Re: Backup time taking too high ... how to solve
It's very difficult to guide you on backup performance without knowing the configuration of servers used or operating system. Regarding the message of database changes, it is not related to your backup time as its means that you need to take a TSM database backup.

The end result is the same -- all currently active data is stored on tape and can be moved offsite, without needing any maintenance from the main TSM server. Given LTO 3 with an maximum data speed of 50 MB/s uncompressed, a moderate guess (I hope) for the data transfer rate would be 30 MB/s, which would give 93 hours to write it down. Given that a tape has a capacity of 400 GB uncompressed, it would take at the most 25 tapes. We would obviously want to be able to use the backup server as usual while doing the export. Then you would need to make sure that your server has enough capacity, in terms of tape drives (and connectivity to the tape drives), network bandwidth (to cover both the export and the backups), and such like to cope with both the export (or backup set generation) and regular backups simultaneously. From my point of view, being in the middle of fiddling around with exports (server to server in my case) for various "last ditch" DR systems, I'd suggest keeping it simple. If backup sets (see the "generate backupset" command in the admin reference manual) fill your needs, my advice would be to make use of them, rather than using the rather fragile option of server data exports.

Export feasibility
Hello all, We are investigating replacing our old backup systems with TSM. We don't want to give up storing away a complete snapshot of our systems off site every few months, over time maybe reusing the off site tapes so that we finally save a snapshot a year. I think that the most logical way to accomplish this with TSM is to do a complete export like export server filedata=allactive ... I have played with it with a smaller data set, 100 gigs or so, and it seems to work pretty fine. But I have no idea what will happen when we have a lot of data. We estimate a filedata=allactive export to about 10 TB (and somewhere between 30 million and 100 million files, that numbers is yet unknown). Given LTO 3 with an maximum data speed of 50 MB/s uncompressed, a moderate guess (I hope) for the data transfer rate would be 30 MB/s, which would give 93 hours to write it down. Given that a tape has a capacity of 400 GB uncompressed, it would take at the most 25 tapes. We would obviously want to be able to use the backup server as usual while doing the export. I have seen concerns about that the export mechanism would easily bail out at smaller problems, and maybe other issues with it, that make people avoid using it even for smaller amounts of data. If this (still?) is true, doing a 74 hour multi tape export may just not be practical. Is the above feasible at all? Is anyone doing this? Are there any other comments or ideas on the above? Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience! Ragnar Sundblad - Department for Numerical Analysis and Computer Science Royal Institute of Technology Stockholm, Sweden

How to remove a single file from a TSM backup tape volume
Technote (FAQ)
Problem
For customers with security sensitive files already backed up to tape.
The following workaround can be used to remove a single file object from
backup tape.
Cause
A need can arise where a classified file breaches the security of the
customer and the customer needs to remove the file from the backup
volume without losing the rest of the active data on tape volume
Solution
A. Find the volume(s) containing the file:
.
1) Run a select statement to view a particular file and get the
Object_ID
2) show bfo 0
3) locate the super-bitfile (The superbitfile is basically the first
bit file object in an aggregate)
4) show bfo 0 (This will list all of the bit files
within the aggregate and the at the bottom, show you the volume name for
the primary and the copy)
.
Here's what it looks like:
.
1)
tsm:AIX21>select * from backups where node_name='KEITHTECHVIT' and
ll_name='dsmsched.log'
.
NODE_NAME: KEITHTECHVIT
FILESPACE_NAME: /
STATE: ACTIVE_VERSION
TYPE: FILE
HL_NAME: /
LL_NAME: dsmsched.log
OBJECT_ID: 553769
BACKUP_DATE: 2001-07-20 14:18:12.00
DEACTIVATE_DATE:
OWNER: root
CLASS_NAME: KEITHTECHVIT
.
2)
tsm: AIX21>show bfo 0 553769
.
Bitfile Object: 0.553769
**Sub-bitfile 0.553769 is stored in the following aggregate(s)
Super-bitfile: 0.553747, Offset: 0.146740, Length 0.933
.
3)
tsm: AIX21>show bfo 0 553747
.
Bitfile Object: 0.553747
**Super-bitfile 0.553747 contains following aggregated bitfiles
0.553747
0.553748
0.553749
0.553750
0.553751
0.553752
0.553755
0.553756
0.553757
0.553758
0.553759
0.553760
0.553761
0.553762
0.553763
0.553764
0.553765
0.553766
0.553767
0.553768
0.553769
.
**Sub-bitfile 0.553747 is stored in the following aggregate(s)
Super-bitfile: 0.553747, Offset: 0.0, Length 0.1315
.
**Disk Bitfile Entry
Bitfile Type: PRIMARY Storage Format: 6
Logical Size: 0.147865 Physical Size: 0.151552 Number of Segments: 2
Storage Pool ID: 1 Volume ID: 7 Volume Name: /tsm/bvol001.dsm
Storage Pool ID: 1 Volume ID: 7 Volume Name: /tsm/bvol001.dsm
**Archival Bitfile Entry
Bitfile Type: COPY Storage Format: 6
Bitfile Size: 0.147865 Number of Segments: 1
Storage Pool ID: -7 Volume ID: 702 Volume Name: 002
.
B. Define a new management class/copy group with the following
expiration parameters
versions exist - 1
versions deleted - 0
retain extra - 0
retain only - 0
.
C. Next, set up the client's dsm.opt to include ONLY the targeted file
and exclude all others
include /path/file
.
D. Run a backup. When the backup completes, run expiration.
.
E. Once the tapes are available, run
move data
to move the data (except the expired file) off the original tape(s)
F. Lastly, check each original tape out of the library

Multi-process Reclamtion/migration 5.3
Hello, Has anyone set up Multi-process Reclamation/Migration for TSM 5.3? If so is there any documentation on how to set it up? where? I only found bits and pieces of it being talked about. TSM 5.3.0.1 RS/6000 Aix5.2 p670 Thanks for any assistance!
Listserver subscription hosed
My apologies to the list, but I can't seem to do this another way. Can someone who manages this listserver please contact me. I have sent two emails to Marist and can't seem to get a response. We (another co-worker is also on this list and has the same problem) have stopped getting ADSM-L mail since last week. When I tried SET ADSM-L MAIL, it said I wasn't subscribed. When I try to resubscribe, it tells me "550 Invalid user". When I send a SIGNOFF it takes a long time for a response and then get the same Invalid user" error. Have we been blacklisted for some reason ? I have resubscribed via an alternate email system but need to clear up this issue for my primary email account.
Re: SUSPECT: (MSW) Re: Directory path backed up again and again ...
Andy, I tried to activate the traceflag FIOATTRIBS, however to simulate the same conditions as usual, I had to issue an incremental backup command without specifying any object : the output was huge ! I then tried to understand it, and found out that only the objects having "Mod Time different: returning ATTRIBS_BACKUP" where eligible for backup, unfortunately none of those objects was my "/export/mksysb".

Thanks, Richard, for pointing out the distinction. You are correct, on Unix, regular incremental backup of normal directories does not include the timestamp data as criteria. On Windows, if the last write time for the directory has changed, then it is a candidate for incremental backup. Create and access times are not part of the criteria for incremental backup. The FIOATTRIBS trace class can be used to help determine what TSM is seeing as changed. If I were going to look at the trace, I'd want to add POLICY and VERBINFO just so I can verify that the directories are not being bound to a management class whose copygroup mode setting is ABSOLUTE, in case FIOATTRIBS doesn't yield the answer.

TSM 5.1.5 Client TSM 5.3 restore compatiblity
Hello, Can a TSM 5.1.5 client be restored to a 5.3 server using the Backup/Restore/ Java Gui? Or it has to be done from the command line only? Also, If I wanted to restore a file to it's original location for example cd/usx/mvm/qamp I would type in the following from the command line in the path that I want the file restored to? dsmc restore /usx/mvm/qamp/file name >From what I read, I'm pretty sure this correct I just want to make 100% sure. Sorry, but I usually do restores from the Java Gui learning to do them from the command line now Thanks for any replies TSM client 5.1.5 TSM Server 5.3.0.1

Re: Can't restore Exchange
Nghiatd, HRESULT: 0xc7ff1004 is returned when the Exchange Server encounters something that it did not expect. Many times this means that there was a missed step during the rebuild of the Exchange Server. I would check the specific disaster recovery steps for Exchange 2000 here: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/exchange/2000/library/disrec00.mspx to make sure that you are not missing a critical step. If you can not identify the problem, please place a call with IBM support so that the proper documentation can be gathered to diagnose this.

Re: Query Contents
Terry, Yeah I realise that I will only get which volume is on which tapes. How ever what I can't do is get that information with out specifying a tape ID. I want to get information about all the tapes without having to specify maually a tape ID. So that I can run a command or query that will tell me about all the tapes in our nasmonthly pool, ie: what tapes hold which volumes.

Re: Oracle 7.3.4 / 8.0.6 and TSM 5.2
Mark, Well, TSM allows for pre-backup and post-backup scripts as well for a given stanza. But I still think a cron/TSM scheduled job executing a script that will put the tablespaces in backup mode, followed by executing the dsmc client locally, and then putting the tablespaces back in normal is a simple way of doing it. This way, the dsmc scheduler (if using TSM scheduler) will only execute the first script, and then you run a number of manual dsmc sessions in your script backing up the necessary files. Also, this way you will have a good control of what is being backed up. Lets say you have a scenario where the dba adds more data files in a new file system. In your stanza you would have to update the DOMAIN variable manually to have this system added, and restart the dsmc -sched process. But if running the dsmc from the client, you can generate a list of files from Oracle, and then figure out which file systems that needs to be backed up, and change the command-line domain accordingly. Running the dsmc client you can on the command line change the domain. As long as the node is using its default domain/copygroup your files will end up in the correct pool. Mind you, I haven't tried this recently, but I believe the concept should still work with TSM 5.2. /Andreas Mark Tindall wrote: Andreas, this was sort of the way I had thought of but I still have one problem and that is how to take the tablespaces out of backup mode after the backup has finished.
