Re: Global Exclude
Fred, CLOPTSETs are SERVER SIDE filters. The guys who install TSM client on desktop do not need to know if you have filters or not. I don't understand your pb. I see two solutions 1) you define a huge CLOPTSET for all your platforms (NT,UNIXes, Mac) and all your nodes are attached to this cloptset. Only mathing rules for the concerned platform will be applied, but processing time will be longer... 2) you define a CLOPTSET for each platform (like me). Processing time will be short. Moreover if you user the flag FORCE=YES, your server rules will override those potentially defined by your install-guys / users.

The problem is that the people who install the clients ignore it, even when it's in the same folder as the client code on our distribution machine. Over a thousand of my 1500+ clients are Windows or Mac desktops, and half or more have incomplete inclexcl lists. I can have someone write some code that will build a CLOPTSET that contains my minimum list and attaches it to all appropriate clients as well as updating all existing CLOPTSETs to include my list. But if there is another way to do it, a central list that defaults for the entire system, I'd rather go with that.

TSM SNMP Management
Dear all, to be able to monitor the TSM and our 3494-Library with Netview (SNMP-based) I'm looking for MIB's of these components. We have already implemented the adsmserv.mib but in addition to this we need a MIB called ibm2100.mib and a MIB for the IBM 3494-Library. Do you have information on that?

AW: Storage Pools
Hi Tom, you leave us in darkness what your offsite pool exactly is. If it is a backup storage pool of your onsite pool, then yes, deleting onsite files will delete offsite files as well. Seems like what you want to accomplish is simply effectively turn co-location on, for new and for existing data. There are simple ways to achieve this, like following: - update the storage pool concerned to be co-located - be sure you have reasonably much free tape volumes in it - tape by tape, move data from existing volumes back either into same storage pool, or in the originating primary disk storage pool. You will not loose a single file and you will end with collocated tapes. regards Juraj Salak -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Berning, Tom [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet am: Freitag, 18. Mai 2001 20:41 An: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Betreff: Storage Pools I am currently running ADSM 3.1.2.50 and will be converting to TSM 4.1. The question I have is my boss would like to keep all of the data that is currently on our offsite copy pool and on our onsite archive pool. What he want is to destroy the onsite migration pool, then start new backups of all of the systems and migrate them to the onsite migration pool using co-location. My question is if we delete all of the migration pool tapes and discard the data will it also remove the data from the offsite copy pool tapes or will they remain in tact in case something needs to be restored from that pool? We want to do this right after we convert from ADSM to TSM. Thanks in advance for any responses. Thomas R.

Re: dsmc incremental terminated with error on AIX
I get the follwing output when I start an incremental Backup session ... The assert subroutine failed: poolP-incSize 0, file mempool.cpp, line 719 Clemens - The client programmer wisely wrote the C software using the assert macro, to detect out-of-range array references and bad pointers. How to deal with it is the challenge. I'd first look to see if your client is memory-constrained, as being short on memory tends to cause many peculiar problems with software in general. Beyond that you could contact Tivili Support to see if this is a known problem with the TSM client. But you may be running into the 4.1-3.1 compatibility problems you fear. Sorry, one more question.

(As I understand from their explanation, there is the TSM server side module and the client module). So in effect, we cannot impliment BRM due to this factor. Does anyone know if this is true ?

Re: Recovery Log
If roll forward mode is not being used, the cause is probably a long transaction in the ADSM database. The exact transaction can be determined with show commands, but it is not easy at all. The easiest way is to look at the oldest running sessions and see which one has been backing up one file or Dbspace for the longest time. 3.2.41 and over Server levels also have an issue when nothing is running the log sometimes will not clear.

question about TSM 4.1.3 v.s LTO 3581
I upgraded my TSM server from 4.1 to 4.1.3 and I attached LTO 3581 to TSM 4.1.3 I encountered problems in restore my files. (1.) There was nothing happened after I entered restore command . I use q act and I got the log as follows: GENDRV_TAPE0 (\\.\TAPE0) is in use I use q mount and I got the log as follows: ANR8329I LTO volume TP1 is mounted R/W in drive GENDRV_TAPE0 (\\.\TAPE0), status: IDLE. 05/21/2001 19:28:30 ANR8334I 1 volumes found.

Re: BRM Question
I believe the BMR server is only supported on an HP, AIX, or Solaris platform (Unix). You will need a Unix machine to support BMR.

To cut things short, one of the options we required was Bare Metal Restore of NT and Unix servers. Our TSM server sits on an NT server.

Re: SAN Data Gateway
I have experience with McData (rather than Brocade) SAN equipment, but my first guess would be a ZONING issue within the SAN software on the Brocade switch. Our 2108's know nothing about what kind of equipment our SAN has. In fact, our 2108's, our IBM Shark, and all of the individual Fibre Channel clients are all completely unaware of the McData equipment in the middle. All they see is the SCSI equipment at the other end (in their zone). Some servers see disk (from the Shark), some see tape drives (from our LTO library), and our TSM server sees both.

database backup
Hello all, I currently do on-disk db backups (to a file devclass) of my relatively small (2 gb) database. Full on Saturday, incrementals Sun-Fri. I keep 2 weeks of backups on disk. I need to start implementing an offsite stgpool. Instead of wasting a 100gb LTO tape for the db, i'm thinking about just tarring the on-disk backup to a DDS3 drive. I'll also put vol history and devconfig on the DDS3 tape, and send it offsite with the LTO tapes.. I think it'll be a very long time before the db exceeds the 12gb capacity of DDS3. Anyone see any problems/gotchas with sending the db offsite this way?

Re: database backup
Why don't you just define your DDS drive as a device in TSM. That way cut out the extra step. I currently back up the DB during the day (when TSM is for the most part Idle) and backup my OS and config files at night to another tape. That way in the event I lose the TSM server I can get it back online with two tapes. Just define the DDS tape drive as a Manual Drive and your all set. One pit fall in AIX is that you can't have the Unix and Tivoli drivers both set as available at the same time. so I leave the Unix driver as defined in Unix and switch it to available to do the OS backup.

Re: database backup
OK, I can't say what the DDS3 drive is off the top of my head but if it is something you would have an a potential disaster recovery TSM server, sure it will work... ALSO based on the size of the file dumped to disk, you could always ftp it somewhere else... AND if you have yet another tsm server somewhere, you could back that file up over on the other tsm server. We have moved a tsm environment by backing the db up to disk, ftp'ing the file over to a new server and doing the restore from that ftp'ed file. I JUST LOVE THIS PRODUCT !

How to restore a volume ?
What is the correct procedure of Deleting a volume (such as DLT ) and restoring it back on a new volume with same number ? I'm running into a media fault problem on one of the DLT's while the weekend offsite task is running. The library loads this volume and at one point it detects media fault on that DLT and task stops there and goes in the loop. I would like to delete this volume and get the data back on a new DLT.

TDP 3.1 for SAP R/3
I installed TDP 3.1 for SAP R/3 and I have seemingly had an unending amount of problems with it. When installing it the install failed with not enough space even though when we checked everything according to the docs it would. We had to turn off compression because a backup that used to take 3 hours is now taking 20+. After we turned off compression the backups were 5-6 hours. Now I am checking things out on the Administrative Assistant and the backups all say they have failed even though every log we can find says successful. Are we just cursed or has anyone else had these problems? Becky Davidson Data Manager/AIX Administrator EDS/Earthgrains voice: 314-259-7589 fax: 314-877-8589 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The library loads this volume and at one point it detects media fault on that DLT and task stops there and goes in the loop. I would like to delete this volume and get the data back on a new DLT. If you have a Copy Storage Pool, what you want to do is a Restore Volume. Lacking that, do Move Data to get as much data off as can be recovered, repeating on as many drives as you have to make a maximal recovery attempt. Beyond that you have no in-server backups of the data and may have to consider it lost. You may want to consider software and/or firmware updates to deal with the loop situation if it really is that. (It may simply be time being taken by the drive to try to re-read the data, making its best effort to retrieve the information.) Richard Sims, BU

Our 2108's know nothing about what kind of equipment our SAN has. In fact, our 2108's, our IBM Shark, and all of the individual Fibre Channel clients are all completely unaware of the McData equipment in the middle. All they see is the SCSI equipment at the other end (in their zone). Some servers see disk (from the Shark), some see tape drives (from our LTO library), and our TSM server sees both.

An AIX server is connected through a brocade SAN switch to the SAN Data Gateway. Connected to this Gateway are 4 LTO devices. We seem to have installed the 2108-G07 ok , but nevertheless the LTO drives can not be seen from the AIX server !!? any ideas ?? Does this brocade switch needs to be identified on the SAN Data Gateway (via StorWatch - SAN Data Gateway Specialist software) and the AIX server as well ??? any additional comments ?? thanks in advance Ruud van Ruler, Shell Services International BV - ISES/31 Our Central Data Storage Management home page: http://sww2.shell.com/cdsm/ Room 1B/G01 Dokter van Zeelandstraat 1, 2285 BD Leidschendam NL Tel : +31 (0)70 - 3034644, Fax 4011, Mobile +31 (0)6-55127646 Email Internet: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Port Number question
Currenlty we do a dbbackup to local DLT media on week days and on the week-end it is done to another remotely located server. I would like to do the backup remotely everyday however bandwidth is a problem. We now have a capability to cap the bandwidth usage to ensure that the dbbackup does not have a negative effect on normal business traffic. However the capping is based upon either or both the IP addresses and ports. Does anyone know if the server to server communication uses a dedicated port (37 712) or a range etc etc? I do not want to restrict any other TSM traffic. Peter Griffin Sydney Water

I have downloaded the client packages and installed the client, then changes the dsm.opt files and started the services on NT. The client is working file, which means if I go to client and start backup from GUI of from command line it's working OK. But the automatic schedule is not working, it means I have created policy and schedule and assign it to that client, the schedule stays in pending mode and it does not execute till it failes. I'm getting this error in dsmsched.log. this might not be related to this problem, but anyway.. 05/20/2001 14:36:11 ANS1818E Schedule function not allowed in loop mode. Salam - Loop mode usually refers to invoking the command line client as 'dsmc LOOP', or more simply, 'dsmc', which is to say Interactive Mode. Most likely, this message resulted because the client schedule was defined in the server without operands to make it a useful schedule. Review your client schedule definition in the server according to the action that you really want it to perform, and use Update Schedule to adjust. Richard Sims, BU
