Re: Dell Server for TSM Server ?
FYI My preference is the p-series for AIX it does more work and very flexible for TSM, I would use the p 570 and use LPARS for the TSM Library Manger if I had the choice of machine to deploy for TSM. As I am running currently in our TSM server farm of 3 P-series machines (p 630, 6H1, and an older M80) all AIX 5.300-03. Great TSM servers,but other have decided that it is time to deploy another venders machine to save on cost. We are backing up 4.5 to 5 TB each night with about 100 RMAN for Oracle backups using TDPO.

However, according to the DiskXtender 6.0 Admin Guide dated Jan 2006, If you already use or plan to use Tivoli Storage Manager Server (TSM) as a data storage or data backup system, File System Manager allows you to configure a TSM system as a media service so that you can migrate files from File System Manager to a TSM server. This method utilizes the storage devices supported and managed by the TSM server. So at least for now, the TSM compatible version is still being marketed.

Re: How are TSM admins using SATA for cache pools?
Gus Thanks for all the information, just how much cache is in the array and how many controllers are you using for how many clients? I think that the way to go is the SVC with EMC tiered storage at the back-end ? Thanks again, this is helpful information. Justin Case Jin Bae Chi [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Sent by: ADSM: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Dist Stor cc Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject .EDU Re: How are TSM admins using SATA for cache pools? 07/13/2005 03:02 PM Please respond to ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] .EDU Justin, I'm not sure how many clients are doing LAN-based or/and SAN-based backups, but if you don't have any performance problem now with given config, most likely you will not get the performance hit using SATA diskpools. The reason being is that most 'slowness' during backup,if any, is in client/server processing time, not at device level even with SATA because host will get the I/O acknowledgement from the cache on the controllers. Having said that, if you run out of cache, write-miss will happen direct to SATA drives, which will be a big problem. So, plan ahead with providing enough caching for all write I/Os; If you're thinking IBM, DS 4300s would be just fine, but bringing them under SVC sounds even better in terms of integrating with existing ESS. If EMC, see Tab's comment. I'm running IBM solution with SVC and it works fine for me. Balancing the load through LAN (jumbo frame) and LAN free with virtual tapes (3592) and multiple LAN/SAN cards always will help to cope with limited backup window for that much data. Also, when possible, combining flashcopy/volumecopy/snapshot at the storage level and use TSM -snapshotroot option would be other helpful options. When all LAN and SAN pipe get full during backup, you may have no chioce, but snapshot of volumes. After all, it may not be a quick and simple to introduce SATA in TSM environment, but it certainly gives viable options for hardworking TSM admins like you. Gus [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/12/05 8:13 PM Justin, My concerns are that we will slow down the client backups when we have so many clients running in a small backup window. If we use SATA or FC ATA drive for the primary disk storage pool. We use ATA in an EMC Clariion as primary disk storage pools. We keep TSM caching turned OFF, simply because the disks are so large that caching doesn't buy us much. We have found that using EMC five-disk RAID-3 arrays for disk pools yields a consistent 40-50 MB/s when pushed by our 2-way 6H1. We use EMC PowerPath to load-balance the data paths to the LUNs. On the other hand, because the ATA hot spare is in the TSM pod, we also created a four-disk RAID-5 array. On that array, we're lucky if we peak at 18 MB/s and sustained performance is usually 12 MB/s or less. All measurements obtained via topas. EMC Clariion code is optimized for (4 x n + 1) disk arrays. I don't know about IBM's. So that's a factor in the performance difference between the two types of arrays. Our two RAID-3 arrays are 1188 GB each, and our one RAID-5 array is 891 GB. We target our file servers to the RAID-3 arrays and have not observed any performance issues. Our Domino and Oracle databases write straight to LTO-1 tape. We point small application servers and CAD workstations at the RAID-5 array, and for those clients, performance is not really an concern. If a backup takes a few minutes longer, so what? We have about 160 clients backing up between 8 pm and 6 am. We have no issues about meeting backup windows since all backups are hot. Our largest file server has almost two million files, and a typical backup takes about five hours. Most of that is client directory scanning and we are considering using journaling when we go to TSM 5.3 in a couple months. Also, that server is now hosted by VMWare so all I/O has to pass through the VMWare kernel. We have seen a performance drop using VMWare, especially when sending to ATA disks. On last night's backup of that file server, the average network data transfer rate was just under 10 MB/s. We can live with that. I've personally seen the 6H1 swallow 70 MB/s through its NIC so I know the TSM server is not a bottleneck. Just info. Tab Trepagnier TSM Administrator Laitram, L.L.C.

OK May be I was not clear what we would use the SATA or FC ATA for would be the primary disk storage pools for nightly backup window then next morning we would be migrating the backup data to tapes ( FC 3592 jaguar drives ), current primary storage pools are Enterprise class (shark disks) and our disk storage pool is currently 1.7 TB for nightly backup that is what we call cache pool, on one TSM Server and another TSM server we have 1.6 TB of primary storage pool, then we have a small TSM server that has 1/2 TB of primary storage pool. In all we backup up 513 clients nightly with the 3 TSM servers and data that is backed up runs between 2.7 TB to 3.2 TB. in a backup window of 6 to 8 hours.

As you mentioned, you may not need the enterprise class stg for these particular diskpools unless your SLA requires certain strictness in performance. Because of the nature of SATA, write I/Os will be troublesome in any case, so make sure that the controller have enough cache and destage it later. Some people make mistake buying with single controller config, but remember that you can't afford to lose it during client backups. Look for the new SATA II which comes with a lot of fixes and also, TSM takes pretty much any disks that OS sees as available so consider giving multiple diskpools. Depending on what tape storage you have, but writing direct to tape device today is not a bad idea in many cases, so consider not only diskpool for immediate writes, but also tape devices such as FC LTO2 or LTO3. For the better pricing, ATA drives with proper RAID config could be considered. When configured correctly, SATA drives will be performing as good as other types of disks. I've been running and happy with them for a while for TSM and other applications. Hope this helps. Gus [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/11/05 10:01 PM How are TSM admins using SATA disks for cache pools ?

We have a mixed tapes in our 3494 library we have 3590 20Gb tape (shorts) and we have 3590 extended tapes and I need to make a count of the 3590 20Gb tapes, my question is there a select cmd to an mtlib cmd that would return the count of the 3590 20Gb tape even if they are in use or scratch tapes ? Thanks Justin

moved file on Netware ?
We have a question on an issue that came on a Netware box, that a user moved some of directory tree from the original backup tree to another tree. Then we had a restore request for the original tree which was moved. So we could not find any files to restore. We had the default backup copy group set to version exist 2, version delete 1, retain extra 30, and retain only 365. So why was there not any inactive files to restore for the original tree? Need help in an explanation of what happen. TSM client code 5.2.2.0 TSM server code 5.2.2.3 OS AIX 5.1.0.5 64bit So is a move of files on a system from one branch to another not a delete?

You do not need a TEC. You must have a TSM server at least 5.1.8 or 5.2.2 (It may work at earlier levels, but is not supported). If you have a WIn2K TSM server at 5.2.2 or above, TOR is already installed, along with the server code. If you have a lower level Win2K TSM server, or a non-Win2K TSM server, you can run TOR on some other Win2K, Win2003, or WinXP machine. TOR is a separate windows application, nicely packaged. Installing it on a WIn2K or WInXp desktop works nicely. It has no hooks into TSM code, it just issues queries and formats the output into html or email for you. It is more about doing daily monitoring for errors and problems than collecting usage data; it won't replace the accounting log, and has nothing really about tape usage. To install, first go here: ftp://service.boulder.ibm.com/storage/tivoli-storage-management/patches/serv er/NT/5.2.2.2/ Download JUST the TSMCON5222_WIN.exe package to your desktop (assuming you have WIn2K or WInXP). Execute it to install on your desktop. NOW look in the Program Files\tivoli\tsm\console directory, there is a nice README with a lot of information. Look in the 5.2.2 (not 5.2.0) TSM for Windows Admin Guide, there is a chapter on TSM Operational Reporter that tells you how to configure it. It's very simple to set up, it really takes only a few clicks to start generating reports. It's a very nice starter kit for new TSM admins. You can do a limited amount of customizing, but if your scripts are complex, TOR probably will not replace them.

Re: Define Drive mystery in SCSI library

The previous five drives are OK and working, but TSM (5.1.6.5 on AIX 5.2) cannot see the three new ones. The existing 5 drives, named drive0-drive4, have Element Numbers 128-132. The problem is when I do tsm: ADSMdefine drive atllib drive5 element=133 ANR8366E DEFINE DRIVE: Invalid value for ELEMENT parameter. ANS8001I Return code 3. I'm probably missing something simple here. Here's what I've tried already. Restarting the server, and rebooting AIX. The new drives were visible to AIX as soon as I ran cfgmgr, at the SCSI addresses expected. I used smit to define them as Tivoli Storage Manager Devices. Everything went according to expectations, except that TSM won't recognize the Element Numbers of the new drives. I tried all possible element numbers in the range, in case the ATL guy miswired something. Nothing worked in TSM even though AIX seemed very happy about these new drives. I even tried undefining and redefining one of the existing drives (and its Path, of course) and that worked OK. I can't even get far enough to do a define path until I get it to accept the new element numbers. What obvious, simple thing am I overlooking?

Re: TSM and Shark disk

Almost the same environment that we have currently and the biggest issues are that when you need to fetch file back to disk it will use all of the tape drives that are available. Another issue is that we were on a daily conference call for out system with DiskXtender2000 running and when DiskXtender2000 was fetching files we had issues with the CIFS share becoming unavailable daily and some days many time having this issue.

The problem is not that you are only backing up 12,222 files, but unless you are using the Journaling service, TSM has to look at each one of those 4,000,000+ files to see if it needs to back it up or not. The 10 hours is being spent doing this. We have many clients in this situation, when we implement the Journaling service, we take this 10 - 12 hour back ups and make them 5 - 10 minutes! I would be concerned with losing connection though, it could just be that the client is taking so long to process at its end that it will not talk to the TSM server often enough.

Currently we are trying to implement DX2000(I know Legato owns it, politics have pushed this solution), but backup and overall performance of the box has crawled while drivers and services are enabled. I'll address this last item: HSM works well in the following environment: 1) the client is a large file server with a high percentage of static, unaccessed files; 2) the tape library has a fast mount and seek time (the IBM 3575 comes to mind); and 3) the client has a large *fast* processor. Disk Xtender 2000 is pretty hard on the processor during the windows you set for its activity. I would *never* run it during the production day, and I would not run it during backup times. I wish that OTG had developed a TSM-compliant HSM client for Windows, instead of an HSM server. I wish wish wish that Tivoli would create an HSM client for Windows. I know it will never happen, because of the robust server functionalities that Microsoft's server OSs have never had.

Re: Question on mgmt for TDP for ORACLE running RMAN
Thanks for explanation So the Oracle DBA has to run RMAN to delete the files older than 30 days as required? Or can it be ran from TSM Server? Justin David Longo [EMAIL PROTECTED]@VM.MARIST.EDU on 09/12/2002 10:02:32 AM Please respond to ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by:ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] To:[EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject:Re: Question on mgmt for TDP for ORACLE running RMAN You have set it up correctly. TDPO doesn't actually use TSM versioning to delete old backups. That is done with RMAN scripts on the client where Oracle resides. Look at your RMAN documentation. There should be a sample script installed also. Basically you set up the script to delete data older than x number of days. Deletes this data from RMAN catalog and TSM server. David Longo [EMAIL PROTECTED] 09/12/02 09:39AM Ha! one more question or verification for default mgmt for TDP for ORACLE running RMAN I have it set up as listed below that since ORACLE TDP uses unique name convention does this retention keep one copy of the data or should I update the Retain Extra Versions to 30 to keep a copy for 30 days then does TSM delete the 31st copy on day 31 ?

(well, sort of, maybe, depends on which one you want) If a file changes daily, you only keep 7 versions, so you will have at most 7 copies... on day 30 you only have days 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29 to restore from... days 1-22 have expired due to versions data exists AND say the person totally deleted the file on day 27, then on day 30 you only have the copies from day 28 29 to restore from (on day 30).
