Encryption
Good Evening. Running TSM 5.2.2 on AIX 5.2 Clients are a mix ofSolaris 7,8,9 AIX 4.2, AIX 5.2, Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 most running TSM 5.2.2. I've been reading the forums and was thinking I would probably not have to worry about this until now. I was asked to check and see what it would take to encrypt our data. I have 2 questions. 1: Is it a problem to use an encryption device to encrypt the data before it is sent to the TSM server?I know I would have to have the encryption key to restore the data but I was wondering if there were any problems that I would face. 2: Can TSM encrypt the data? I've read 1 article that indicated it was in TSM 5.3 but I did not see much on 5.2.2 which we are running. Are there any potential problems with using TSM to encrypt if it is possible? I know if you loose the key your done but other than that. Thanks for all the help, Eric
Deleted files retention
Hi all. I need to set file retention as follows: keep 4 versions of a file forever. If the file is deleted, expire all 4 versions after 14 days. Is there any way to do this in TSM 5.2.2? VE - 4 VD - 4 RE - nolimit RO - 14 My understanding is that this will not work because since my Retain Extra Versions is set to NOLIMIT, my number of deleted files will always remain at 4?

JR- TSM start/stop domino
I am running TSM on an AIX server and I need to stop Domino running on a Windows 2000 server. I am receiving error number ANS1902E. I believe the problem is that even though the TSM CAD and Domino are both running as system accounts, TSM can not stop Domino using the preschedulecmd unless these services are running as a user. Any thoughts on this? thanks

Re: Confused about reclamation
There are a few reasons. We have this happen all the time since we have 100+ tapes on the shelf (old soon to be retired system). 1: If a copypool tape is running reclamation it may need a "TAPEPOOL" tape to copy data to create the new "COPYPOOL / off-site" tape. 2: After a while expiration runs and the tape is no longer 100% full, it reaches the "reclamation" threshhold and runs reclamation to free up that tape. 3: A restore needs that tape and the data is not in the library.

TSM 5.3 upgrade on z/OS
For the z/OS customers out there: We started the process to order TSM 5.3, migrating from 5.2. On 5.2, we was on MLC (Monthly License Charge) which apparently included my client licenses (around 250). On ordering 5.3, we have been told that the MLC option no longer exists and we will have to pay a one-time charge and annual license fee. It turns out the the OTC and ALC are less than the corresponding MLC, but the quote also came back with $128,000 for client licenses, which will knock us out. Anyone else run into this 'gotcha' on the 5.3 upgrade? Thanks Sam Sheppard San Diego Data Processing Corp. (858)-581-9668
Re: Domino Transaction Logs Archive
Bill, Do you know if the logs that are archived after the reboot have already been archived before the reboot? You can issue the command 'domdsmc query logarchive -inactive'. Only the active log at the time of the archive, should have an inactive version. If all the logs were already archived, then the Domino server is not correctly keeping track of which logs have been archived. I assume that when the Domino server is rebooted, the Domino server is stopped gracefully and has a chance to record which logs have been archived. I believe this information is kept in the log control file that resides in the transaction log directory. If the Domino server is stopped correctly and the logs are archived twice you should pursue this with Lotus support. Also, a reboot of the Domino server will not change the DBIID of a database.

One is the standard TSM client, the 2nd is the client for SQL-BACKTRACK. - When the command line is invoked it comes up as the standard TSM client, which does not have access to info about the backups for the SQL-BACKTRACK client. - There does not appear to be a way to invoke dsmc as the SQL-BACKTRACK client - Since I can't get to a command line as the SQL-BACKTRACK client, I cannot do a set access to allow the other client on the node to query files backed up by the SQL-BACKTRACK client using the fromnode option. Any suggestions?

Re: archive in TDP for DBS
One problem I ran into at a client site was with the transaction logs. You can set up different nodenames to backup the once weekly/monthly full backups, but a portion of that backup is a log file. When you do the restore, you do the physical first..the full database and then replay the logs. But the daily logs are under a different nodename to TSM than the partial log that is under the weekly/monthly nodename. So the logical restore will fail. You should also not run the onmsync (?) utility! This will sync the sysutils file with the entries in TSM. If you run this under the daily nodename, then the weekly/monthly backups will be purged from the sysutils table. And I don't believe you can restore if you don't have an entry in the sysutils table. Just my $.02.

Re: Confused about reclamation
If the volume that is being requested is still 100% full, there may be a partial file on it from another volume that is actually being reclaimed. When you remove tapes from the library this can happen. In order to keep up with TSM expiration and normal reclamation you will have to mount tapes. I would not set the volumes to unavailable, specifically for restores and other normal TSM processing. Expiration does not request volumes, it deletes entries from the database and that in turn frees space on volumes. That free space is what is being reclaimed. -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dave Zarnoch Sent: Tuesday, May 24, 2005 7:41 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Confused about reclamation Folks, I'm a little confused about space reclamation...

if ( timestamp-p ( and ( not ( scheduler-p )))) { happy(); }
... Sorry for the mixed metaphor. Anyway, I was hoping that someone had found an undocumented option which activated the 'timestamp output lines' behavior the scheduler evinces. Mr. Sims' quickfacts ( http://people.bu.edu/rbs/ADSM.QuickFacts; hard to mention this too frequently ) mentions this in passing, detailing several ways that don't generate timestamps. I'm playing some games with some backups run from cron (or actually, at this moment from my shell) and I would dearly love to know to within a few seconds when various TSM client processes thought they sent "file ". For the morbidly curious: We're working on a scheme whereby we'll have nearly "continuous backup" coverage for a filespace using only stock TSM bits and pieces. Essentially, we're collecting lists of files which have been modified, and running incrementals -filelist=[foo] to catch only the changed bits, yet still make use of basic TSM codepaths to do so. We were going to point the filelist at a FIFO, but the TSM client claims not to be able to do that, and support got petulant when I asked them to prove they knew what a FIFO was. They haven't called back for a bit. :) So, I'm running microsocpic incrementals every few minutes, but also running a conventional incremental beside them. All of these are running under memoryefficientbackup=yes. But that still means there's opportunity for both processes to back up the same file. We think we've quantified this (it happens about one time per million objects on my filesystem, nightly) but I'd love to be able to use the timestamps on the logs to help refine our understanding of the process. - Allen S.

Re: Poor LanFree performance / mixed LAN xfer??
Matthew - Your posting doesn't specify your OS or TSM software levels, but errno 232 is ECONNRESET in HP-UX, which is simply the "Connection reset by peer". This is to say that the side reporting the errno did not knowingly close the connection, so believes that it was closed by the other side. The meaning of the 131 is less clear. The message context would suggest that it is a TSM internal code, which would mean an API return code value, which would have to be "Internal system error". The presence of the ANR0480W on the server end, with no accompanying messages, would indicate that something in between the server and client caused the loss of connection. So it would seem that you do have communication link problems. Possibly, an intervening firewall has an idle timeout value and dropped the TCP session. The poor performance may be autonegotiation in the NIC and/or switch.

We can match the ANS1005E messages to ANR0480 messages on the TSM server, indicating the client ended the session... 05/24/05 05:12:44 ANS1809W Session is lost; initializing session reopen procedure. 05/24/05 05:12:47 ANS1005E TCP/IP read error on socket = 9, errno = 232, reason : 'Connection reset by peer'. 05/24/05 05:12:47 ANS1809W Session is lost; initializing session reopen procedure. 05/24/05 05:12:48 ANS1809W Session is lost; initializing session reopen procedure. 05/24/05 05:12:50 ANS1005E TCP/IP read error on socket = 9, errno = 232, reason : 'Connection reset by peer'. 05/24/05 05:12:50 cuConfirm: Received rc: -72 trying to receive ConfirmResp verb 05/24/05 05:12:50 ANS1809W Session is lost; initializing session reopen procedure. 05/24/05 05:12:51 ANS1809W Session is lost; initializing session reopen procedure. 05/24/05 05:13:01 ANS1810E TSM session has been reestablished. 05/24/05 05:13:03 ANS1810E TSM session has been reestablished. 05/24/05 05:13:05 cuIdentifyResp: Error 131 reading IdentifyResp from server. 05/24/05 05:13:05 sessOpen: Error 131 receiving IdentifyResp verb from server 05/24/05 05:13:05 cuIdentifyResp: Error 131 reading IdentifyResp from server. 05/24/05 05:13:05 cuIdentifyResp: Error 131 reading IdentifyResp from server. 05/24/05 05:13:05 sessOpen: Error 131 receiving IdentifyResp verb from server 05/24/05 05:13:05 sessOpen: Error 131 receiving IdentifyResp verb from server 05/24/05 05:13:06 cuIdentifyResp: Error 131 reading IdentifyResp from server. 05/24/05 05:13:06 sessOpen: Failure in communications open call. rc: -1 05/24/05 05:13:06 sessOpen: Error 131 receiving IdentifyResp verb from server 05/24/05 05:13:39 cuIdentifyResp: Error 131 reading IdentifyResp from server. 05/24/05 05:13:39 sessOpen: Error 131 receiving IdentifyResp verb from server 05/24/05 05:13:39 cuIdentifyResp: Error 131 reading IdentifyResp from server. 05/24/05 05:13:39 sessOpen: Error 131 receiving IdentifyResp verb from server 05/24/05 05:14:05 ANS1809W Session is lost; initializing session reopen procedure. 05/24/05 05:14:05 ANS1809W Session is lost; initializing session reopen procedure. 05/24/05 05:14:05 ANS1809W Session is lost; initializing session reopen procedure. 05/24/05 05:14:06 ANS1809W Session is lost; initializing session reopen procedure. 05/24/05 05:14:07 cuIdentifyResp: Error 131 reading IdentifyResp from server. 05/24/05 05:14:07 sessOpen: Error 131 receiving IdentifyResp verb from server 05/24/05 05:14:07 cuIdentifyResp: Error 131 reading IdentifyResp from server. 05/24/05 05:14:07 sessOpen: Error 131 receiving IdentifyResp verb from server 05/24/05 05:14:08 unknown thread, fatal error, signal 6 05/24/05 05:14:08 unknown thread, fatal error, signal 6 05/24/05 05:15:11 cuIdentifyResp: Error 131 reading IdentifyResp from server. 05/24/05 05:15:11 sessOpen: Error 131 receiving IdentifyResp verb from server 05/24/05 05:15:11 ANS1028S Internal program error.

Re: query for mangement class
Following on from this... is it possible to backup a clients data using one management class and then apply a different management class at a later date? Thanks Jon -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stapleton, Mark Sent: 23 May 2005 20:45 To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: query for mangement class From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lawrence Clark >Does anyone have a query that shows the mangement class for each node? There is no one-to-one correspondence between a management class and a client node. Clients belong to domains, and each domain has a default management class; if no instructions are given otherwise, a client for a given node will use the default management class. However, use of include statements allows for use of non-default management classes within the node's domain. -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) IBM Certified Advanced Deployment Professional Tivoli Storage Management Solutions 2005 IBM Certified Advanced Technical Expert (CATE) AIX Office 262.521.5627
Domino Transaction Logs Archive
Hello All, Our Domino Server is rebooted automatically every Tuesday at 06:30 hrs., to clear memory says our Notes Administrator. Transaction logging takes place every two hours, and anything between 4 and 12 logs are archived, except once after the reboot every Tuesday where over 140 logs are archived at 08:00 hrs. (the next archive schedule) Is this normal behaviour ? Aren't logs supposed to be archived once only ?
