Re: From An ATL7100 to a P3000
Hi, If you delete a library all volumes are deleted from the inventory (no library=no inventory). If you define your new library, this will be an empty one (new library=no inventory). Audit library will not checkin volumes, it will only remove missing volumes from the library inventory. Now you have an empty library (in ITSM) and your volumes are put in the new library (mixed scratch and private). - If you give a audit library, no volumes will be checked in in ITSM; - If you give a checkin libv search=library stat=PRIVATE both your Private tapes and your scratch tapes will be checked in as Private, leaving you with a new library and no scratch tapes available. Don't think you will want to to this...; - If you do a checkin libv search=library stat=Scratch, ITSM will not accept the Private tapes as Scratch and ONLY checkin the scratch tapes as Scratch. Then run another checkin this time with checkin libv search=library stat=private for the remaining tapes (the private once). An other way is manual sort your tapes and check them in as either Scr or Priv. Hope above will help.

LTO estimated capacity drops
Just analysing our TSM install today as tapes have been getting chewed up quicker then normal, despite no confuration changes being made at server or client side. We have client-side compression turned on (hardware off) and we were getting about 140-180Gb of data on each tape before they being marked as full. Looking today though it has practically halved in capacity (or more in some cases) dropping anywhere from 45-90Gb of data before being labeled full. Any ideas what might cause this? The nature of our data hasn't changed at all, could dirty drives cause such a drastic reduction in capacity? TIA! Gordon -- This e-mail may contain confidential and/or privileged information.

NDMP backups via LAN?
Hi, I have a potential customer who would like to backup his NetApp filer to TSM. Now I just learned that NDMP allows for backups of the NetApp via the LAN to a backup server with 'local attached' tapedrives. Unfortunately, it seems this is not supported with TSM. Does anybody know if this is in the works? In our case it is impossible to connect the NetApp to the tapedrives, which seems to be the only supported configuration in TSM according to: http://www.netapp.com/tech_library/3066.html#4.6. As you can see, TSM lacks a few options, and the only available option is a non-option in our case. Anybody have any hints? -- 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.

TDP for Oracle
Hi all, I have to implement TDP for Oracle at one our customer location right from TSM.The oracle DB is 8.1.7 on windows NT 4.0. TSM version 5.2.0.0 on windows 2000. RMAN is not used for backup now. My problem is the customer is not willing to provide me with a separate machine for RMAN recovery catalog database. He insists that RMAN DB also be installed on the same machine where the target DB is Installed and running. When I tried the installation in a test m/c I installed Two databases on the same machine in archive log mode. one named PRODDB and other RCATDB. Everything went on fine. When I tried to Mount the target DB which is PRODDB in mount mode it says an oracle error cannot mount the database in Exclusive mode. How to go about it in such situation. I have checked in the ORacle forum sites. But unable to get a solution. My requiremnt is to start the database in mount mode which is to be done for recovery from RMAN. I hope somebody would have done this already. thanks in advance John --- The information in this e-mail is the property of DCM DataSystems and may be confidential and privileged.

Using select statements
Hi everyone I need some help. Was told by a colleague that you can run queries using SQL select statements to obtain information regarding a TSM server. I am trying to compose a select statement to display filespaces on the server which have not been backed up in the last three days. However I am not too sure how to create a statement that works, particularly the part of the statement which deals with the coding for greater then three days Hope this is clear == This communication, together with any attachments hereto or links contained herein, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain information that is confidential or legally protected.

Hello everyone, We have some problems with our TSM scheduler service in a Windows 2000 Cluster Environment. There are two cluster nodes in the cluster, and from each cluster node we try to backup our data from the corresponding cluster-hard disks to a remote TSM-server. So cluster node A backs up data from the corresponding clustered (failover) HD AA to the TSM node AAA and cluster node B who backs up data from the corresponding clustered (failover) HD BB to the TSM node BBB. We would like both these clusters to have failover-capabilities with respect to each other, so that the backup from cluster node A automatically switches to server 2 if it fails on server 1 and vice versa with cluster node B Our problem: two TSM scheduler services on each of the two servers running the cluster are installed: One for cluster node A and one for cluster node B. For some reason that I do not understand only the second service to be installed installed works. The first service installed (scheduler service for cluster node A on Server 1 and the service for cluster node B on server 2) exits with an error (MS Event ID 4099 / Source: AdsmClientService / Scheduler exited with a result code of 12). So the failover-mechanism on the cluster switches over to the other node. There the second installed (working) service allows the data to be backed up successully. But since the Schedule Service does not work on the original nodes, the failover-capabilities of the cluster are lost. We cannot switch cluster nodes between servers, because with the failure of the schedule services installed first the cluster fails and switches back to the nodes where the services that were installed later are located producing the error decribed before. The administrator of the TSM server tells me that the service seems to transmit a wrong password - which cannot be, because I reinstalled it with very simly default passwords and doublespellchecked the passwords. Since he is a Linux expert, he has no experience with windows clustering, and therefore cannot help me on this issue. Does anyone have experience with such a clustered environment under windows and know how to resolve it?

Antwort: AW: Problem with TSM Client in a WIN2000 Cluster Environment
Hi, there is a bug when you install a cluster service sched , you have to open the GUI and reenter the password. When we install a new cluster schedule we map the aktiv node cluster disk to the inactiv node using the same drive letter. This way we can use the same opt and path to the opt to install the schedule on the inactive Node. We can also reenter the password on the inactive nodes' registry to make sure the sched won't fail when the cluster moves resources Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best Regards Markus Veit _ ScaleOn GmbH Co.

Re: NDMP backups via LAN?
Hi, We have several netapp filers in our environment. Because NDMP in general (and specifically in the case of TSM) is lacking we use a slightly different configuration. For each filer, we have an anti-virus server that runs the off box mcafee solution for netapp. These also double as the backup nodes for the filers. We share each vol (vol1, vol2, c$, etc) and backup those with the domain tag in the dsm.opt file. Pro's 1) Doesn't require ndmp. 2) Retains progressive incremental approach. 3) Doesn't require an image backup. 4) Can scale to whatever volume is needed by adding more nodes. 5) No tape drive issues. Con's 1) More network traffic 2) Probably slower. 3) Windows/UNIX account must have rights to read all files. 4) Need to exclude ~snapshot folders (not a big deal, unless you forget). 5) Scheduler service must run as the windows account with the rights. In a disaster, the filer brain is in the c$ share (the files that have all of the qtree's and shares are in there) so you could restore the c$ share and recreate the volumes. Of course the best disaster option for the filers is to have a second one in a remote facility and use snapmirror to mirror them, but that may be cost prohibitive. I have been told (mostly by netapp people) that veritas and legato have better implementations of ndmp than TSM. YMMV.

Now I just learned that NDMP allows for backups of the NetApp via the LAN to a backup server with 'local attached' tapedrives. Unfortunately, it seems this is not supported with TSM. Does anybody know if this is in the works? In our case it is impossible to connect the NetApp to the tapedrives, which seems to be the only supported configuration in TSM according to: http://www.netapp.com/tech_library/3066.html#4.6. As you can see, TSM lacks a few options, and the only available option is a non-option in our case.

Have been asked to backup SQL servers daily using TSM . The details and instructions for how these backups are performed and any characteristics are contained in the respective management class of the policy set in the policy domain. I also need to backup these servers at monthend and some every five weeks. What I am trying to find out is if it is possible to have more than one backup copygroup under this management class. The reason is because the period backups will have different retention times to the dailys and possibly different retain only version values. Is it feasible to create two separate backup copygroups to manage this ? If so how would you get the server to differentiate between if a backup is run daily or at the end of periods. Once again any help would be gratefully received, examples would be even more gratefully received.

Migration steps TSM 5.1 to 5.2 on AIX
Questions: 1). Are the dsmsrv.opt compatible across 5.1 to a 5.2 TSM release 2). Will the upgradedb auto-invoke when I attempt to bring up the 5.2 server pointing to the old 5.1 database 3). If not, where is it.upgradedb is not found on the server. Would it be explicitly invoked prior to bringing up the 5.2 server as in dsmc upgradedb? 4). Are there any things that should be done prior to migration, such as an audit db on the 5.1 TSM db My plan is below for the AIX environment. Any helpful comments would be useful: Upgrade TSM steps: Current setup: *TSM Server Version 5, Release 1, Level 6.1 * AIX 4.3.3.0 Migrating to: *TSM Server Version 5, Release 2, Level 2.0TSM Server * AIX 5.2.0.0 All current storage of disk based volume groups and TSM DB is on SSA disk. Migration scenario: * Stop all scheduled processes on old server * Back up TSM db on old server * Halt both servers * Move from old to new server /usr/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/ o Dsmserv.opt o Dsmserv.sys o Dsmserv.dsk * Move from old to new server /home/root/tsmfiles/ o Devconfig.info o Volhistory.info o Inclexcl.list (for client) o Dsm.opt (for client) * Export SSA disk on current TSM server * Import SSA disk on replacement server running TSM 5.2 * Verify all volume groups and mount points are set. * Start new server (is upgradedb invoked?) * Bring over tape libraries * Recycle node and TSM server

TDP for MSSQL 5.2.1 performance issues and questions.
One of my users is trying to restore a 22 gig MSSQL database using TDP v5.2.1. The entire restore is taking several hours from start to finish and I have no idea why. I've watched the process and once it mounts the tape (the whole DB fits on 1 tape) ,it just sits for usually hours and appears to do nothing. Any clues why this is taking so long? We are running our TSM 5.2.2.4 server under AIX 5.1 if it matters. Any suggestion on what to look at? Thanks, John
Re: TDP for MSSQL 5.2.1 performance issues and questions.
The delay is that with large DB's, you have to wait for the DB file to be recreated on disk before it can be restored from backup. With only say a 1 GB file, it's hardly noticeable. They has been some occasional discussion about this. David B.

Re: TDP for MSSQL 5.2.1 performance issues and questions.
John, This is normal. SQL Server is pre-formatting the files in preparation for the restore. Data Protection for SQL restores a small bit of information that the SQL Server requires to properly set up and preformat the files. After that, Data Protection for SQL must wait around until the SQL Server starts requesting more data to fill the files. There is a README entry and a User's Guide note about this: We recommend that the COMMTIMEOUT value on the TSM Server be set to at least 600 seconds. The SQL Server must preformat the database files prior to restoring the database in those files. This occurs after a small amount of data has already been restored from the TSM Server. When restoring very large databases, it may be necessary to set COMMTIMEOUT to even larger values than 600. Failure to do so may result in restores that fail due to a severed TCP/IP connection caused by the TSM Server thinking that DP for SQL is hung.
