumps on any
TSM client with cloptsets).
TSM server  version 4.1.2.0
Solaris 2.07

The scenario is as follows : -

Location A contains TSM server xx . Oracle DB yy  and DMSO_NODE zz
So yy backs up to server xx , via TSM client zz ( using  dsm.optora to
point to server xx in the dsm.sys file)

Location B contain TSM server aa. Oracle  DB bb and DSMO_NODE cc
aa backs up to server bb , via TSM client cc (  using dsm.optora to point to
server cc in the dsm.sys file)

To restore yy to Node in Location B, my intention for him  (DBA) is to :-

export DSMO_NODE=zz (as known in location A)
export  DSMI_CONFIG=/home/oracle/dsm.optorarest

This opt file points to server xx (location A) in dsm.sys  stanza.

We've set up TDPO.zz password  file.

Will this work or, is there anything else  required?

We want to get a handle on this to perform cross server/cross  client
restores, as we have a local TSM server per tech suite (of which there  are
several), and DBA's want to restore Oracle DB's between locations for BCP
purposes.

 TSM device driver (lb) cannot identify library contrloler on tape library
 SUN StorEdge L20 (2 drives, 20 tapes). TSM tape device driver (mt) works
 fine on both DLT 7000 drives. Veritas NetBackup BusinesServer 3.3 software
 installed on the same machine uses library robot and drives without
 failures.

This sounds remarkably similar to the problem I had with my StorageTek L20 -
I assume it's the same thing, since the description matches.  I was trying
to use it with TSM 3.7.3, and it didn't work until I upgraded the code to
3.7.4.  (I posted to the list about it at the time, so you should be able to
find details in the list archive if you want them.)

But the other thing I did was re-install the OS in 32-bit mode.  It could be
worth a try - and if you contact Tivoli about it, they will very likely
suggest doing it.

If that doesn't work, my suggestion is to log a call with Tivoli.  They made
some kind of change between 3.7.3 and 3.7.4 that made it work for me - so
it's possible you might need the same change at the 4.1 level.

Re: Running TSM server as a WIN2000 Service

2001-01-15 Thread France, Don G (Pace)

Firstly, review the doc - mainly, readme files for server install and quick
start book (on the CD and Tivoli web site).

On Win2K, the install procedure should create the service;  all you gotta do
is configure it (Auto start, run as service, use local system account, etc.)
either thru the AdminTools-Services applet, or the TSM Server Utilities.  If
you're using 4.1 or later, you might need to create the service with
dsmcutil;  more typically, Server Utilities, initial configuration, helps a
lot with addressing this and other issues that arise in a Win2K environment.

Backup Exec

2001-01-15 Thread Jacques Butcher

Can Backup Exec be setup in such a way that it sends data off to TSM
without having a storage device locally attached to the server it's running
on? I.e. TSM handles the backup device (library) as well as manage all the
volumes.

Any comments will be greatly appreciated

Archiving

2001-01-15 Thread Christoph Pilgram

Hy everyone,

we are discussing the possibilities of archiving data with TSM or other
products (from NT,UNIX).
Our requirements are to archive data for about 30 years. TSM is in
discussion because we use it already for backup ( and in some cases we use
the archive-command ).
The policy domains for the clients for archiving will be (from my point of
view) totally different to those for backup.

Can anybody share his good (or bad) experience in long term archiving with
whatever kind of library in the background (DVD or tape).

Thanks a lot

Christoph
