Tape utilization not logic

2004-09-13 Thread Ameerul Mazli
Hi All,

Why is it the tape utilization (q vol) hits more than
400GB even though the tape can actually utilize about
400GB (compressed)? Why is this happening? Will the
data in the tape still recovarable?

Thanks and regards
Ameerul Madzali

How to schedule

2004-09-08 Thread Ameerul Mazli
HI All,

How do you handle a request to do backup on last
Sunday of each month. This backup (or rather archive)
is to be kept for a year. How can we accommodate this
in TSM (schedule)? One guy is comparing with Veritas
which he claims can do it.

If TSM schedule can't handle it, anyone has done it
anyway thru script or whatever? Please! Maybe i didn't
see the solution here but you guys do.

The request came from the management for their
business policy.

Thanks and best regards
Ameerul Madzali

HELP needed. Can't use rmt3 & rmt4 for SAN backup.

2004-08-10 Thread Ameerul Mazli
Hi All,
I have this scenario on the TSM server:
-TSM Svr 5.2.3
-TSM Client 5.2.2
-TSM SAN 5.2.2
-Tape library 3584 LTO with 4 drives

I have another clientA with SAN attached. It can see
(lsdev -Cc) the 3rd and 4 th drive of the 3584. 1st
and 2nd is by another clientB.

For clientB, after configuring the storage agent and
test the backup, it manage to backup nicely thru
LAN-free with no error.

For clientA, after configuring, tested the backup, it
gives error=46 on the dsmsta, could not mount tape.
But the Tsm serverconsole, a drive has been
mounted(different drive).Why is this?

For client B,on the tsm server i configured the path
for drive to /dev/rmt1 and /dev/rmt2 same as clientA
since that is what is seen using lsdev -Cc tape for
ClientA and ClientB.

The difference for both client is that for clientB
rmt1 on clientB maps excatly to the tsmsvr rmt1. This
is check with lscfg -vl rmt1. But for clientA rmt1
maps to rmt3 of tsmsvr.

The rmt is configured that way to separate the load of
backups for clientA and clientB on to the tape drives.

Pls help me to resolve this.

Thanks and best regards

dsmadmc using non-root id access

2004-08-08 Thread Ameerul Mazli
Hi All,

Has anyone got any idea whether it is possible to
execute dsmadmc with non-root id?

Operators can use web-admin and access using specific
web-admin id. What if the web is 'down' and only
access is telnet? Operator has to telnet but uses
'root' id and then dsmadmc to access the tsm server
admin??? Anyway to avoid using root id to execute the
dsmadmc besides using .profile and run the dsmadmc
immidiately once login? and when exits, logs out of
UNIX?

Can we use a e.g.tsmadm UNIX id and runs dsmadmc? Will
there be any 'side effects'?

Hope to get a reply for this soonest possible.

Thanks and best regards

Weird TSM Storage Agent keep repeating even after removal

2004-07-31 Thread Ameerul Mazli
Hi Anyone,
Environment is:
TSM Svr:
-AIX 5.2
-TSM Svr 5.2.3
-TSM CLient 5.2.2
-Tape LIbrary: 3584LTO with 5 LTO2 drives

TSM Client:
-AIX 5.2
-TSM Client 5.2.2
-TSM SAN Agent 5.2.2

Need help badly here. On the client I did configure
the TSM SAN Agent but then I stopped the services by
killing the process and disable the startup in
/etc/inittab. This shld have killed the session on the
TSM server But weird things happens on the TSM server.
The process is still there. Even when i cancel the
sess manual on the TSM svr, it keep proping up again
sometimes up to 10 sess of the same agent?!?

Why is this? Could you help me to solve this problem.
It is running life on customer site.

They don't have problem backing up to tape but when
they issue a Copy pool backup, the target tape get I/O
error and set to 'Unavailable'. And this is really
irritating.

Pls help me to understand and solve the problem.

Thanks and regards

Help! TSM SysBack 5632 on AIX 5.2 with HACMP problem

2004-07-30 Thread Ameerul Mazli
Hi Anyone,
Got a genuine problem, I think.

Environment is:
TSM Svr (running on 1 LPAR of p690)-
-AIX 5.2
-TSM Svr 5.2.3
-TSM Client 5.2.2
-TSM Sysback 5.6.1
-Tape library: 3584LTO (4 drives)

TSM Client (running on 1 LPAR of p690)-
-AIX 5.2 with HACMP
-TSM Client 5.2.3
-TSM Sysback 5.6.3.2

The TSM Sysback on the TSM server runs fine.I can
create the TSM volume with no problems/errors.

The problem is on the TSM Sysback on the client. When
I try to create a TSM volume thru the SMIT menus, it
gives an error when I set the password:

"BMR0026E Signal 11 received. Program terminating.
Could not set password for TSM server
kuldb11p_sysback"

I tried setting back the password on the TSM svr using
the update node and then try again but still same
problem.

The funny thing is it only happens on the TSM clients
that is running HACMP. Both servers on the same pair
will have the problems.

PLS can anyone help me here.

Hi Neil,

If both nodes (oracle nodes) is referring to the
dsm.opt in the TSM API director, how do you
differentiate the dsm.opt in the TSM API if there are
2 oracle instances (excluding the ba client instance)?
one is tdpo_ori.opt, the other is tdpo_sun.opt.

Ameerul,

On Windows TDP Oracle uses password access generate.
Therefore, the
password is encrypted and stored in the registry. Have
you generated a
password before? In your dsm.opt file makesure that
passwordaccess is
set
to generate and use 'tdpoconf passw' to create a
password in the
registry.
Hope this helps.

Problem in Backing Up TSM client on a different network segments

2003-03-02 Thread Ameerul Mazli
Hi All,
Has anyone have the experience of a TSM server
(Solaris 2.8) on a 188.* segment backing up TSM
clients on a different segments (168.*). They could
not ping each other.

The TSM server has been hooked up with an additional
network card and given another IP (168.*). Now they
can ping each other. The TSM clients (AIX) dsm.opt and
dsm.sys has been pointed to the 168.* ip. Backup can
be done but it is very slow.

Do I need to do anything on the TSM server option file
(dsmserv.opt) or anything else because I didn't change
any TSM server setup? Could I be missing some options?

Hoping for an early and favourable reply from anyone.

Thanks and regards
Ameerul

domino.doc storage manager with hp400ex

2001-12-04 Thread Ameerul Mazli

Hi all,
Need help on this ASAP.

It is like this. This customer has bought a Windows NT
4 SP4 (Netfinity3500) a while ago with HP400ex optical
library (2 drives) attached to it via SCSI.

They have a software, Domino.doc Storage Manager 2.1
that runs on it. They ask me to make it work together.

I know that this software bundles ADSM3.1 together.
And I can't check whether ADSM3.1 can support HP400ex
or not. I know that TSM 3.7 and above does support it.
I couldn't get the ADSMSCSI driver started.

1. Does anyone know whether HP400ex can be supported
by ADSM3.1?

I tried uninstalling the ADSM3.1 and installed the
original ADSM3.1.2.1 CD (not bundle with Domino.doc
Storage Manager). I manage to bring up the ADSMSCSI
driver but could not define the optical library. It
gives the error
"ANR8418E Define library. An I/O error occured while
accessing library" in the adsm error log and

"The description of EventID(11) source(AdsmScsi) could
not be found. It contains the following insertion
strings: \Device\lb6.0.0.3" in the Windows NT event
log.

I have check the ANR error message description but it
does not seem to go anywhere.

2. What should be the next step?

3. If really ADSM3.1 can't work with HP400ex, is there
mentioned anywhere in black or white?

Hope to hear from you guys/ladies soon.

Thanks and regards
Ameerul
