Re: Exchange 2010 Error
Ho Robert, It appears that you may have corruption in one or more of your Exchange database and/or log files. When the Exchange integrity check fails (excvssic.exe), DP/Exchange will fail the backup according to Microsoft rules. Since the backup cannot succeed, log files are not getting truncated, which is what is causing your backup to expand. If you look at the audit file (dc5c23b0-fcd5-477a-866e-4e91bdae89f2_Audit.txt) you will see which database/log files are being identified as being corrupt. Once you identify the bad database, you can then back up the rest of them to make sure that your backups continue. You may then need to fix the corruption in the Exchange database/log files. (Trying dismounting the database and running Exchange tools like ESEUTIL to help you diagnose this. Contact Microsoft if you need help diagnosing Exchange database/file corruption.) If the DP/Exchange information I supplied above does not help you move forward, please open a PMR with IBM support.

preview incremental backup?
Is there a way a TSM client admin can preview what an incremental backup is going to do? That is, without copying the new/changed files to a storage pool? Someone here would like to do that. The only ideas I could offer were 'query inclexcl' and comparing the timestamps on files and directories to the end time of the last good backup. Thank you, Keith
Re: preview incremental backup?
Like the 'dsmc PREview Backup' command? :-)

Another export question
Question - this may be obvious but I want to make absolutely sure Does exporting data at the same time it is backing up cause a issue? Example: I am exporting a client node from TSM SERVER A to TSM SERVER B and it's a large export and it has run more than a day. Can I allow the backups to run (on the TSM Server A original server) while the export is still going on without causing a problem? It will eventually export any new data over to the new TSM SERVER correct? Note: I created the node on the TSM SERVER B but it's going to backup on there yet of course Thanks

Re: Another export question
I just finished one of these. I did not back up data to the original server, tsm-a in your case. I set all backups to occur to tsm-b. Just did not run expiration on tsm-serverb until the export was finished. If things got tight, I suspended the export to free up resources, then resumed as necessary. It was very slow. About two terrabyte in something around 96 hours. Won't do that again unless forced. Hope this helps.

Re: Another export question
Gary Thanks! I suspended the export also during the evening, but I had dissociated the node from backup on the original TSM Server A so it didn't backup. However this export is taking long and I don' want to go without another backup so I would like for the node to backup (on TSM SERVER A). I am thinking I could suspend the export and let it just backup to TSM SERVER A as usual then in the morning dissociate the backup and start the export and it will eventually export the new backups data over to TSM SERVER B. Of course that would slow up the export and it will run just that much longer. Best Regards -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Lee, Gary D.
