SV: Linux ext4 filesystems - is anyone using them for devt=file storage?

2010-10-29 Thread Christian Svensson
Hi Colwell,
I'm using EXT4 on 2 TSM Servers. One of them do I have full controll of and it 
works fine.
The other Linux system to I only see twice a year. But the customer normally 
drop me emails if he got something wrong.

But the same problem with EXT4 as with EXT3 is that you need to pre allocate 
all volumes before and not let TSM create them on-demand.

Ämne: Linux ext4 filesystems - is anyone using them for devt=file storage?

Hi,



I am running 2 6.1 servers on rhel 5.5.  I am doing a lot of doing
dedup.  All primary storagepools are

devicetype file.  Current I have 10 16TB ext3 filesystems on raid 6
Sata.  All volumes are

scratch allocations.



I have another 96TB ready to go.  I haven't made the filesystems yet.
So my question is if anyone

is using ext4 yet as the filesystem type for TSM storagepools.



From my initial reading, I think the extent allocation feature would be
very useful.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4



I opened a pmr today to ask if IBM would support servers using ext4, and
they just called back!

They will support servers using ext4 for file storage.  (But not for
client backups yet).



Also, is anyone using ext4 for the database?



Thanks,



Bill Colwell

Re: TDP Exchange indiviual mailbox restore failure

2010-10-29 Thread Tyree, David
We use a product from Quest Software, for our Exchange 2003. 
http://www.quest.com/recovery-manager-for-exchange/

they say it supports Exchange 2007 and 2010 as well. Our only experience
has been with the 2003 version. 

And that experience has been great. We use to recover emails that users

Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] TDP Exchange indiviual mailbox restore failure

Hi Del,

 As Cory stated and is documented:

 For Exchange 2010, both the Client Access (CAS) role and the Mailbox
 role must be installed on the machine where the
 Data Protection for Exchange mailbox restore is being performed.

yes, I've read that document. Since we cannot go that road, I'm looking
for alternatives. Is there any other (probably even third-party) tool
that can be used to extract one user's mailbox from a complete Exchange
database restore?

 This is a current limitation that will require a fix from Microsoft
 and possibly some updates to Data Protection for Exchange
 to resolve completely.

 IBM is working with Microsoft to resolve this limitation.

Is there any timeframe for that? Any technote by Microsoft?

 Until a fix is available, the only workaround is to perform
 the IMR restore on a machine that has the CAS role installed.

The machine that has the CAS role installed has no mailbox role, and no
access to storage. That will stay that way.

I'm sorry to say that IMR with CAS and mailbox roles separated are an
absolute requirement in our setup, so if there's no solution in a
not-too-long timeframe (and be it with some third-party tool), we have
to look for a completely different backup solution for Exchange.

Re: Linux ext4 filesystems - is anyone using them for devt=file storage?

2010-10-29 Thread Zoltan Forray/AC/VCU
 They will support servers using ext4 for file storage.  (But not for
client backups yet).

Huh?  What do you mean by client backups?  Do you mean as in file device
class?

We did not realize the filesystem type would be such an issue.  We just
built 2-systems using SAN storage and were wondering why one took almost
2x-longer wallclock time to format the storage volumes than the other. The
person who installed the OS realize the slow system was ext2 while the
faster one is ext4 so he reformatted the slow one to be ext4.
Originally I had planned to use the SAN space as file dev class but have
switched to 200GB formatted volumes (for 5TB space).

However, we have noticed the system that was originally ext2, is
generating these strange errors when formatting the SAN space, that we
have not been able to identify nor resolve.  If anyone else has seen these
or can offer some suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Christian,

thanks for the reply, I am glad to hear that someone else is using it.

I haven't had a problem using scratch volumes.  Could things be faster?  Sure, 
but
all the work is getting done.  And I am expecting ext4 to improve things with
extent allocation.  I am also changing the hardware for the db which should
speed things up too.

Thanks again,

 Huh?  What do you mean by client backups?  

no, as a filesystem supported and recognized by dsmc. To fully support all 
features of the filesystem, like extended attributes, the client must know how 
to access those. Also, the client must be able to recognize sparse files and 
backup and restore those correctly.

Compatibilities between V6 and V5 servers

2010-10-29 Thread Zoltan Forray/AC/VCU
A few questions about compatibility between sever version.

I know that you can't directly export from a V6.2 server and import to
V5.x server.  Can you do this via tape or does the same rule apply?

How about between a 6.2 and 6.1 server?

Library managers and library clients?   I know the docs say the highest
version server should/must be the library manager as far as documented
support/compatibility.  However, I have been running my 6.1.x server as a
library client to the 5.5 library managers without any problems.  Now with
2-new 6.2 servers looming, I am working towards shifting library manager
functionality to the 6.2 servers. But I want a safety net in case a
library manager server fails/is unavailable (currently one server manages
the TS1120 drives and another the TS1130 drives but all servers are
cross-defined to each library manager server).

Has anyone tested/configured a 6.2 server as a library client to a 5.5
server?
