Re: Get rid of damaged files?
Hi, If you implemeted copy stg pools the "audit vol fix=yes" will only mark the damaged files as damaged in the database. The restore vol will copy the damaged files from copy stg pool volumes back into the primary pools and the volume that countained the damaged files will be returned to scratch if this were the last objects still on that volume. Then the back up stg pool will run as planned. Only do a delete volume when restoring and moving is inpossible.

Re: Directory storage pools
TSM's selection for default directory management class for backup isn't quite that sophisticated: it picks the management class whose backup copy group has the longest RETONLY setting. In the case where there is a tie, the management class whose name is highest in collating sequence gets picked. The number of versions kept is not a factor. Thus one "gotcha" to watch out for with the current selection method is that the default management class could end up going to tape (this has come up in the past on ADSM-L).

Re: Copy storage pool in a SAN
No, it does not work. Per IBM, if you have COPYSTGPOOL defined for a primary Stg Pool and you attempt to perform LAN free backup to this primary Stg Pool, it _should_ queitly revert to LAN path and then write to both primary and copy pools. In reality, this appears to be behaving like this only in 5.2.x. In 5.1.x it does not revert to LAN, but it also does not write to copy stg pool :) Also, it keeps it in secret - no messages, errors, nothing.

If the volume is otherwise empty, you can do a 'delete vol VOLUMENAME discarddata=yes' When you do this, there is no return, so recover all you can first.

Re: TDP SQL Transaction log not truncating
I remember having same problem; and yes you are right. Even if you are doing incremental sql backup; if in between two incremental backups you run "reindex", next incremental will be similar in size as full backup. Logically this is still incremental only it is too big. We ended up running reindex weekly ( we run daily incremental and weekly full) Regards, Joe Crnjanski Infinity Network Solutions Inc.

The next question is... *how* do you select ONLY directories for this management class without selecting any files within them, in dsm.opt?

Re: ?continue using 3590's or convert to LTO tape?
We're keeping our existing 3494 with eight 3590H1A's to handle workstation and smaller size node backups (being we're heavily invested already). We've just ordered and received a 3584 with six LTO2 drives to handle our increasing demand for offsite media copies as well as large server/node backups. We're anticipating approximately 75Tb of growth in the next year that can be handled much more efficiently and cost-effectively using LTO2 drives and a new library. I think the answer is probably both, but you really have to determine on your own being there are a number of variables to consider (particularly sunk costs).

To other TSM sites w/ substantial investment in 3590 technology: We are again trying to figure out what to do for additional TSM tape capacity. We currently have two IBM 3494 ATL's (each w/ six 3590E1A SCSI-connected drives and ~2000 tapes in each) for primary STGpools.

Others here speculate that perhaps we should consider converting from 3590 to LTO media because of increasing 3590 maintenance costs, etc. Another concern is that in 3-5 years our 3590 media may be obsolete [definitely beyond the 10 year warranty period], so why not get off now? Are you [other sites substantially invested in 3590's] continuing to invest in 3590's -or- are you converting to other (LTO?) tape technology?

Re: Multithreaded session writes on tape although primary pool is on disk ...
Also, remember, (if you are running client compression) that the preallocation performed against the disk will be 100% of how big the file is on your host system. ALSO if you are using TDP/R3 and it is greater than tdpr3 v3.2.0.11 it will clear cache and preallocate at a rate of 110% unless you alter the environment variable that adjusts that overage percentage. So, if you are running 10 concurrent multiplexed sessions each pushing two (2) 4 GB files, that is 4*2*10*1.10 = 88 GB of diskpool space required, even though the files might really only occupy 25 GB of storage pool space due to client compression.

This is a classic situation where the disk pool is undersized relative to demand: it fills (perhaps helped along by stpool caching overhead) and TSM rules have the data go to the next stgpool in the hierarchy. Transaction sizing and client-server size anticipations are also factors. The cure is to have a generous disk storage pool, unless you can identify other contributing factors in your configuration (compression, etc.). Disk is cheap, so go for it. Richard Sims

Re: Restoring data after deleting a volume
Yup - the move data, submitted something like 7-8 times, has done nothing to help us. Too many errors. LESSON LEARNED: the delete vol was issued before the restore vol. Happily enough, the data on that volume was actually three files that I really really don't want backed up, as they had old mgt class bindings and took up a ton of space, so I only have to get slightly upset with myself. :-) Thanks for the help! - Mike -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Hooft, Jeroen Sent: Monday, April 05, 2004 9:15 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Restoring data after deleting a volume "del vol disc=yes" will not only delete your primary volume but also your copy volume.

AW: Restoring data after deleting a volume
well, DELETE VOLUME is a secure way.. to loose your data. dsmadmc> HELP DELETE VOLUME ... If the volume being deleted is a primary storage pool volume, the server checks whether any copy storage pool has copies of files that are being deleted. When files stored in a primary storage pool volume are deleted, any copies of these files in copy storage pools are also deleted. ... ... 1) If you are NOW to restore files from this volume, simply tell TSM the volume is destroyed: UPDATE VOLUME BlahBlah access=destroyed and subsequent DSMC RESTORE will retsore files from backup storage pool (assuming the volumes required are not OFFSITE). After restore use RESTORE VOLUME or RESTORE STG to recreate you primary storage pool volumes. Check the HELP command for more details. 2) Alternatively, if you are afraid not all files from the volume concerned have redundant copy in a backup storage pool, use AUDIT VOLUME first followed with RESTORE VOLUME or RESTORE STG, a n d with BACKUP STG, then goto (1). regards juraj -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Mike Bantz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Montag, 05.

Re: Restoring data after deleting a volume
Don't delete it. That will get rid of the copy as well. You need to do a restore volume. Do a help on that. I usually do a preview and find out what tapes I need from the vault first. I mark all the tapes as unavailable so that TSM will not use them. When I get them all in the library I change them to readonly and then do the restore. -- Phillip Ford Senior Software Specialist Enterprise Computing Services Schering-Plough Corp.

Re: Restoring data after deleting a volume
Since I should have a copy of this in the copy pool, I should be all set. So I'm going to delete the volume with discarddata=yes STOP! This will delete all references to the data (in the copy stgpool as well as the primary stgpool volume). You will not be able to recover the data without restoring the TSM database to before the volume deletion... Use the restore volume command _first_. For primary stgpool volumes, use "delete volume xxxyyy discarddata=y" only as a last resort, after you've exhausted all other options. Ted

Re: Multithreaded session writes on tape although primary pool is on disk ...
Yes the disk pool being close to full can do it. TSM will try to pre-allocate the storage on the disk pool for the file being backed up. If there isn't space for it, it will pass the backup to the seconday pool, your tape drives). If I remember this correctly, once the backup starts going direct to tape it seems to keep doing that. There is also a max file size on the diskpool. If the file, (if it is through an API it treats the backup as 1 file per SESSION), is larger than this value it goes straight to tape. If you really want to speed things up, increase your MAX MOUNT POINTS on your nodes definition.
