TSM for SYS-back Recovery!!
HI All, Any one has tried the TSM for sys-back on AIX.. whats the recovery method of this... Any help will be appreciated Thanks, Sachin
Re: TSM for SYS-back Recovery!!
Sysback works great and is cheap, too! Not only can you create backups and boot and restore from standalone media, but it also integrates with your NIM server. And if THAT's not enough for a posting on a TSM listserv, you can send your sysback backups to TSM to store, and restore from there, too. When you boot to restore (either from your sysback-enabled NIM server or your standalone floppy/DVD/tape), you are presented with a menu that not only allows you to Just Restore your system (again either from TSM, standalone media, or NIM), but also lets you make changes to the LVM structure when you do. Dunno why more AIX shops don't use it; it's been a hit wherever I've seen it.

Re: TSM for SYS-back Recovery!!
I agree. Just use the AIX install cd/dvd and follow the instructions to reload via sysback. We use a cronjob to backup our machines via sysback on a weekly basis. Then use the client to backup data daily.

So run some automated process at the DR site which evaluates the DB Volume status and re-run the format when it no longer matches. Then when the balloon goes up, you've already got a formatted volume. EricEricEricEricEricEricEricEricEricEricEricEricEricEricEricEricEricEric :) - Allen S. Rout

This gets back to the site decisions made as to the platform choice for the TSM server, when management makes an informed choice as to which to buy based upon all factors. A platform which allows the use of raw logical volumes, such as AIX, completely eliminates the need for such formatting and allows disaster recovery to be immediately initiated. This can make an immense difference to a business's recover time. We as technicians have to live with the choices made by others, but at a minimum we can point out the consequences of a given platform choice. Richard Sims
