TDP/SQL and Striping
Hi, TSM server v5.1.5.2 running on IBM mainframe. OS is Z/OS 1.4 TSM Client v4.1.5.0 TDP version 2.2.1 SQL Server 7.0 I have a 20gb SQL database that takes slightly more than an hour to backup using TDP and a 200gb SQL database taking 15 hours to backup using TDP. I am considering using striping. I have read the redbook and the TSM/SQL installation and Users guide and have evrything setup, or so i thought. Collocation on FILESPACES Node MAXNUMMP set to 8 mount points Device Class set to Mount Limit 8 TXNGROUPMAX set to 256 The 20gb database is on one physical disk The 200gb database is spread across 3 physical volumes When i backup, it only uses a single thread, i.e. one mount point. Do i need to ask our Database Admin guys to put striping on the SQL database?

tsm fc devices and aix 5.2 multipath i/o?
Hi all, I'm currently configuring our new TSM server. This new box has 4 FC adapters that all connect to the same FC switch that again connects to our STK 9840C and STK 9940B drives. I was under the impression that with AIX 5.2 I would be able to configure AIX to know about the redundancy in this set-up and do some automatic fail-over and load-balancing. Unfortunately, this does not seem to be the case, the devices are not multi-path capable according to AIX. Has anobody succesfully configured TSM on AIX using multipath I/O ? isit possible? If so, what drivers did you load in AIX to enable this? -- Met vriendelijke groeten, Remco Post SARA - Reken- en Netwerkdiensten http://www.sara.nl High Performance Computing Tel. +31 20 592 3000Fax. +31 20 668 3167 I really didn't foresee the Internet.

SQL Server restore fails (5.2.1.0)
Hi *SM-ers! Our SQL Server guys are migrating several databases to a new server by using a TSM backup. Most database restores went fine, except for one. My conclusion is that the TSM server cancels the session after waiting for 3 hours, but I cannot find why the restore doesn't work for this database only. They performed the following actions to accomplish the migration: 1) The changed the tdpsql.cfg: FROMSQLserver af05100 SQLSERVer kl1007w9 2) They changed the dsm.opt nodenameaf05100-sql PasswordAccess prompt 3) They started the restore through the GUI 4) They entered the TSM password and selected the databases to restore. 5) All were restored, except for one. They repeated the action for this database only: same result.

Eric, Is the database being restored very large? SQL server can take many hours to recreate and initialize the database tables it has asked for the tape but *before* it actually starts reading the tape.

checkout DB2 backup [Virus checked]
Hi *, we want to check out a DB2-backup. We backup our DB2-DB over the DB2-api in the TSM. The data are stored in a 3494 library. Now we want to move the tapes in a other location (out of the library, for example a safe). What is the best way to move the data out of the library??? Best regards, Frank

Netware 6.5 and TSM 5.2.2
Every question seems to relate to Novell when I am on here...We just upgraded our NetWare Cluster servers (4) to 6.5. Upgraded TSM to 5.2.2 and all seemed well. Until I started to look at the log reports and found out TSM was not backing up the San volumes on the Cluster. It will back up the SYS: volume on all Clusters , but will not back up any SAN volumes associated to the Cluster. I have not changed anything on TSM and have upgraded all my other Novell clients without problems. Granted all the other Novell Servers are not Cluster Servers, but has anyone seen or had this problem? Thank You!
Re: Delete obsolete directories only?
I have not seen a response to this question, and I have a similar situation. We had noticed that our filespaces for our Oracle DB backups keep growing in leaps and bounds, and it finally became clear that they were growing faster than would be expected in consideration of the number of databases we have added. Upon investigation I have found that there is an enormous amount of space being used by backups that should have expired, however I cannot delete the entire filespace because that would also eliminate the valid backups. I have found that there seems to be two separate issues at play. One is that upon installing a new version of SQL Backtrack the Oracle admin that handles those profiles used the wrong management class, leaving the backups in limbo on TSM. They have expired from the SQL Backtrack catalog and marked inactive, however, they will never be removed from TSM in their current state. I cannot bind them to the appropriate management class via the usual methods. The other issue is that we seem to have some stragglers from 2001 and 2002, that should have expired, but are still hanging around for some reason. The only way I have found in the documentation to remove these items is by deleting the object by object number from the database. Can anyone tell me if this is the only way to clean up these items, and if that will in fact work to remove them from the tapepool storage? TSM for AIX 5.2.0 TSM for SUN/Solaris 4.2.1 SQL Backtrack 3.0, 4.0.10 Thanks, Debbie -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tab Trepagnier Sent: Friday, April 16, 2004 1:47 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Delete obsolete directories only? TSM Server 5.1.8.0 on AIX; TSM Client 5.1.6.0 on Windows 2000 I have a situation where over time, the location of data on our network has moved from server to server. In many cases we moved the identity of the first server to the second server, but the data paths were not duplicated exactly. For example, \\server_name\d$\current_root_path\... \\*\*\old_root_path\... where current_root_path and old_root_path are peers under the same d$ parent. Because the old_root_path became invalid on the first backup of the new server, all the data under it was marked inactive by TSM. No problem there. Once the RetOnly duration elapsed, all the FILES were purged from that path. Again, no problem there. But the directories were retained, probably because they were bound to no limit permanent management classes prior to our implementing DIRMC controls. Meaning those directories will live for the duration of the server's identity or our TSM system, whichever ends first. Those duplicate paths confuse our Help Desk. I would like to delete just the contents under old_root_path since there are no files under that path. But because both root paths are under the same filespace, I can't delete the filespace. I turned on the permission node can delete backups but that still didn't let me kill that directory tree. So, is there a way to kill the directory tree under old_root_path other than killing the entire filespace? TIA Tab Trepagnier TSM Administrator Laitram, L.L.C.
Re: ANE4987E during backup
It is always a good idea to include your TSM client and server versions and operating system information when asking for help with problems. Version information should be complete (i.e. 5.2.2.5, not just 5.2). The most likely explanation is that a different include/exclude list is being used during the scheduled backup. You ran one test from the GUI. Try it with the command line client: dsmc s c:\documents and settings\networkservice\ntuser.dat Things to check: - Verify that you are using the dsm.opt file that you think you are using. From the client machine's .\baclient directory: dsmcutil query /name:your TSM server name here What is the options file being used? What are its contents? - See whether the node has an associated client options set. From the TSM admin client: query node your_node_name_here f=d Look for a value in the Optionset field. If one exists, then run: query clo option_set_name_here Regards, Andy Andy Raibeck IBM Software Group Tivoli Storage Manager Client Development Internal Notes e-mail: Andrew Raibeck/Tucson/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.

Re: ODBC select statement via Host Monitor software
Hi Tony, I am unfamiliar with the Host Monitor product. Which ODBC driver version are you using? Is it current? If not, then my first recommendation would be to get on the latest greatest (5.2.2). If that doesn't help, then have a look at the problem determination guide at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/tividd/td/IBMStorageManagerMessages5.2.2.html. Follow the TSM ODBC driver link, then Troubleshooting and Diagnostics for further guidance (since troubleshooting ODBC problems is not trivial, the guide asks you to collect some documentation, then to open a PMR).

Re: TDP/SQL and Striping
Jeff, There is nothing you should need to do in regards to the SQL Server to use multiple stripes. Data Protection for SQL informs the SQL Server how many stripes it would like to use. The SQL Server completely determines how the data is fed to each striped session. Data Protection for SQL will open a TSM API session for each stripe created, plus one additional session for management. You didn't mention it, so I cannot be sure, but you need to tell Data Protection for SQL to use multiple stripes. That is, something like this: TDPSQLC BACKUP dbname FULL /STRIPES=3 It is probably a good idea to find out where your maximum throughput rate is by running some backups starting with a lower number of stripes, for example, try 2, 3, and 4 stripes... before going to 8 stripes. If you cannot get multiple stripes to work, please call IBM support.

If on the other hand you accidentally make your FAX call someone's voice line, the person receiving the call will be inconvenienced, especially if your FAX then re-dials every 5 minutes. The fact that most people will eventually connect the FAX machine to the voice line to allow the FAX to go through and make the calls stop does not mean that you should continue to send FAXes to the voice number.

If sql backtrack uses backups rather than archives, then take a look at the ba client expire command Because these are API backups, to address them from the BA client you need to use a special syntax with braces around the filespace part of the file name. See the BA client doc for details. Regards Steve Harris AIX and TSM Admin Queensland Health, Brisbane Australia [EMAIL PROTECTED] 20/04/2004 0:04:23 I have not seen a response to this question, and I have a similar situation. We had noticed that our filespaces for our Oracle DB backups keep growing in leaps and bounds, and it finally became clear that they were growing faster than would be expected in consideration of the number of databases we have added. Upon investigation I have found that there is an enormous amount of space being used by backups that should have expired, however I cannot delete the entire filespace because that would also eliminate the valid backups. I have found that there seems to be two separate issues at play. One is that upon installing a new version of SQL Backtrack the Oracle admin that handles those profiles used the wrong management class, leaving the backups in limbo on TSM. They have expired from the SQL Backtrack catalog and marked inactive, however, they will never be removed from TSM in their current state. I cannot bind them to the appropriate management class via the usual methods. The other issue is that we seem to have some stragglers from 2001 and 2002, that should have expired, but are still hanging around for some reason. The only way I have found in the documentation to remove these items is by deleting the object by object number from the database. Can anyone tell me if this is the only way to clean up these items, and if that will in fact work to remove them from the tapepool storage?

TSM Server 5.1.8.0 on AIX; TSM Client 5.1.6.0 on Windows 2000 I have a situation where over time, the location of data on our network has moved from server to server. In many cases we moved the identity of the first server to the second server, but the data paths were not duplicated exactly. For example, \\server_name\d$\current_root_path\... \\*\*\old_root_path\... where current_root_path and old_root_path are peers under the same d$ parent. Because the old_root_path became invalid on the first backup of the new server, all the data under it was marked inactive by TSM. No problem there. Once the RetOnly duration elapsed, all the FILES were purged from that path. Again, no problem there. But the directories were retained, probably because they were bound to no limit permanent management classes prior to our implementing DIRMC controls. Meaning those directories will live for the duration of the server's identity or our TSM system, whichever ends first. Those duplicate paths confuse our Help Desk. I would like to delete just the contents under old_root_path since there are no files under that path. But because both root paths are under the same filespace, I can't delete the filespace. I turned on the permission node can delete backups but that still didn't let me kill that directory tree. So, is there a way to kill the directory tree under old_root_path other than killing the entire filespace?

Re: BA client 5.2.2 and Server 2003
The error message you see would appear to be related to an attempt to back up the Windows 2003 system state. I don't see how the temp directory has any bearing on this. ANSx messages are client messages. You need to look in the Messages manual; alternatively you can run dsmc help to look up client messages. If you are interested in backing up only C: and D: (and not system state), then put this in your options file: DOMAIN C: D: If you care only about local drives, regardless of drive letters, then use: DOMAIN -SYSTEMSTATE -SYSTEMSERVICES Andy Raibeck IBM Software Group Tivoli Storage Manager Client Development Internal Notes e-mail: Andrew Raibeck/Tucson/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.

The dsm.opt file looks like this: PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE TCPSERVERADDRESS10.17.10.13 dirmc directory ERRORLOGRETENTION 5 D SCHEDLOGRETENTION 5 D This opt file backs up every local drive on any other machine we've got it on. I'd just like to back up the C$ and D$, default mgmt class. Problem is, the server will back up the C$, process the D$, then kick back an error ANS1950E, that Backup via Windows Shadow Copy failed. I cannot query the error on the server (no text found). I've tried explicity including the d:\temp directory, etc to no avail. This is something obvious, isn't it? :-) Mike Bantz Systems Administrator Research Systems, Inc
