3494 library questions

2011-12-14 Thread Lee, Gary D.
I have two 3494 libraries at different locations.
I would like to have both defined to both of my tsm servers.

Is it possible to define two libraries in the ibmatl.conf file, and if so, how 
to define them to tsm?

If not, am I correct that the other option is to share the libraries as 
necessary defining appropriate tsm servers as library managers?

Thanks for the assistance.

A library manager is mandatory to coordinate library access.  Than can be a
standalone instance or the existing instance that has exclusive access (the
latter being the easier option with an environment of this size)

Ang: 3494 library questions

2011-12-14 Thread Daniel Sparrman
Hi Gary

The ibmatl.conf file should be able to hold more than one 3494 library by 
adding a new line with the new library definition.

If i'm not mistaken, each line should contain 4 or 5 lines separated by tab. 
Field 1 should be the 3494 symbolic name, 2nd field should be IP adress or tty 
if serial attached, 3rd field should be the short hostname and the 4th field 
should (if applicable) be the HA3494 IP adress (if HA is used). 

That's for AIX, if you're running something else, it might be different.

Best Regards

Daniel

Old friends and re-introduction

2011-12-14 Thread Geoff Gill
Hello,
This isn't a TSM question just more of a reintroduction. A year ago I was let 
go from saic when my wife was transferred to Dallas. Although we all know it's 
possible to manage the system remotely, and knowing they have offices in Plano, 
I expected to work from here, especially since the DR site is here, but that 
wasn't to be so I've been out of TSM work since then.
I recently rejoined the list to keep in touch and somewhat up to date,   While 
I've had a few calls unfortunately all have unded up in me being over 
qualified as they say. I would have preferred an offer and given an 
opportunity to make the decision to accept no matter what the work or pay but 
none have worked out that way unfortunately.
While driving Zamboni's for 15 years helped me land work in Allen, it isn't 
quite the same, nonetheless it helps pay bills.
Hope you guys are all well, I see many of the same names, Richard, Andrew, Bill 
and others so I'm glad to see the community is hanging together.

2011-12-14 Thread Daniel Sparrman
Hi Steven

A TSM library manager isnt mandatory in a 3494 library environment. If the 
libraries are partitioned, he can just connect his two hosts to each library 
and assign access through the 3494 CU.

Which is simplest is just a matter of how the existing environment looks. If 
the libraries are already partitioned for the two hosts, no TSM library manager 
is needed, just make an entry for each library in the ibmatl.conf and assign 
access in the 3494 CU.

if the libraries are not partitioned, and there is limited 3494 competence 
on-site, perhaps TSM library sharing is the way to go. It all depends on Gary's 
requirements (like, can we share volumes between the two TSM servers, or do 
they need to be divided).

Its been a long time since I've worked with 3494's.  But I don't think you even 
have to partition them.  You just have to use different category codes for the 
different systems.

2011-12-14 Thread Steven Langdale
Hello Daniel

Yes, you are 100% right.

I suppose I was coming from the position that Gary already had most of it
setup for a TSM library managing config, as the existing instances appear
to be managing a library each.

As is often the case, there are multiple ways to achieve the desired
results.  Which is one if the benefits of this list :)

Re: 3494 library questions

2011-12-14 Thread Lee, Gary D.
To clarify.

Two tsm servers tsm1 and tsm2.
Two librarys lib1 and lib2

Tsm1 is  connected to lib1 directly.
Tsm2 is connected to lib2.

Lib2 is actually in our offsite location, and I would like to create a 
connection from tsm1 to lib2 and get our current offsite data moved into it. 
Then, I can copy storage pool directly to lib2 and illiminate carrying tapes to 
a static offsite storage location.

Both libraries are 3494s containing ts1120 drives.

No library sharing is being used at the present time, but has not been ruled 
out.

Hopefully that has clarified things a bit.

Questions are

1. If I define both 3494s to one machine, how to define them both to tsm?  By 
serial number?

2. If I can't define both to a single server, will library sharing with tsm 
work?

Some sample definitions would be helpful.

disabe/enable a sched via command line

I'm trying to figure out to enable and disable client schedules 
from the command line. I've looked over the online help and elsewhere but no

If the command was for an admin sched I would do update sched 
something type=admin active=yes/no . But I don't see a similar command for

The closest thing I can come up with is 
Disable server

But this prevents all client connections.

To disable schedules, add the line

Disablescheds yes

To the dsmserv.opt file, then restart the server.

When you want to restart schedules, comment out the line, and restart the tsm 
server again.

Hi David,

You can :
- lock the node,
- put an expire date for the sched wich is yesterday (today-1), if the node is 
the only one using this sched,
- delete association, if it's'definitive.

Choose one.

Occasionally on a friday we'd get a request to skip some backups over the 
weekend. If you set the start date for the schedule to Monday's date, you 
accomplish no backups running over the weekend, and you don't have to 
remember to do anything on Monday to get the schedule working again.

If you want to stop backups for a day, you could do something like update 
schedule domain_name schedule_name STARTDate=today+1?

is needed, just make an entry for each library in the ibmatl.conf and assign 
access in the 3494 CU.

if the libraries are not partitioned, and there is limited 3494 competence 
on-site, perhaps TSM library sharing is the way to go. It all depends on Gary's 
requirements (like, can we share volumes between the two TSM servers, or do 
they need to be divided).

A library manager is mandatory to coordinate library access.  Than can be a
standalone instance or the existing instance that has exclusive access (the
latter being the easier option with an environment of this size)

-Gary Lee wrote: -

1. If I define both 3494s to one machine, how to define them both to

In the more recent releases of TSM, you would execute a 'define library'
command and a 'define path' command for each library. The two 'define
path' commands would use different values for the 'device' parameter.
Under Linux, the value for each 'device' parameter is the same as the
first field in the appropriate line of /etc/ibmatl.conf. As far as I
can recall, all Unix implementations except AIX also work this way.
Under AIX, the value for the 'device' parameter is the name of a
special file in /dev used to communicate with the appropriate library.
I don't know how the special file names are related to the contents
of /etc/ibmatl.conf.

I have no idea what you would do under TSM releases predating the
introduction of the 'define path' command.

Re: disabe/enable a sched via command line

2011-12-14 Thread Jerry Michalak
In TSM you define a schedule and then associate the nodes to 1 or more 
schedules using the define assoc command.

To stop a backup for a node, look at the delete assoc command and then later 
you can restart it using define assoc.

OK, so TSM2 and lib2 are both offsite? You're implying that but it's not
100% clear.

I'm not particularly familliar with TS1120's are these SCSI or FC attach?

What connectivity is available between the 2 sites?

 To clarify.

 Tsm1 is  connected to lib1 directly.
 Tsm2 is connected to lib2.

 Lib2 is actually in our offsite location, and I would like to create a
 connection from tsm1 to lib2 and get our current offsite data moved into
 it. Then, I can copy storage pool directly to lib2 and illiminate carrying
 tapes to a static offsite storage location.

 Both libraries are 3494s containing ts1120 drives.

 No library sharing is being used at the present time, but has not been
 ruled out.

 Hopefully that has clarified things a bit.

 Questions are

 1. If I define both 3494s to one machine, how to define them both to tsm?
  By serial number?

 2. If I can't define both to a single server, will library sharing with
 tsm work?

 Some sample definitions would be helpful.

 A TSM library manager isnt mandatory in a 3494 library environment. If the

If you change the period units to onetime, the start date will have been 
passed and the schedule will not start until you change it back to a recurring 
unit.  The Period will also change to 0 when onetime is selected, so the 
reversal will have to set both back to their original values.

Try setting the expiration of the schedule to a prior day. i.e. upd sched 
DOMAIN 0100 exp=12/11/2011

Then when you want the schedule reactivated set back to NEVER

upd sched NOARCHIVE 0100 exp=Never

Not sure if this will do what you want but its worth testing.
