Re: True statement???
definitely NO (if you are not talking about NT v0.357 :) You can have more interfaces limited by number of slots and maximum number of particular adapter combinations supported by the HW platform/drivers/OS. TSM does not deal with SCSI direct but through OS and drivers. NT 4 does not limit to only two buses (actually it treates IDE also as SCSI so in desktop PC with SCSI adapter you already can have 3 interfaces).

Re: Dynamic allocation of FC Ultrium drives ... Is it possible ?
From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of PAC Brion Arnaud I would like to know if it is possible to share directly attached FC Ultrium drives in a 3584 library, between multiple TSM servers, without using the 3584 library sharing feature. This would mean a dynamic drive allocation, same style as DDS feature in Legato's Networker. Mark Stapleton responded: Yes. The TSM server that is attached to the library can be a managing server, while the remote TSM server can be managed. It's not exactly true library sharing; it's more like the managing server honoring a request from the managed server to run data to tape. I have tested a similar configuration, but using an ADIC Scalar 10k instead of a 3584. I found that using 3 TSM servers works better than 2. Make the library manager just manage the drives, and do nothing else. The reason I did this was the way mount limits work on the managing server. A drive allocated by the library manager to a library client can (at times anyway), show up as allocated on both the library manager and the library client servers - it's not actually in use on both servers at once, but it counts against the mount limits on both servers. I found it simpler to just set up a separate server as the library manager.

Re: Library Sharing
I'm not sure what is meant by library sharing here. the way I know it is kind of like Mark here says: you can share a 3584 in the sense that, since the library has multiple control paths you can partition it between heterogeneous OSs (which is what you cannot do with the 3583, being that single path) and assign different drives to different TSM servers who can all manage the robotics. in an homogeneous env. one TSM server is the owner of the robot (or medium changer, call it what you will) and the others request tape mounts to the TSM Library Manager, then will send data through the FC path to the drives (if we're talking Fibre here).

Re: AW: server-to-server copy-pools
Not exactly. Keep in mind that for target server the source one is just a node of type server. So it depends on domain settings source server node resides in to which primary pool virtual volumes go. And how many mount points you have there. Also you may want more than one mount points in copy pools so generic formula for mount limit will not be count of copy pools but sum of desired mount points in pools. Look what Karel wrote.

Re: management class question?
filespaces as a whole, aren't bound to a managmement class... I would check the include/exclude file and see how it is coded. Also remember, if you change the include/exclude list, that will apply it to all files previously backed up so the include/exclude list would be the place to look. an example could be ... include /home/.../* some_default_mgmt_class (or nothing here at all) exclude /home/Idontlikethisuser/.../* include /home/mysubdir/.../* some_special_mgmt_class include /home/someotherdirpath/.../* some_minimal_mgmt_class ...

Re: Tsm client 5.1 fails to restore tsm 4.1 client backups ??
remember, the general way the ~supported environment matrix~ works is client down one version.release from server client equal to server client ahead one version.release from server so the 4.1 client to a 5.1 server would place the whole environment so it falls outside the support matrix (ie, all bets off) but when you took the client to 4.2, that put it back into a slot in the ~support matrix~ I don't think we could call this specific case a bug since (due to their support matrix) that combination probably isn't tested and for sure isn't supported. sorry, I hated to say that...

TSM Encryption, Again :)
Hi everyone. For those who don't remember this discussion a few months ago here is some update. A few months ago we had a chance to offer TSM to one of the largest company here. Soon it became obvious that security where a large concern to them. They asked a lot of Encryption questions witch we couldn't answer right away. So there where some long and helpful discussions about this issue here on adsm.org. we gave them the information they wanted and they agreed to take TSM as there Backup system. I would like to thank you who answered the pervious posts, a lot of our success and win are because of your help and ideas. Now the implementation is well on it's way. The Security team has been reading up on the security issue in TSM, they have found that the 56 bit DES encryption protocol isn't good enough for them. They want to have 3 DES or AES. They are willing to implement it them self to TSM if Tivoli will let them. I have one question for you geniuses out there. Are there any others who need this kind of security out there?

Well, it took 1 hour 45 minutes to scan 12,987 files on that node. Only 29 changed and needed backing up. So, it took 47.07 seconds to backup up those 20 files which changed, but the bulk of the time was still the incremental checking of all your files to see if they had changed. Rob L.

checking inclexcl syntax
Greetings, friends and comrades! Can you please help me confirm that I have my include/exclude list set up correctly? I am using TDP for Informix 4.1.3 with TSM API 4.2.2.1. My DBA's want to do 1 level0 backup on the weekend, and 1 level1 backup during the week. They want to keep a month's worth of each. Of course we also need to backup the logs. I have created a management class for the logs whose backup copygroup has VerExists=1, VerDeleted=0, RetExtra=30, RetOnly=30 (I know, some redundancy there, but I am occasionally paranoid :). I created a management class for the dbspaces with VerExists=4, VerDeleted=1, RetExtra=30, RetOnly=30. The informixserver is named inf2 and the servernum is 2. Since the inclexcl evaluates from the bottom up, I put it like this: exclude /var/adm/schedule.log include /inf2/inf2/.../* db_dbspace include /inf2/inf2/2/* db_log If I understand the documentation correctly, that should find the log files and assign them to the db_log management class. The dbspaces (assuming we don't have one named 2) should be trapped by the next line, and get assigned to db_dbspace. I will run some tests, of course, but before I get very far I wanted to check with people who may have done this before. Thanks! Kai.
Re: 5.1 Database Restore; External Library Manager
Did you issue a backup devconfig command from a admin session with your server ? ? ? I would think that would put all required info into the devconfig file... I have an admin schedule that performs that on a daily basis across all my tsm servers. try a rename of your devconfig and issue the backup devconfig and see if that puts all the info into the file.

With 5.1 TSM, external libraries are supported using DEFINE PATH. Well, the result of DEFINE PATH does NOT put EXTERNALMANAGER=blah in the devconfig file. What this means is that if you NEED to restore your 5.1 TSM database, you must manually edit the devconfig file and add the EXTERNALMANAGER=blah parameter to the DEFINE PATH.

Rafael, Do you backup the databases to tape or disk? If tape, check to make sure the TSM server can mount a tape. Also, what does your dsm.opt look like? Any Excludes? Are you running the incremental from a script? If so, do you pipe the output to a log file or just leave it at the default domdsm.log file? Check the log for messages.

Re: management class question?
select node_name,filespace_name,class_name from backups where node_name='NODE' and filespace_name='FSNAME'. Node has to be all UPPER CASE and filespace_name may be all UPPER or mixed depending on platform etc. This can give long display if lot of files in filespace, I think there is a SQL way to shorten but this will give you the basics.

Re: The old SCRATCH TAPE NOT FOUND message
Rob, Based on your comments and log output it appears you have one or two problems. In your command (BACKUP DB dev=Ultrium1 type=INCREMENTAL scratch=YES wait=NO) you are specifying that the DB backup use a scratch tape. By specifying the use of a scratch tape the server must use a scratch tape, it will not use the tape it used a few days ago unless that DB backup tape has already expired which would be unlikely. So you need two things for success here. An ample supply of scratch tapes and an available tape drive. Hope this helps! Greg P.

Re: Dump file backup for MS SQL server
I'm trying to back up only 4 dump files from MS SQL server through TSM 3.7. When the client scheduler started, there was an error message 'protocol violation...' I checked TCP/IP setting and it looked OK. My question: Did this happen because I didn't install TDP for MS SQL? We thought there wouldn't be a problem to back up only a few dump files generated by SQL server. Should I install TDP on SQL sever in order to back up ANY files from that server? I have sometimes fixed this kind of problem by manually resetting the TSM password. I used the 'update node' command from a dsmadmc session to inform the TSM server of the new password. I then logged on to the client system and executed a 'dsmc query backup' command. The command prompted me for the new password and stored the new password (we use 'passwordaccess generate').

q libv showed 'private' STATUS but blank LAST_USE
TSM 4.1.4 running in AIX 4.3.3 After I came back from the Memorial weekend, I noticed a bunch of tapes with 'private' Status but blank Last_Use when I did a 'q libv'. 'q vol volume_name' on these tapes returned with 'NO MATCH'. There were problems with one of the tape drives over that weekend and a lot of tapes were marked as 'UNAVAILABLE' by TSM, but I was able to make them work again by modifying the access=readwrite. However, I cannot even 'q volume' this bunch of tapes, since TSM seemed to lose track of them. Can anyone help me with this problem? TIA __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: q libv showed 'private' STATUS but blank LAST_USE
If TSM tried to pull them from scratch to private to use in a pool, and the drive problem happened, then TSM will mark them as Private as to not use them as scratch again. If this is the case, you can just update them back to scratch - update libvol libraryname volumename stat=scratch for each tape. This behavior is the same as marking an already in use tape as Unavailable. Nick Cassimatis [EMAIL PROTECTED] Today is the tomorrow of yesterday.

Deleting a portion of a filespace
Hi All, Client version: 4.2.1.0 Client OS: Solaris 5.6 Server OS: Solaris 8 TSM Server Version: 4.2.1.15 We have a NFS mounted NetApp filer that retains their critical data. The data is is library with a number of different subdirectories for each project. They require we keep all data forever until they specify it may be deleted. They've asked us to set up verexists and verdeleted . Being TSM views the mount /data as one filespace, I'm wondering if we can purge a portion of that filespace when they approve it. For example a subdirectory may be /data/mars02lib/... After the project has been terminated they would like us to delete the mars02lib but still retain all of the other libraries under /data. Any suggestions/advice would be highly appreciated. Thanks! Luke Dahl NASA-Jet Propulsion Laboratory 818-354-7117

Re: data tansfer time ???
Not long ago, I have the same question about the definition of this term and here's the answer: Data Transfer Time - the total time it takes to send the total backup data from TSM client to TSM server over the network. *** My understanding of this definition is : client process will read data from disk into I/O buffer, then from I/O buffer to TSM server through the network. When TSM server receive these data, it will send a ACK packet back to the client. When the client receive the ACK packet from TSM server, then it will read the next segment of data from disk to I/O buffer. === Data Transfer Time is the total sum of time that the client send the data to server through network including the time it receive the ACK packet but exclude the time to fetch the next batch of data into the I/O buffer. Network data transfer rate - the rate that TSM client send the data over the network to TSM server. *** My understanding of this definition is : the total amount of data send to TSM server divided by the data transfer time Thanks Regards William
Re: Can't do reclamation
Hi Max, Is this all the volumes in this storage pool? At first glance it would seem that you have no scratch tapes available to perform reclamation with.
