Batch Command and security
Hi guys, I have to build a batch command so a client can query activity log. I thought to do it processing the dsmadmc -id=name -password=password command. As username and password pass in clear text, I think it's better having a specific user in TSM server and rights only to read activity log. Which kind of user have I to set? Thanks in advance Elio

Re: TSM S/390 performance
Hi, TSM controls the use of the DISK pool. The OS sees it as always used by TSM but TSM is writing and overlaying it. The client sends a information on how big the file is that it is about to send. TSM then 'reserves space on the disk pool'. This of course only happens if you are going to disk. I was told it is not an issue if you are going direct to tape. The problem in this case was in the CLIENT CODE for DB2. Whenever I have talked to TSM people about high CPU use and surge like processing they always ask if you have an bad external TDP (or API). In my case it was a bad API that was provided by IBM as a part of DB2. This problem was fixed over a year ago for us.

Re: Two Windows backup questions (repost)
Eric,
The SYSTEM FILES part of the system object only applies to Win2K. This is
a Windows thing, not a TSM thing. Under WIN2K, Microsoft implemented the
concept of system protected files. Win2K keeps a catalog of all the files
it considers system and boot files, and they are flagged as system
protected. Those files are considered part of Win2K system state, and
are all backed up and restored as a set. TSm is just honoring what
Microsoft has implemented for Win2K, and WInNT has NOTHING to do with it.
When you run backups via the scheduler on Win2K, TSM gets the whole
MICROSOFT-DEFINED System state, which includes the system protected
files, plus Active Directory, plus COM+DB, plus Registry, and a bunch of
other stuff, depending on whether it's WIN2K or Win2K pro.
When you run backups via the GUI on Win2K, you must specificially select
SYSTEM OBJECT to get a backup of system state.
YOu can read about this stuff in the TSM 3.7.3 and 4.1 Technical Guide
redbook, Chapter 6. SG24-6110.

Unfortunately that doesn't say that all files are backed up. My Windows NT

Hi Eric,
We did some tests on Windows XP (not 2000). When we
did an incremental backup on a system without a

So I think one can assume that the system object

This is a repost because I did not receive any answer about a week ago.
I have two Windows related questions:
1) When running an incremental, TSM backs up the registry files by
default.
We are soon going to add several Windows 2000 client which use Active
Directory. I read in the manual that Active Directory is part of the
System
Objects which can be backed up using the BACKUP SYSTEMOBJECT command.
So,
if
I'm reading things correctly one has to issue both commands ('dsmc i'
and
'dsmc backup systemobject') for a complete backup?
In my experience the system object is included
in the incremental backup by default
as long as no DOMAIN is specified in dsm.opt

Re: Default management class
Anyone got any thoughts on the differences between a default management class as nominated for each policy domain and the the class_name default as assigned by TSM. There are no differences. They are one and the same. There is no management class named DEFAULT. Rather, files bound to the DEFAULT management class are really bound to the class that is designated as the default management class for that policy domain (STANDARD, in your case). If the default management class changes, then files bound to DEFAULT will be managed by the new designated default management class. Directories are always bound to a specific management class (you should not see DEFAULT for directories); either the one with the longest RETONLY setting or the one you specified via DIRMC. If a different management class becomes the one with the longest RETONLY setting, then directories will be rebound to that management class during the next full incremental backup (except for the ones bound to the DIRMC management class).

Re: TSM SERVER 5.1.5.2
Hot Diggety! David Longo was rumored to have written: 5.1.5.2 has been out about a month or so now. Also that something else isn't broke? There was a major performance bug fixed in 5.1.5.3; we had a really nasty situation where a west coast client was sending data at only 2 Mbps to the east coast server; raw network between the two is up to 32 Mbps as evidenced by ttcp tests between west coast client and other east coast servers on the same subnet. Turns out we needed an efix for the pre-release version of fixed netinet driver in AIX 5.1 (to be bos.net.tcp.client 5.1.0.37 and released next week) to fix the OS perf bug *AND* to also upgrade to 5.1.5.3 from 5.1.5.2. Doing so improved the ITSM network perf from 2 Mbps to 8 Mbps, and raw OS network perf to 32 Mbps. Merely fixing the OS perf bug wasn't sufficient for us.

Re: Client backup verification
A lot of people will say a lot of different things in response to your question BUT... If you schedule a nightly incremental backup, (annd if you retain event status long enough) you can do things like q event * * begind=-7 endd=today from a dsmadmc admin session and see the results (as reported by the clients) for all the scheduled events over the last week. A missed is a big problem but often times a failed can be OK, dependes on what exactly failed... (file might have changed during backup and/or deleted between when tsm built its list of files to backup and actually got around to backing up that specific file...) BUT I like: select node_name,filespace_name as Filespace Name ,cast((backup_end) as varchar(10)) as Date from adsm.filespaces where (cast((current_timestamp-backup_end)day as decimal(18,0))3 ) The above query command, if issued from a dsmadmc session will show you each file space for each client that hasn't ~backed up~ in the last 3 days (may adjust the # ov days by that last ...3) Now what does this really tell you ? It points out file spaces/systems that have been removed from a client.

Re: Virtual Volumes Storage Pools
= On Tue, 10 Dec 2002 09:23:42 +1100, Gordon Woodward [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: Can anyone tell me how you define what storage pools a SOURCE server uses on a TARGET server when doing SERVER to SERVER operations? I've tried looking for the answer in the TSM Admin Guide and searching this list but to no avail. From the perspective of the target server, the source server functions very much like a normal node performing archive operations. Like a portmanteau, this already answers your question, but I'm going to unpack it a bit. :) Currently we have a Primary TSM server and a Backup TSM server, with all backup data on our Primary server being copied across to our Backup server for DR purposes. On the Primary server we have a SERVER type DEVCLASS called OFFSITE which points to our Backup server (as per TSM Admin guide). On the Backup server we have two storage-pools, one diskpool called ARCH-S2S which flows onto a TAPEPOOL called TAPE-S2S. I bet you updated the definition of a copygroup to execute that chage. I bet your ran something like upd copy somedomain somepolicy somemgmt somecopy dest=ARCH-S2S but I bet you didn't run upd copy somedomain somepolicy somemgmt somecopy Type=Archive dest=ARCH-S2S - Allen S.

K-cartridges besides J-cartridges
Hello, AIX 5.1, TSM 4.2.1.19, IBM 3494 library, 3590E-drives At the moment we use about 900 J-cartridges in our library. Is it possible to checkin K-cartridges and use them besides the J-cartridges. During upgrade from our drives from 3590B to 3590E we changed status of our volumes to read-only because of different tracks used on tape. As far as I know is the only difference between J and K the length of the tape, so I guess there will be no problem.

Re: K-cartridges besides J-cartridges
There is a difference between the J and K tapes and the 3590 drives need to support the extended length tapes. If the drives are new there is no problem but older 3590E drives may need an upgrade to support the extended length tapes. Check with your CE.

Re: K-cartridges besides J-cartridges
At the moment we use about 900 J-cartridges in our library. Is it possible to checkin K-cartridges and use them besides the J-cartridges. To bolster Jim Sporer's reply: yes, it is commonly done. We've been doing it for quite a while, largely treating the J tapes a prior generation and so best suited to lesser roles such as store-full-tapes-outside-library, given that lesser capacity makes for the use of more of the limited cells in the library. Output from the 'mtlib' command can distinguish between the two. I have a handy-dandy perl program which invokes the mtlib command via more natural expressions.
