EOS for TSM 5.4 and 5.5 (AIX)
Hi, Sorry if I ask a previously asked question, Google couldn't find the info I wanted. I am looking at the IBM End-of-Support page (http://www.ibm.com/software/sysmgmt/products/support/eos.html) and can not understand what is the EOS date for TSM 5.4 and 5.5, can somebody help me ? I assumed that they are not EOS now because they are fresh End-of-Marketing (July 16, 2010), so the big question is why Passport Advantage (show previous versions checked) shows only 6.1 and 6.2 binaries ?

Re: Database audit performance
Hi Keith! Been there, done that! During that run the auditdb finds errors and fixes them, but as soon as you start a second run, the audit finds the exact same errors. So although TSM says it fixes the errors, it doesn't. When I run a full audit and a second run afterwards, the second one no longer reports errors. So a partial audit won't work for us...

We had orphan entries in our database that were confined to storage records. I believe TSM Support was able to discern that from the error messages we were seeing in the Activity Log. That allowed us to do the audit on the storage records only, (auditdb diskstorage fix=yes) and that ran much faster than a full audit. In addition, we cleaned all data from the disk pools before starting the audit, and that accelerated the audit by a factor of 10 to 1.

Re: Database audit performance
Hi Paul! Yes, I meant AIX LVM mirroring. The biggest improvement however was achieved by the unload/load. You should test this in your case too.

We're having orphaned database entries, caused by a very old bug, fixed some server releases ago, but only recently discovered. I'm currently trying to find a way to speed-up the auditdb performance. What I'm planning to do is this: 1) backup the database on our production server 2) stop the production server 3) restore the production database on our test server which already used new disks, allocated on our new Vmax. 4) perform an audit fix=yes on this database 5) backup the fixed database and restore it on the production server I already tested the scenario above and it works, but the audit takes too long to finish (17 hours). Since we're backing up a lot of Oracle databases, TSM downtime will be too long, the Oracle recovery logs will fill up and the databases will stop. We are running an AIX TSM server with plenty of memory and multiple HBA to the SAN. Restoring the database runs ok, Topas is showing around 25 Mb/sec disk write speed. I have seen better performance on Vmax disks, but I can live with this. When I start the audit Topas shows a disk read and write speed average less than 1 Mb./sec. CPU average is around 50% and vmstat shows no page in and out. I tried everything: mounting the filespace with cio, dio, using RAW logical volumes, tuning read ahead through ioo, it doesn't make any difference or even gets worse (when using RAW for instance). I'm really out of options here. Something is holding back the audit, but I can't find what! Does anybody have some tips for me? Thank you VERY much in advance!

What is Days between backups field in Admin Center/ISC/TIP
Hello All, Thanks for your help. I have never used the Days between backups parameter in the menu for configuring management classes. I have been asked what is for and do not know as I have never used it. I cannot seem to find anything in the TSM documentation for it either. Thanks Nicholas
Re: What is Days between backups field in Admin Center/ISC/TIP
It is a parameter the restricts how frequently backups of a client can occur. Say it is set to 1 day then those cients cannot perform backups more than once a day. I have used it to control a few backup happy admins here that like to perform a backup after each step of a project which at times equated up to 35 times in a 24 hour period. ~Rick -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ads...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of Nicholas Rodolfich Sent: Thursday, December 02, 2010 4:02 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] What is Days between backups field in Admin Center/ISC/TIP Hello All, Thanks for your help.

Re: What is Days between backups field in Admin Center/ISC/TIP
Thanks for you help Rick, I normally see this set to 0. So does 0 mean no restrictions? (i.e - it can be backup up as many times in a day as wanted) You said Say it is set to 1 day then those clients cannot perform backups more than once a day. This seems strange to me since this parameter refers to a management class, and a management class does not refer to clients, it refers to a specific file space or directory or file(s). How can it prevent a backup from occurring on a client? Maybe, the files that the management class binding calls out can only be backed up once a day? Thanks Again Rick!

I'm trying to figure out what the options are for backing up a VMware version 4 implementation in an all-Linux environment. I've determined that a proxy server is needed still for VADP/vStorage, just as for VCB. It appears that the proxy server must be run on Windows. I'm a bit confused about what's supported, though. So my questions are: --In one place in the client manual, it says that file-level backups are only supported for Windows VMs. I read on another website that TSM only works with VADP for file-level backups as of now, and for full VM backups, VCB is still required. Does this mean that VCB must be present in order to back up Linux guests, and that only full VM backups are available? That doesn't seem right to me, but that's where the bits of information I've run across leads me. --If the answer to the above is yes, does anyone know if there will be more options for Linux VMs any time soon, and what it's likely to be? --Has anyone been able to locate a single, comprehensive resource describing what functions are available in what circumstances and what's required for TSM with VADP? Someone please tell me I'm missing something Thanks!
Re: What is Days between backups field in Admin Center/ISC/TIP
This maps to the FREQUENCY setting that goes in the management class's backup copy group definition. If effectively adds another criterion to incremental backup: that is, the file must have changed AND the file must not have been backed up within the past n days (where n is the frequency setting). For example, assume the file was backed up on Dec 1. Even if the file changes every day, it will not be eligible for incremental backup again until Dec 8, no matter how many times it changes between those dates. The default value is 0 which means that the number of days since the last backup is not a factor. Frequency does not prevent a file from being selectively backed up.
