Re: OSSM Integration with SP 8.1.16
Hello, I am working on a similar problem in a Level 2 assist (related to a sale force ticket) I have opened your question and the L2 assist in the OSSM development slack channel. Once I get a response I will update both. -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager On Behalf Of Saravanan Palanisamy Sent: Thursday, January 5, 2023 9:02 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [EXTERNAL] [ADSM-L] OSSM Integration with SP 8.1.16 Hello Everyone, I have tried to configure Open Snap Store Manager to integrate with SPP. When I tried to use default TSM self signed cert then I can do the OSSM config without any issue. However when I try to use CA signed cert then OSSM services are not able to communicate with IBM Spectrum Protect Server and OSSM services are not coming up. Does anyone successful configure OSSM with CA signed cert ? Even I tried to copy the CA cert files to /home/tsminst1/ossm/.secret/CAs/mycacert.cert. Have tried with other TSM servers where we have imported CA cert but encounter same issue but when I remove the cert and do the config then it works. If anyone come across this issue and give some light on it then would really appreciate it. Regards, Sarav -- Thanks & Regards, Saravanan Mobile: +65-8228 4384
Re: Sysback
Yes, it sends its backup images to TSM. This is true for all of SysBack's backup types (system, volume group, filesystem, local volume and file/directory) Its called IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for System Backup and Recovery (SysBack). Recently the product was sold to Christie. But IBM is still honoring all existing SysBack contracts with Tech support and maintenance.

Sent by:"ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU> "Tivoli Monitoring for TSM" (the monitoring and analysis tool that uses Cognos) is no longer mentioned in anything about Spectrum Protect 8.1. There is a tiny note that Tivoli Monitoring for TSM V7 can monitor a Spectrum Protect V8 server, but that's all. Has this feature been deprecated? (i.e. Could it be unwise to start using it now if we've never used it before?) Has this feature been combined into the new 8.1 Operations Center? Has this feature been spun off as a separate product? We are trying to figure out a future course here as we plan for 8.1. We currently use IBM SPSS for this purpose, as we have since the product was called WDSF, then ADSM, and TSM, and had planned on migrating to Tivoli Monitoring/Cognos. But now I'm thinking of just keeping our substantial base of SPSS procedures for monitoring, long-term trends, and the like. As a university, we will always be licensed for IBM SPSS for academic research. Sticking with our homebrewed SPSS procedures might be better future-proofing if the Tivoli Monitoring/Cognos feature is going away at some point. Servergraph is always a possibility, but the cost has been prohibitive. I cannot find any information about this. Either I'm missing something obvious, or there really is not much happening here.

Re: Monitoring Agent, 2 on a single TSM Server?
You can do that on AIX and Linux, by installing the code into different directories. You can't however do that on Windows. But what issue are you dealing with between the versions?

Sent by:ADSM: Dist Stor Manager ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Is it possible to install two Monitoring Agents on a single TSM server? My hope: leave the current remote agent that pushes data from TSM 6.3.x to the production Monitoring/Reporting/Admin Center server where production reports are produced. But, also install a second Remote Monitoring Agent (related to TSM 7.1.1) on that same TSM 6.3 server and configure it to push data to a new Monitoring/Reporting server. This would let me workout the wrinkles in new reporting and continue to use Remote Agents, not several local agents. Alternative, I suppose: create a second local Agent on the new Monitoring server and in time delete it, when I upgrade the Remote Agent to the new release. Thanks.

Re: TSM Server Recovery (AIX)
You can use the command mksbcd with the software TSM for System Backup and Recovery aka SysBack which will allow the user to create a full system bootable and installable system backup to CD/DVD devices using a ISO9660 (CD/DVD) or UDF (DVD) format. You can also include additional filesets (device drivers) which could be installed at the system restore. Once again you would not need to reinstall your TSM server code, it would be included in this system backup. The command used is called mksbcd which is similar to the AIX version called mkcd. The TSM version contains more functionality and is more flexible than the AIX version.

There's no need to install AIX, update, and then install TSM Once you go to AIX 5.3 you'll have the option to install all device drivers to your system image, so you can boot/install from a dvd backup and not need to grab new drivers from the install CD.

Without using addtional software, just AIX, how does one create a boot CD that contains all the necessary info to restore a server using a mksysb tape? I understand the process for recovering an AIX server from a mksysb tape backup to different hardware would be to boot the server from a CD of the same OS-ML as the mksysb backup. My TSM server is running on AIX 5200-03. The install media I have is 5200-01. How do I create a boot CD image (ISO, so I can burn the ISO image using a PC CD-W) that contains the 5200-03 files so I can recover the TSM server? My current working documentation requires an install of 5200-01, patch to -03, and install TSM and then restore the DB. That works OK, but takes additional time, and still won't get back everything I need to allow some other node restores to start. I will still have to rebuild some things from scratch. Thanks in advance. Todd
