Re: Restart TSM Client on Windows 2000
This can be actioned by the following :- Select Start button ( bottom left hand corner on your Win2000 Server ) Programs Admin istrative Tools Services Within Services you will see TSM Client Acceptor ( right click it and then you can start the Service ) This should be started and the Startup Type should be set to Automatic. Also there should be Remote Client and the TSM Scheduler these should both be in a Manual state. Hope this helps Thanks ...

Re: TDP for Oracle Errors
Hi All. On these case, I suggest to use tdposync to sync both catalogs: Oracle catalog and tdp database. So, I have to say that tdposync not always works fine, because, sometimes gives an incorrect information about the backupieces deleted on oracle catalog and NOT deteled on TSM database. It is the only way to repair inconsistences between both catalogs. I would like to make a call to IBM development team to improbe much more this usefull utility. I hope they hear me Regards. Juanma.

Por favor, responda a ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviado por:ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] Destinatarios:[EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: Asunto:Re: TDP for Oracle Errors Eric, Oracle 9i introduced the concept of autobackups for the control file. During the autobackup process, Oracle dynamically generates the backuppiece name for the control files that are being saved. During this backup processing, a unique name is generated by Oracle prior to backing it up and the TSM Server is then checked to ensure that this backuppiece name does not exist. When performing this check for any existing objects that might have this name, Oracle will first try to delete this file regardless of whether it exists or not. The return code from the deletion process not finding the object on the TSM Server is the ANU2602E message. During the autobackup processing, Oracle calls the Media Management Layer (Data Protection for Oracle/TSM Server in this case). Oracle issues the command to attempt a deletion prior to autobackup of the control file. Because each MML operation is a unique and distinct session, the MML has to treat each delete the same. In other words, Oracle gives no hints as to the type of deletion being performed therefor Data Protection for Oracle just attempts the delete. From Data Protection for Oracle's point of view a file not found during a delete could be a potentially serious error. For example: - During the delete the user is actually using a TSM filespace name that is different than what the objects were originally backed up under. - The TSM node does not have the backup delete permissions (backdel=yes|no). - During the deletion a different TDPO_NODE is specified than what was used during backup. The reason that these are potentially dangerous is that when Data Protection for Oracle detects an error during delete that a file is not found or cannot be deleted Oracle specifies that the MML does not return an error to Oracle. This causes a situation where during normal deletion Oracle would remove the backuppiece name from it's catalog but the backup could still exist on the TSM Server there by using up unnecessary storage space. Unfortunately, unless we ignore this error altogether then there is nothing that we (developement) can do. In the mean time the only tips we can give to work around these error messages during autobackups is for the user to do the following: Use the DISABLE EVENTS command on the TSM Server to suppress all ANU0599 ANU2602E messages so there would be no notification when a the file is not being found during DP for Oracle processing. For the tdpoerror.log, a different DSMI_LOG could be specified (in the tdpo.opt file) for the autobackup so that the errorlog would go to a different directory - in this way these logs could be monitored separately. -- Date:Tue, 4 Nov 2003 16:28:55 +0100 From:Loon, E.J. van - SPLXM [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: TDP for Oracle Errors Hi *SM-ers! Our Oracle guys and girls are currently testing DP for Oracle 5.2 on Oracle 9i. They turned one a new RMAN feature for automated controlfile backup (for those of you interested, the command is 'configure controlfile autobackup on;') Now, whenever a controlfile backup is running it generates the following error in both the tdpoerror.log and the actlog: ANE4994S (Session: 1437562, Node: KL1003VC-ORC) TDP Oracle AIX ANU0599 ANU2602E The object /mount/appl1//c-213141136-20031104-0e was not found on the TSM Server We had to make a trace to see that this error is generated because TSM first checks whether the object exists on the server before allocating it. I created a PMR for this behavior and level 1 now says: works as designed, just suppress ANE4994S from the actlog (impossible since ANE4994S is a generic message) and build something yourself to clear your tdpoerror.log periodically. I find this a VERY disappointing reply from IBM Has anybody encountered this behavior to and maybe found a better way to solve these errors? Maybe someone from development listening on this list has a good suggestion? I'm really stuck here with the Dutch level 1 support... :-(( Kindest regards, Eric van Loon KLM Royal Dutch Airlines Regards, Neil Rasmussen Software Development Data Protection for Oracle [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The copystgpool parameter works on another stgpool we have. The storage agent has not been zoned to see any drives at the offsite location, I thought the TSM server would handle the data transfer to the copystgpool internally without any use of the storage agent.

Re: TDP for Oracle Errors
Hi Neil! Thank you VERY for your reply! If I suppress this message from the actlog I will never see this message. I can think of situations where I do want to see them, for instance, when a database restore fails because object are not found on the server. I admit, this kind of situation should never happen, but if it does, I would like to see these messages... I guess I have to look for a way to adjust my daily report scripts so the messages are filtered... You also stated: For the tdpoerror.log, a different DSMI_LOG could be specified (in the tdpo.opt file) for the autobackup so that the errorlog would go to a different directory - in this way these logs could be monitored separately. This would be true if the autobackup was a separate process, however, the autobackup of the controlfiles is part of a full or incremental backup, so I don't see a way to route the controlfile backup messages to another file.

They turned one a new RMAN feature for automated controlfile backup (for those of you interested, the command is 'configure controlfile autobackup on;') Now, whenever a controlfile backup is running it generates the following error in both the tdpoerror.log and the actlog: ANE4994S (Session: 1437562, Node: KL1003VC-ORC) TDP Oracle AIX ANU0599 ANU2602E The object /mount/appl1//c-213141136-20031104-0e was not found on the TSM Server We had to make a trace to see that this error is generated because TSM first checks whether the object exists on the server before allocating it. I created a PMR for this behavior and level 1 now says: works as designed, just suppress ANE4994S from the actlog (impossible since ANE4994S is a generic message) and build something yourself to clear your tdpoerror.log periodically. I find this a VERY disappointing reply from IBM Has anybody encountered this behavior to and maybe found a
Re: lan free and copystgpool parameter
The copy storage pool parameter is not supported for lan-free data transfers. See the readme.txt that comes with your TSM server/storage agent. It is strongly recommended that customers religiously read each new TSM Technical Guide redbook as it appears, to both fully learn of new features and avoid a lot of wasted time in trying to utilize new operands without the full perspective of what's involved and restrictions surrounding them.

Veritas Volume Mgr./TSM
Has anyone been successful in setting up Veritas to control the disk for your TSM server? This is the second time we have tried it now and it totally degrades performance on our backups. The last time we tried, we assumed it was the size of our disk volumes because they were extremely large.We just tried it again last night with 42 GB volumes. Now I am sitting here with our backups still running and the users are not happy! Environment: Solaris 8, Sunfire 880, TSM Server 5.1.7.3, clients - various levels of ver. 5, Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Include/exclude not working
Thanks much, Andy! I am glad that I asked the question, although it is very stupid one. I did read the user manual again. It seems that the DOMAIN is for defining 1) drives, (I just assumed the entries shown in my domain list window which mostly are directories could be used as domain objects.) or 2) share names which could be used to a directory (authentic shared one or not (cheating)). I do have a network shared directory needs backup on the d drive of the machine where TSM client resides. I will think this directory can be defined as share name. Am I correct? My question is that is net share inetpub=g:\inetpub a command line or I can put it into opt file? Lan Lan Wu-Cavener Dept. of Landscape Architecture PennState

Re: Include/exclude not working
Lan, The net share command I mentioned has nothing at all to do with TSM. Rather, it is a Windows command that you can issue from an OS prompt on the machine to which the directory is local (i.e. the machine that contains the g:\inetpub directory). You may wish to engage your Windows system administrator(s) for further assistance. The command I gave was just an example.

Hi Mehdi! You can download Dp for Exchange 5.2.1 at ftp://ftp.storsys.ibm.com/tivoli-storage-management/maintenance/tivoli-data- protection/ntexch/v521/nt/ but I doubt you will not be able to use it.

Mehdi, If you have a paid PD of a previous version 2.2 or 5.1.5, you can install it first... so that you get the paid license on your machine.. then install the 5.2.1 PTF package over the top of it. That will work. You will then be able to back up your Exchange 2003 server.

TSM Server upgrade and client inter-operability
I finally got onto the IBM ftp servers and can download the server/client upgrades. What I'm wondering about is client/server version compatibility and licensing. We have v5.1.0 server. If I'm looking at it correctly, I should be able to upgrade that to the most recent version of 5.1, i.e. we have a license for any 5.1.x. Am I correct here? I have a few Linux machines to backup (Redhat 9). They fulfill the requirements of the client (2.4 kernel, glibc 2.2 etc), so I'm looking at the 5.1.6 client. But my server is only at 5.1.0. Now, I THINK it would work fine, but given the number strange problems I've read about (e.g. session table never works right kind of problems) I'd rather get some actual feedback from people with experience with this kind of setup. Recap -- Given that we bought 5.1.0(LATEST is 5.1.8) server for Windows, what level can I upgrade to with my current license? What problems/issues will I face if I upgrade? DB compatibility etc. Gotcha's? Best client version for Linux Redhat9 to backup to said server (5.1.0 or 5.1.8 server), client versions 5.1.0 - 5.1.6. sim

Re: TSM Server upgrade and client inter-operability
Hi, We have v5.1.0 server. If I'm looking at it correctly, I should be able to upgrade that to the most recent version of 5.1, i.e. we have a license for any 5.1.x. Am I correct here? Correct. I have a few Linux machines to backup (Redhat 9). They fulfill the requirements of the client (2.4 kernel, glibc 2.2 etc), so I'm looking at the 5.1.6 client. But my server is only at 5.1.0. Now, I THINK it would work fine, but given the number strange problems I've read about (e.g. session table never works right kind of problems) I'd rather get some actual feedback from people with experience with this kind of setup. Linux clients 4.1.x true 5.1.5.x on tsmserver 5.1.x didn't give me that problem. Recap -- Given that we bought 5.1.0(LATEST is 5.1.8) server for Windows, what level can I upgrade to with my current license? What problems/issues will I face if I upgrade? DB compatibility etc. Gotcha's? You are able to upgrade within the 5.1.x range. Read the supplied readme's of the serverlevel to see what kind of problems you are have and is solved in that level. The easy answer is: Go to the highest level in you range, it solves a lot of problems. The small letters are: New levels introduce new or sometimes old problems. I think you should at lest be at 5.1.7.x server level and client level 5.1.5.x. Best client version for Linux Redhat9 to backup to said server (5.1.0 or 5.1.8 server), client versions 5.1.0 - 5.1.6. sim Regard, Karel

Macintosh OS X include/exclude domain list
Greetings, TSM Server 5.1.6.2, AIX 5.1 Mac OS X 10.2 TSM Mac OS X client 5.2.0.0 I'm trying to exclude the Macintosh HD domain and backup only one folder from the drive. The GUI is not very cooperative in Edit Preferences. Documentation says : DOMAIN -Macintosh HD: in TSM User Preferences should exclude my Mac HD. Then in TSM System Preferences, I want to include a certain folder. However, I am having trouble getting the GUI to choose the folder and add an include statement to the System Preferences. Assuming the folder is Documents, what would be the syntax? Below? include Macintosh HD:Documents:...:* I can't get this to be added through the GUI, but can BBEDIT the Preferences files. Any assistance is appreciated. Regards, John
device class mount point mixed library (DLT7000 and SDLT320)
Hello, I've posted a question a few weeks ago about DLT7000 drives and SDLT320 drives in the same library (Storagetek L180). IBM said that the mixed drives are supported in the same library. The TSM server is 5.2.1.2 on Windows2000. I've defined today the library as follows: define library mixlib libtype=scsi define path server01 mixlib srctype=server desttype=library device=lb3.0.0.0 define drive mixlib dlt_mt4 define drive mixlib sdlt_mt5 define path server01 dlt_mt4 srctype=server desttype=drive library=mixlib device=mt4.0.0.0 define path server01 sdlt_mt5 srctype=server desttype=drive library=mixlib device=mt5.0.0.0 define devclass dlt_class devtype=dlt format=dlt35c library=mixlib define devclass sdlt_class devtype=dlt format=sdlt320c library=mixlib define stgpool dlt_pool dlt_class maxscratch=20 (was already defined of course) define stgpool sdlt_pool sdlt_class maxscratch=20 The first serie of tests went fine: labelling of SDLT tapes backup of the TSM database to a DLT7000 tape I started then the migration from the primary DLT volumes to the SDLT primary pool. This confuses me from time to time. The following sitations happened: 1. SDLT volume mounted in SDLT drive and a bit later the move failed with the warning ANR1145W (not enough mount points available). All drives and paths were online A 'query mount' didn't give any other mount requests. 2. SDLT volume mounted in SDLT drive, DLT tape in the other SDLT drive and the 'move data' is successfull. 3. SDLT volume in SDLT drive and DLT tape in DLT7000 drive (that is what I would expect). The'move data' is successfull. If a new 'move data' is started, you typically see the message 'waiting for a mount point in device class sdlt_class or dlt_class. But how does TSM knows which drive belongs to which device class? Where is this link defined (through the format:dlt35c / sdlt320c in the device class?)? Can you check which drives belongs to a specific device class according to TSM? And why is a DLT tape mounted in a SDLT drive if the DLT drive is ready to be used as well? Any input that will make this more clear to me how TSM chooses a drive is more then welcome. Thanks in advance, Kurt

Re: Query Event for Previous day shows status In Progress
Here's the descriptions we give for the Failed Status to users: In Progress used to be (?) - which in all the cases I've seen actually makes more sense! Event's In Progress show as Started all the time for us. Status == In Progress - Schedule not completed, status not reported to server - check dsmerror.log, dsmsched.log and OS Event logs - Usually means session severed to TSM server - Could be caused by Network error, TSM Server or client error during schedule - Restart TSM Client Schedule Service Completed(4) - The operation completed successfully, but some files were not processed - Files are not processed for various reasons. The most common reasons are: - The file was in use by another application and could not be accessed by the client - The file changed during the operation to an extent prohibited by the copy serialization attribute - (See client errors attachment for failed files) Completed(8) - The operation completed with at least one warning message - Check Windows Event Log or dsmerror.log and dsmsched.log Failed- Client reported a failure - check dsmerror.log and dsmsched.log - Archives may show Failed if files opened with exclusive access were not processed - (These files should be excluded, or the application should be stopped via pre/post cmds) Missed- TSM Server could not contact client during startup window - This could indicate a problem with TSM Server, TSM client or network (including firewall rules) - Ensure TSM Client Schedule Service is running Restarted - Schedule was still running when report was run - Session lost and reconnected during startup window (eg. Reboot) - Check dsmsched.log/event logs for final status Started - Schedule was still running when report was run - Check dsmsched.log/event logs for final status
Querying the data a file was backed up on a volume
I've got a volume that I've don't a query content on. I can't tell what date the files were backed up that are on that volume though. I'm thinking I have to do a select query to pull this off but somehow I need a method to figure out what date the objects in a query content for a volume were backed up. Any suggestions? The closest I've come is I got a ballpark date by doing a select * from volumes for the volume which tells me when it was last written to. It doesn't give me the date of an individual item though. I need a finer level of granularity. Appreciate the help! Gerald This e-mail has been captured and archived by the ZANTAZ Digital Safe(tm) service. For more information, visit us at www.zantaz.com.

The TSM client didn't use a DOMAIN statement. This resulted in that drive to be skipped without *any* message, warning or error.
