Migration duration default?

Linux Server - 6.1.5.100

Is there a default value for manual Migration, that I am not aware of? I
never use the DUR value.  Yesterday around 14:40, I started a manual
migration (mig stg backuppool lo=0).  This morning at 7:26am I see the
message:

ANR4925W Migration process 1727 terminated for storage pool BACKUPPOOL -

it should have run until lo=value, which I set to 0.

Do you use a maintenance script?

When configured you have the option to specify the duration value,
perhaps this is where the message is coming from.

Query the script using: q script script-name f=l

And check the lines regarding migration

Oricle backups

Well, I have now been tasked with backing up our Banner system.
This uses oricle as its back end db.

Seeking the wisdom of the group as to the best way to deal with oricle.

Is there now a tdp for oricle?

Any information / experiences welcome.

There's a TDP for Oracle; some of my Oracle clients are on Linux on Intel. 

I'm not sure if any of our Oracle clients are black box back ends, but it 
just plugs into rman, so even for the black boxes, it should be simple enough.

Re: delete volume failure under TSM 5.5.6

2012-04-11 Thread Prather, Wanda
Not sure if you mean the actual external storage is really gone?

If the volume is still physically accessible, run audit volume 
/TSM_POOL/19/data19 fix=yes.

If you haven't done so already, do: restore volume /TSM_POOL/19/data19 
preview=yes
Look in the activity log to see if it gives you volume names from your copy 
pool, so you can recreate the data (on other volumes in TSM_POOL ) from your 
copy pool tapes.  If you can, the volume will go empty and you can delete it 
without the discardd=yes.

If the storage is really physically gone, I think you could resort to creating 
a fake /TSM_POOL/19/data19 on another physical volume, then run audit volume 
/TSM_POOL/19/data19 fix=yes.

Linux HBA config for tape

2012-04-11 Thread Steve Harris

Hi All

TSM 6.3.0.0 server under RHEL 5.7. on an IBM xSeries, Qlogic HBAs

I'm running to 2xLTO5's in a TS3310 library and have 4Gb path to the
drives. The data compresses at about 1.5:1.
I'm seeing long-running backup stg tasks average 140MB/sec from disk to
tape or tape to tape.  That is good, but it could be better.  140MB/sec
is LTO5 rated raw capacity so with this data I should be seeing 200 or a
bit more.

In a windows environment, you go into the Qlogic SanSurfer software and
tick a box that says this is a tape HBA and increases the block-size of
each transfer.  How do you do this under Linux?

Regards

Steve.

Re: Oricle backups

2012-04-11 Thread Grigori Solonovitch
We are backing up Oracle using TDPO + TSM Client for many years under AIX:
- install required TSM Client (do not forget about API modules - it is 
important for TDPO);
- install required TDP for Oracle;
- define dedicated node on TSM Server for each Oracle server (for example, 
node for files, node_ORA for all databases on the same node);
- configure TSM Client  TDPO (dsm.opt and dsm.sys);
- create option file for each database;
- configure data compression or/and encryption, if required;
- use tdpoconf to save password for each database;
- link Oracle and TDPO (under AIX ln -fs  /usr/lib/libobk64.a 
$ORACLE_HOME/lib/libobk.a;
- create RMAN scripts for full database backup, incremental database backup, 
archive redo logs backup, restore database, incomplete restore database, etc (I 
can share some RMAN scripts, but not for Windows);
- create required TSM schedules.
 Usually it is not easy to do initial setup and build scripts, but it works 
fine for years with minimal intervention
