Re: restore volumes list. It's possible??
Hello, I'm looking for a query or sql script that allow me to see what volumes I'll need for a restore process. I want to see the volumes before the starting of the process. If your question is concerning nodes you can try to implement the following actions. We perform this by program in a product (SOS-Log that we sell only in France, sorry) so you'll have to adapt it in SQL (if possible or by script). Start with : select DISTINCT VOLUME_NAME NODE_NAME COPY_TYPE STGPOOL_NAME from VOLUMEUSAGE crossing it with POOL_TYPE from STGPOOLS on STGPOOL_NAME sort by COPY_TYPE of VOLUMUSAGE (BACKUP, ARCHIVE) then sort the result by NODE_NAME Be careful, select on volumeusage is sometime very slow Likewise I need a query or script that allow me to see what volumes I'll need for a backup stgpool process. When I use preview=volumesonly or yes I realize not always ask me the volumes that are in the list this command has generated. Is there another way to do this? Maybe something like (again you'll have to adpat in good SQL syntax) : select volume_name from volumes where last_write_date your date time and stgpool_name = your stgpool your date time is the TSM date time of the last copy Hope this helps If you read french, you can have a look at an example (somehow old) : http://www.sos-restore.com/demolog/log.htm Best regards Christian Bagard Tél :(33) 442 930 813 email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] SOS-Restore - 32 cours Mirabeau - 13100 Aix-en-Provence - France www.sos-restore.com (only french sorry)

Split file problem with TSM 515 and LTO1-3581
Hello, We use TSM 5.1.5 (Win2000 SP3) with primary on disk and copy with 3581-LTO1. One node is a iSeries with BRMS which provides one 80Go file. We use a COPY STGPOOL primary copy (it works fine with Windows nodes on several configurations) But TSM doesn't split this file. 2 possible reasons we see are : - TSM doesn't know how to split BRMS files - TSM doesn't support file splitting with 3581 Can someone suggest me something Thanks Best regards Christian Bagard Tél : (33)4 42 93 08 13 - email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] SOS-Restore - 32 cours Mirabeau - 13100 Aix-en-Provence - France
Re: Split file problem with TSM 515 and LTO1-3581
Hello, Christian - Please post error indications or other evidence which support this being a problem you're seeing, and why it appears to be a problem. thanks, Richard So I try to explain a little more. We use a TSM solution with primary on disk and copy on 1 drive library (3581 in this case). It allows TSM solutions on small sites with near the same reliability and efficiency than big ones. Each monday we put in empty tapes. Each day, an incremental copy is made on tape (LTO1 100Go). Each incremental is made of (we suppose) 1 big BRMS file (70 Go, no incremental, no compression) and a lot of small windows files (5Go for the whole). Fisrt day, 25% remains free on tape 1 But the second day, TSM does't use these 25%, but again 75% on tape 2, and so on for the following days. It seems as if TSM begins with the BRMS file, can't split it, takes the next tape, writes the BRMS file and continues with small files. We would like to understand why, in this case, TSM doesn't split file because we get only a 75% filling. 2 possible reasons we see are : - TSM doesn't know how to split BRMS files (but file is already on disk, it's no more really a BRMS file ?) - TSM doesn't support file splitting with 3581 (1 drive) ? If somebody has an idea, thanks. Best regards Christian Bagard [EMAIL PROTECTED] SOS-Restore - 32 cours Mirabeau - 13100 Aix-en-Provence - France
Re: Libraries LTO problems with WIN2000 SP4 and TSM 5.2.2.0
Hello Wanda, You are right, I have to be more accurate. I sent this message because of messages (see here after) stating that TSM didn't recognize library (after reboot) or with analogous symptoms. And we had the same problem with 2 customers (one of them had made several reboots of his server). The only way was to delete/define the library. First we thought it was a TSM versioning problem (5.1.8.0 then 5.2.2.0), and only with library LTO one-drive. But it's not. After research, IBM support said they have found and that it is a Adaptec driver bug (and to patch LTO too). Our understanding of the situation today is : With only Win2000 SP4 after some reboots (4, 5) the Adaptec driver (at least the one currently provided with the card) looses library definition and causes that TSM doesn't recognize any more the library (so TSM defines a new one with a default name, ...). As I said, we are testing and, if needed, I will confirm and give more details.

Re: Off site copy with one drive???
Hello Mark, One-drive libraries are pretty much worthless False With our add-on SOS-MB (sorry only french) we use this technology. and it works fine (SOS-MB is promoted in France by IBM/Tivoli) We guarantee a day - 1 recovery of the backup server (the worst case) and without the DRM of TSM If we have one drive, we suppose that volumes of datas to backup are not very big The primary storage pool on disk must be big enough Tape drive is only for offsite tapes And the trick is to use a backup strategy with no need for reclaiming offsite tapes. In this way, there is no reclaim at all (and no collocation) which is very practical in little companies with no specialist. Joking with your style : Do yourself a BIG favor. Think about this strategy. (For myself, I know, I have to think about improving my english) By example : 1 - You have 400 Go of datas, a disk of 400 Go and a LTO 3581 2 - First day of use : you do a full copy on tapes and each day after you copy all the new things of the storage pool disk on tapes 3 - At the end of the week (by example) you put the tapes offsite with the database on an other tape 4 - You clear the disk storage pool and delete the same in the database 5 - You take a new set of tapes for the next week and do the same than the previous week 6 - You can rotate on 3 sets, by example I hope it will help Regards Christian Bagard SOS-restore - Aix-en-Provence - France [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.sos-restore.com (in french) - Original Message - From: Mark Stapleton [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 01, 2002 1:19 PM Subject: Re: Off site copy with one drive???

I can backup to disk, then backup the diskpool to the copypool. (this way I should have all my data onsite and offsite). Exactly. You backup from diskpool to offsite pool, and then you migrate from diskpool to primary tape pool. How do I then reclaim my copypool volumes? You can't. TSM doesn't support a disk-based reclamation pool for reclamation of offsite tape pools. I can't reclaim to disk like I do with my onsite volumes for some reason (I don't see why not since the DB can track which file is on which onsite tape mount it and copy it to my reclaimpool on disk. Once that is done it can mount a scratch or copypool volume and the offsite volumes would be reclaimed no? One-drive libraries are pretty much worthless. Particularly if you have large-capacity tape volumes, your disk-based reclamation pool needs to be at least 40% of the maximum size of the tape volume.
