AW: Migration form Storagepool Disk to Storagepool Disk

Using client compression for TDP for Lotus Domino
Hi to all I have the following question regarding TDP for Lotus Domino: I am using client compression when i execute incremental backups via TDP for Lotus Domino. When my backup is finished i received the statistics on TSM server's log but there is nothing telling me about the compression. i.e: Domino ACD5207 Data Protection for Domino: Incremental database backup from server CYMAIL1 complete. Total Domino databases backed up: 2502 Total bytes transferred: 100256200678 Elapsed processing time: 12850.34 Secs Throughput rate: 7618.98 Kb/Sec Where can i see if my backup via TDP for Lotus Domino is compressed as well as the compression ration?

Dear All, I had to restore active directory, and the one which did not have any any other backup domain controller (This is also our mail server MS Exchange 2000). What i did was that i installed OS and service packs .. and then simply went into restoring the server using backups ! 1-Restored drive C 2-Restored Drive D 3- Restored System objects When i restarted the system it didn't comeup instead it remained at the first white bar of windows loading against black back ground. I was pretty much confused as to what did i do wrong as i restored everything and it should have come back. Anyone any idea on this?

Consider filing a problem report to have this information included in the backup summary. Richard Sims

Re: Using client compression for TDP for Lotus Domino
DP for Domino does not display compression information, but you could determine the compression ratio by using the dsmadmc command: query node nodename f=d and use the Bytes Received Last Session data and compare it to the Total bytes transferred: statistics displayed by DP for Domino to determine the compression ratio. Displaying the compression ratio is a known requirement for DP for Domino.

Re: Reclamation problem
From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Iain Barnetson Don't know about anyone else but I find the TSM documentation woefully inadequate, at times misleading, and on at least one occaission incorrect. So I hope someone can give the person asking the question a bit more help the response RTFM In this particular case, Richard is doing the right thing. There is a detailed explanation of how to set up tape reclamation when there is only one tape drive available, and he indicated the correct area of the administrator's guide. The process is a little complex to be succinctly described in a mailing-list posting. TSM documentation is adequate is most instances; granted that there are a few inaccuracies, but I can't recall any major bloopers in documentation for the last two or three major releases. The largest holes in TSM documentation are the same holes that exist in most application documentation: procedures involving two or more technologies within an application, and best practices. (Most of these holes are filled-in with the IBM Redbook series.) Also, the reason RTFM appears regularly is because many administrators are daunted by the volume of documentation and don't read the docs. Well, cowboys and cowgirls, you should be prepared for large amounts of documentation for an application that is used at the enterprise level. (If you want to see really poor documentation, take a look at the docs for some TSM's major competitors.) -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Berbee Information Networks Office 262.521.5627

We can help you better if you tell us what TSM version you are using, and your server platform. If you have at least TSM 5.2.2, please look at the documentation for TSM Operational Reporting, which is in the TSM Administrator's Guide for your server platform. There is a very extensive reporting capability already built into the TSM 5.2.2 server (and above). You can use it to generate daily reports, mail them, or create HTML files.

Re: exclude ASR
We are currently implementing a backup your laptop service. One of our goals is that the user must be able to do everything them selfs and that we (the admins) have as less work as possible. Another goal is that it must work over slow connections since most of these users are travelling and usually on low bandwidth connections. So we decided to only backup office documents and the like. We enforce this using client option settings and that all works pretty well. Only thing is that if a users does a dsmc i it starts backing all these system files because of asr. Which we don't want and is pretty useless since we don't off rebuild your laptop up to the last desktop icon and all other program files are excluded anyway. Now we tell the users to type dsmc i c: d: z: but that is of course not as nice as a exclude.asr or something. regards Stapleton, Mark wrote: I guess my first question is: why? -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Berbee Information Networks Office 262.521.5627 -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Otto Schakenbos Sent: Friday, February 18, 2005 3:25 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: exclude ASR Does anybody know if it is possible to exclude the ASR with a client option set on the server?

Then when a user does a dsmc i tsm only backups what is in the domain statement. -Original Message- From: Otto Schakenbos [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, February 21, 2005 1:34 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: exclude ASR We are currently implementing a backup your laptop service. One of our goals is that the user must be able to do everything them selfs and that we (the admins) have as less work as possible. Another goal is that it must work over slow connections since most of these users are travelling and usually on low bandwidth connections. So we decided to only backup office documents and the like. We enforce this using client option settings and that all works pretty well. Only thing is that if a users does a dsmc i it starts backing all these system files because of asr. Which we don't want and is pretty useless since we don't off rebuild your laptop up to the last desktop icon and all other program files are excluded anyway.

Re: Restoring Domain controller
Did you restore onto the same hardware or to different hardware. If it is different hardware is there a difference between the server that was backed up and the server you restored? Usually boot problems with windows OS restores are due to one of two things. Either you have different hardware in which case you have to run through the In-Place upgrade or you didn't have the correct service pack installed when you first built the server. Remember that if you want to restore the backup of an OS+SP (ex Windows 2000 SP4) then you must first build the server with that OS+SP prior to performing the restore. Also if you are on differnt hardware and you want to perform a dissimilar restore then on the first boot after the restore you must boot form a Windows installation CD with the OS slipstreamed into it.

? replace aging 3590 tapes/drives w/ LTO ?
We're looking for experienced advice considering whether to a)upgrade our 3590 E1A drives to H1A drives and reuse our aging 3590 tapes for net gain of 50% more tape space b)discard 3494 and 3590 technology and replace w/ LTO-2 or LTO-3 drives and media, expanding our existing 3584 ATL's currently filled w/ LTO-1 media and mixed LTO-1/2 drives. If you have considered or done one of these conversions, we would like to hear from or talk with you. If you don't feel like writing a reply, please send me a phone# and we'll try to call you. Yale University started using 3590 tapes 8 years ago in 1996. We now have two 3494 ATL's, each w/ six 3590 E1A drives, and about 4000 J tape cartridges, most of them 6-8 years old. The warranted life of a 3590 cartridge is 10 years, so... we are wondering what other sites are thinking/doing about your aging 3590 media and hardware. To date, our actual 3590 media failures are insignificant: about 40-50 tapes over the 8 years or 1-2% real failed media. [But how much longer can we expect them to last: 5-10 yrs?] That's eliminating all of the false failures where the 3590 drive actually was at fault; if the tape passes an AUDit Volume and doesn't get errors on another drive, we UPDate the volume back to ReadWrite status and keep on using it, unless it fails again! We also re-attach leader blocks, if they get pulled off, and continue to using the tape if it loads OK. We've only had to fix 6 of those, but 3 became detached during the past 2 weeks! We've had a rough two weeks with one of our 3494 ATL's, but problems seem to occur in fits and spurts. After a few months w/ no problems, we've called IBM 8 times during the past week to service 3590 problems in our busiest 3494 (but had no problems w/ the other one!) During the busiest hours of each afternoon (migrating small clients' backups from disk to collocated 3590 tapes) each of the six 3590 drives mounts (and dismounts) 20 tapes/hr or 120 tapes/hr for the 3494 robot. The library is typically that busy for 5-7 hours each day, then much less busy for the rest of the day and night, mostly doing 3590 tape reclamations. Please advise, if you have experience to share. Thanks for your help. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] (203.432.6693)

? how to protect LTO media shipped offsite to Iron Mountain ?
How do you protect LTO media shipped offsite to Iron Mountain? We currently ship all backupsets offsite to Iron Mountain on 3590 J cartridges w/ no noticeable problems; we just pack as many tapes as will fit tightly into one of Iron Mountain's metal shipping cases. We've been told that LTO cartridges are much more susceptible to damage and have never ejected or shipped any of them offsite.
