restore db to new host (LPAR) and ESS dsmfmt'd stg volumes?
Hello all, I am wondering if anyone has any experience moving TSM from one AIX host to another, both of which are attached to an ESS. My basic question is whether it is possible to move the vpaths from the one host and to the other & be able to retain the dsmfmt'd storage pool volumes in the reassignment, or if I will have to redefine all the vpaths and then redsmfmt all the stg pool volumes? I also wonder if it would be possible to use Sysback to accomplish this, if it isn't possible through the conventional AIX ways. I have been trying to research this online, but really can't find anything about it. TIA lisa
Re: how to find out the date when a file became inactive??
Thanks Richard-- I was hoping it wasn't one of THOSE select statements-- I started tsm: TSM_HQ_2>select deactivate_date, filespace_name, type, ll_name, hl_name,dea ctivate_date, class_name, state, backup_date,node_name from backups where NODE_N AME='GHDATA01DISKGROUP2' order by BACKUP_DATE before I asked the list the question. This is on a clustered, SAN, Windows 2000 server with way more than a million objects & about 800G of data on it. I am just hoping I don't crash the TSM server before the select finishes!! Perhaps I should have only include the HL_name for the filespace I was interested in..

how to find out the date when a file became inactive??
Good morning *SMers! Can anyone one help me out on this one? I am severely brain impaired right now & I have a request from mgmt to see if I can find out when a file became inactive (i.e., when it was deleted). I am pretty sure I have a recollection of finding out this information before, but am at an utter loss right now to remember how. tia, lisa

Re: How to check if TSM is using hw compression?
Richard- I always thought that hardware compression was turned on at the drive-level, and that all you should do in TSM was use the FORMAT=DRIVE as the setting in TSM. Are you saying that I'd be better served by setting FORMAT=3590H-C??? thanks, lisa Richard Sims <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: "ADSM:To Dist Stor [EMAIL PROTECTED] Manager" cc <[EMAIL PROTECTED] .EDU> Subject Re: How to check if TSM is using hw compression? 09/08/2003 06:35 AM Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] .EDU> >>Using TSM 5.1.6.2 on Solaris 8 with a Sun L20 Tape Library (using >>DLT8000 drives) how can I check if TSM uses the hardware compression of the >>drives? >TSM doesn't use hardware compression. Whether or not a tape drive uses >compression is a parameter set at the operating system level. TSM certainly sets the drive attributes to effect hardware compression. The 'C' at the end of the DEVclass FORMAT spec incites the server to set that drive attribute. In AIX, the drive attributes currently in effect can be listed via 'lsattr -EHl rmt1'. Solaris must have something similar, but that's beyond my experience. Richard Sims, BU

trying to use the TDP for mail GUI (Domino) thru Terminal service
Hey all, has anyone tried using the TDP for Mail GUI for Domino 6 through the terminal services console? Every time I try it, I cause an NSD (the new RIP file). Have I got something configured wrong, or is this working as designed? TIA (and happy Friday) lisa
EOL or EOS on ITSM 5.1 yet?
I was looking thru the EOS matrix, and did not find 5.1. This doesn't seem right, however. Does anyone know when support will sunset on ITSM 5.1? I also looked in the 5.2 announcement, and it didn't mention anything either. thanks lisa
Re: TDP for Domino 6. ver 5.1.5.1
For those of you following this thread, after opening the PMR I discovered that I had inadvertently (??how, I don't know yet, but I did it on the day I expired a bunch of wintel incr schedules during our battle with the virii & worms last week) introduced a '/' into the object of the schedule that called the domincr.cmd and also into the schedule that called for the daily archive of the transaction logs.

Re: Backups bypassing disk pool
I have occasionally noticed this with my TDP for Oracle sessions. The nodes are in their own domain, management class, no limit on size on the device class, and space left in the disk pool. The only reason I ever notice is because we use 4 channels in the scripts, and if there is a tape write error, the job fails, since one of the channels reports a write-block error, and it can't restart the session. I guess the only thing I could offer is whether you validated and activated the management classes (it's got me before;-) good luck! lisa William Sherrill <[EMAIL PROTECTED] M> To Sent by: "ADSM: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dist Stor cc Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject .EDU> Backups bypassing disk pool 07/30/2003 10:29 PM Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] .EDU> I have some clients (Windows 2000) that are backing up straight to my tapepool instead of the disk pool. My server is AIX 5.1.6.2. and most of the windows clients are running at 5.1.5.9. The clients are associated to a management class that's default management class should cause the backups to go to the disk storage pool. There is a management class within the domain that directs the backups to the tape pool, but I do not have it included in the dsm.opt file, in fact I do not have any management class defined, meaning that it should go to the default. Has anyone experienced this problem? Also, I tried an incremental of the c drive with the disk storage pool empty and it's estimated capacity is 38 gb and it still called for a tape. The capacity of the c drive of the client is under 1.5 gb. Thanks, Bill Sherrill
