Re: Antwort: Re: TSM performance and network options

2003-11-24 Thread John Monahan
With AIX 5.2 things have changed a little regarding vmtune, and the no
command has also changed.  These are now in the bos.perf.tune fileset.
vmtune and schedtune commands have been replaced with vmo, ioo, schedo.
You can still use the old vmtune command because there is a pre520tune
compatibility mode that is turned on by default.  If you turn off the
pre520tune compatibility mode, you can use "smitty tuning" to manage all
the same values without the need for vmtune.  There is also an option in
smit to save the settings so they are applied on every reboot.

The pre520tune setting is in smit...System Environment...Change/Show

Just to stray a ~little~ off-topic

I'm interested in the vmtune64 command you are using. I recently
migrated a host to aix5.2 and am running it in 64-bit mode, but still
only have the vmtune command, not vmtune64...

root:># lslpp -w /usr/samples/kernel/vmtune
  FileFileset   Type



  /usr/samples/kernel/vmtune  bos.adt.samples   File

root:># lslpp -l bos.adt.samples
  Fileset  Level  State  Description



Path: /usr/lib/objrepos
  bos.adt.samples   5.2.0.10  COMMITTED  Base Operating System
Samples

Which fileset is this "vmtune64" command included in, I can't
seem to find a 64-bit version of this fileset.

Thanks,
Ben

Make sure file system caching is off for JFS filesystems- and consider
running vmtune on aix. We have the following parameters that made a
tremendous difference. I would suggest testing in a test environment
first if you have the
option:

vmtune64 -p 10 -P 20 -s1 -W16 -c8 -R256 -F512 -u25 -b2200 -B2200

note- we are running 64bit mode AIX 5.1 ML4, hence vmtune64.

Also, using Direct I/O on TSM and AIO servers on AIX can help with
performance, but overall the underlying disk infrastrucutre is going to
be just as important as the logical layout and tuning.

I can't really speak to Aix performance with RAW volumes, maybe
someone else can.  I use Solaris on all of my TSM servers and I can tell
a huge difference between RAW and logical.  In basic benchmark testing,
it took 4-6 minutes to backup 1 500MB file from the local disk on the
TSM server using logical, vxfs formatted volumes.  Doing the same test
with RAW volumes took about 40 secs, a huge difference.  I was able to
replicate these results many times over.  You will also see a big
performance boost in operations such as expiration and file space
deletions.

Re: SAP R/3

2003-11-24 Thread Zlatko Krastev
--> I was told that Veritas does this. What would be the benefit of doing
things this way?

Teach yourself to avoid the marketing scrap without being bullied. This
"functionality" is useful in only one case - when your backup clients (or
their network connectivity) are heavily bottlenecked and tape drive
outperforms them.
I would hardly accept that your R/3 server is a box which is unable to
read from disks faster than a single tape drive!


Example 1: your nodes A, B, C are able to drive their backup streams up to
5 MB/s and the drive is capable of 15 MB/s. By multiplexing these slow
clients you would be able to stream the tape drive at full speed.

Example 2: your nodes A, B, C are able to stream at 20 MB/s (20+20+20=60
MB/s) but you multiplex them again. As result the backup data on tape will
look like "ABCACCBAA..." and your restore of client A will be "read, skip,
skip, read, skip, skip, skip, read, read, ..."

Example 3: Your single node A is splitting data in 3 streams A1, A2, A3
which in turn got multiplexed. The result might be again something like
"A1A2A3A1A3A3A2A1A1".
But what if your restore becomes "read A1, skip, skip, read A1, skip,
skip, skip, read A1, read A1, rewind, skip, read A2, skip, skip, skip,
skip, read A2, ..."?!?

Re: How to remove a 'Destroyed' volume

2003-11-24 Thread Zlatko Krastev
If this is primary pool volume, it is *highly* advisable not to do so!!!
By performing "delete volume" on a primary pool volume you are deleting
*all copies* of objects stored on the volume - primary, on-site and
off-site copypool.
When "restore volume" finishes with success, it will delete the volume
automatically. If "query content" shows some objects still residing on the
volume, the restore was not complete/successful.

While you still have some time (until you have copy of the database before
"del v" was done), you can check what data was deleted/lost.
Restore old DB on a test/DR server and look at "q cont x" output!!!

ANR0548W Retrieve or restore failed

2003-11-24 Thread Gerald Wichmann
Thanks.. Turns out I figured out what that error meant in my case. I was
doing a wildcard restore which is considered a "no query restore" since I'm
using a wildcard instead of specifying the actual file names. TSM is simply
telling me which files were unavailable. So I used the GUI to restore the
actual files in that directory using a point in time and I get a different
error, ANR0548W.

Now I did a quick "q vol" on these volumes and they are all a part of my
onsite backup pool. The tapes that I have are offsite copypool tapes.
According to the below help on ANR0548W if I retry the operation it should
ask for the copypool tape. It doesn't.. it just spits out the same below
errors again. I'm guessing that either I have a problem with my DB or tape
(less likely), the data isn't in a copy pool at all (equally unlikely) or
the offsite copypool volume it wants is status unavailable and perhaps TSM
just doesn't tell me that's the root of the problem?

I would really like to make it so it requests the copypool tape first and
not my primary pool's tapes. Is there someway of doing this?

My database is huge (100GB). I set my primary pool volumes all to access
destroyed. I set those tapes that I do have (some offsite ocpypool tapes
that I care about) to acc=reado. Just seem to be having trouble getting the
data to restore now.

Offsite Volume?

I have a TSM 5.1.x server where I have a handful of tapes. They are a part

I try to do a restore of this data, TSM tries to mount the onsite tapes.
What should I do to get TSM to ask for the offsite ones? Don't I just set
the onsite ones to acc=destroyed and the offsite ones to acc=reado and
voila, TSM should ask for the right tape?

  To make sure you have enough scratch tapes in your library a simple SQL
query might help:

select status, last_use, count(*) from libvolumes group by last_use, status

  For load, I have set up a Windows scheduled task that uses the admin
command line interface to perform a few queries and append the results to a
file.  This is helpful to determine how many drives are in use, how many
client tasks are active, how many processes are running, etc at any given
interval. Reviewing this file can be helpful to look in the rear view mirror
to see what might have happened. You could also use the TSM activity log and
extract related messages, but the activity log doesn't nicely show how many
tape drives you have in use!

RES: ITSM 5.2 with 3582 GEN2 drive

2003-11-24 Thread Paul van Dongen
Adesh, 

Some 3 weeks ago I and a colleague were faced with this setup, and
after 2 days we still could not make it work. After defining everything
(and updating everything: device drivers, library and drive firmware),
the first operation (normaly a LABEL LIBVOL) would put the library path
offline without further explanations.
As we had little or no time left, we tried to gather all information
that we could in order to open a PMR. So, we installed 5.1.7.3, and what
happens? Everything works fine!
After that, we upgraded to 5.2 and applied the 5.2.1.2 patch, and it
still worked.

Unfortunately, I can't tell you what happened next, since I was
moved to another project, not knowing if a PMR was opened, and the
result if it was. I know, though, that everything is working OK.

ATL P3000 Library does not initialize

2003-11-24 Thread Hanna Hahne
Hi,

We are in the process of migrating one TSM server to new server and library
hardware. Our problem is that the old library does not initialize at the new
server.

Library: ATL P3000

Environment old TSM Server:
Pseries F50, AIX 4.3.3.11; TSM Server 5.1.7.3

Environment new TSM Server:
pSeries 6F1; AIX 5.1.0.4; TSM Server 5.1.8

Library was running at the old TSM Server. Changer did not work at the new
server, but drive on the same adapter was usable (after changing the library
type from SCSI to MANUAL dsmserv restore DB worked).
Library did not initialize during TSM startup:

11/22/2003 21:40:21  ANR8300E I/O error on library ACL2 (OP=6C01,
CC=304,  
  KEY=02, ASC=04, ASCQ=01,
SENSE=70.00.02.00.00.00.00.0D.0-
  0.00.00.00.04.01.00.00.00.00.04.01.00.,

  Description=Changer failure).  Refer to Appendix D in
the
  'Messages' manual for recommended action.

11/22/2003 21:40:21  ANR8440E Initialization failed for SCSI library ACL2;
will
  retry in 2 minute(s).

11/22/2003 21:42:22  ANR8300E I/O error on library ACL2 (OP=6C02,
CC=207,  
  KEY=FF, ASC=FF, ASCQ=FF, SENSE=**NONE**,

  Description=Device is not in a state capable of

  performing request).  Refer to Appendix D in the

  'Messages' manual for recommended action.

11/22/2003 21:42:22  ANR8441E Initialization failed for SCSI library ACL2. 

Delete library path and redefine, recycling of the library and rebooting the
server did not change anything.
After switching back the library back to the old Server everything was fine!

Question: are there any known problems running an ATL P3000 libraryin the
new environment?
