Re: Netware backup include/exclude/domain issues
It is possible to load it multiple times with the same name. However, I prefer to rename it for unload purposes. If you load with the same name, when you type 'unload dsmc', all instances will unload. If you've renamed them, you can 'unload dsmcvol1' or 'unload dsmcvol2' to unload the specific instance only.

Re: Netware backup include/exclude/domain issues
I have something similar with a NetWare cluster here. Any given server has an instance of the TSM client loaded for the local SYS volume and server specific information. Then, each clustered resource (which has its own volume) loaded on that server has another instance of the TSM client. The dsm.opt file for the server contains the line: DOMAIN SYS: SERVERSPECIFICINFO This causes that instance of the TSM client to only backup sys and serverspecificinfo, but skips the other volumes that are present on the server The dsm.opt file on the other volumes have the line: DOMAIN VOLNAME: and only backup the volume that is explicitly stated in the domain line. There shouldn't be a need to negate volumes using DOMAIN. Just explicitly define the volume you want to backup.

If I negate the volumes via the DOMAIN statement, this works. But, as we add volumes, we would have to go around and update dozens of opt files.not a good idea since we are already at 20-volumes.

Re: IBM 3583 upgrade to mult-path
We've done this. Essentially, yes it is just a matter of loading the firmware and re-cabling the drives. However, this is not something that you can do yourself--at least we couldn't at the time we purchased the upgrade. The price of the upgrade included an IBM field engineer coming on site to perform the upgrade. Perhaps that's why it is so pricey? Although I never confirmed it, I'm guessing the requirement to have a field engineer come on-site was to protect the integrity of the code.

Re: Problems with Netware backups
Somewhere along the way (version 5.2.x of the TSM client if memory serves), the ALL-LOCAL domain was updated to automatically include NDS backups on servers that hold replicas. I fixed the problem by changing the domain line in the dsm.opt file for all of my replica-holding servers (except the one I actually perform NDS backups from) to the following. DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL -NDS: That still does an all local backup, but excludes NDS.

Changing from barcode length normal to extended
We're in the process of replacing the LTO1 drives with LTO2 drives in our 3583 library. In the end, we will not have mixed drives, but will have mixed media.

Re: NetWare Cluster Issues...
I am currently backing up a 9 node NetWare 6 cluster. The docs were of some help (though not much--the cluster portion was very difficult to make sense of). Most of what I have was the result of collaboration with a couple of smart folks over at UNC Chapel Hill. To put it briefly, the key pieces of what we put together here at SUU are: 1. Load the TSA with the /cluster=off switch 2. Use the cluster option in the dsm.opt file 3. Each local node loads dsmcad with the dsm.opt specifying a domain of SYS: and SERVERSPECIFICINFO (I've actually removed the sys: recently because there's really nothing in there that is worth backing up. If the server crashes, resources will move to another node and I'll fix the crashed node. There's nothing special on the SYS vol that I'll need to recover) 4. A unique TSM node name was created for each cluster resource 5. Each cluster resource loads a renamed dsmcad.nlm (renamed so that each resource has a unique name allowing for easier unloads--if I just unloaded dsmcad, all instances would unload). The renamed dsmcad.nlm is loaded with the -optfile= parameter so that a unique dsm.opt can be used for each resource. The unique dsm.opt file contains the TSM node name, the domain line that points specifically to the clustered volume, and a specific httpport for that resource. I've got a longer doc that goes into more detail that I will send you off-list. Matt Zufelt Southern Utah University [EMAIL PROTECTED] 5/11/2004 8:32:18 AM Ok here is the deal... I have a Netware cluster of 7 nodes (soon to be 23) each having 3 clustered volumes. Any volume can be on any node at any time. Has anyone set this up before? If so did you use the TSM docs, did you get help, or was it trial and error? The docs do not seem to be very helpful. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Backing up NDS/eDirectory server
The answer on the automatic part is it depends. The newest version of the TSM client for NetWare (5.2.2.0) will automatically backup NDS on a server that holds a master replica. For other servers and previous versions of the TSM client, you need to add NDS: to the domain line in your dsm.opt file. For example: DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL NDS: When you query the filespaces on the TSM server, you'll see a filespace called NODE\NDS: which is listed separate from other filespaces for the node.

Also plan to do a test recovery of this server to another box, to test the restore aspect, including the NDS/eDirectory piece. Any hints/tips/suggestion/war-stories in this arena ? So far the only experience we have with recovering Netware systems has been user-data only, not NDS !
Re: Netware end of job
You might also try dropping dsmc sched and letting dsmcad handle the scheduling. That'll give you two advantages: (1) remove the operator intervention and (2) reduces memory consumption by the TSM client on your NetWare server. Just add a line similar to: MANAGEDSERVICES schedule webclient to the DSM.OPT file. Then, just load dsmcad (without loading dsmc sched). If you receive public symbol errors when loading dsmcad, load netdb first then dsmcad.

Re: tsa600.nlm memory leak on NW6 client
Loading TSANDS is only necessary if you're backing up eDirectory itself. Not sure why the admin wouldn't want it loaded, but I guess that's a different issue. Regarding the memory leak: I've seen it documented somewhere (though I don't remember where) that the problem isn't a leak so much as it is dsmc.nlm not releasing resources (but then again, that sounds a lot like a leak). The more files you back up, the more memory that is required by dsmc. The problem is, even after the backup is finished, dsmc.nlm does not release the memory resources it has consumed. Over a period of time, the memory usage grows until it reaches a point that it is affecting server performance. Once you unload and then reload dsmc.nlm, the memory is released. I would recommend switching your method of loading the scheduler. Instead of loading dsmc sched to handle the scheduling, add schedule to the managedservices line in your dsm.opt file. For example: MANAGEDSERVICES schedule webclient Then, when you load dsmcad.nlm, it will handle the scheduling instead of dsmc.nlm. The advantage of this method is reduced memory usage. When it is time to perform the backups, dsmcad loads dsmc, does the backup, and then unloads dsmc thereby freeing the memory. This method has worked wonders for memory utilization on our servers here.

For reasons that I do not fully understand, the Netware admin does not want to load TSANDS, which is apparently used only to back up the NDS. They only wish to get certain user files. The backups run OK manually (dsmc i), but if I load dsmc sched and let the scheduler handle it (server prompted), memory usage goes through the roof...after one night, TSA600 will be using well over 1GB, and close to 2GB on the second night. The second night will not complete. Is TSANDS *required*? I'm thinking that this might be the cause for the memory consumption that I'm seeing. Any comments would be appreciated. -Lloyd
Re: Netware 6 TSM 5.2 Client
Rowan, The cluster off switch tells the TSAs that your backup software is not cluster-aware. That is, it isn't cluster-aware in terms of using NetWare's TSA calls to back up the cluster. Without the /cluster=off switch, querying the server via the TSA will return only the SYS volume and any other local volumes. With that switch present, all volumes, including cluster volumes will be returned. TSM has it's own cluster parameter for the dsm.opt file (clusternode yes) that adds cluster support for TSM. While this isn't the native Novell method, it works fine. It names the TSM filespaces something like ClusterName/Volume instead of ServerName/Volume.

Re: Netware Client problem
I haven't seen your exact error message before, but it looks like you server may have DNS name resolution issues. I would suggest checking three things first: (1) make sure the server knows it's own hostname properly (check sys:etc\hostname). Also, make sure that the hostname the server thinks it is using is the same as the hostname configured in your local DNS. (2) Make sure sys:etc\hosts is configured properly for your NetWare server. There should be a line in there similar to: 192.168.1.3 servername.somewhere.comservername (3) Make sure the server can do DNS lookups outside of TSM. You could try using ping at the server console to check this (ping your TSM server by name, or a known site on the Internet that answers pings, such as www.cisco.com). If that doesn't work, check the file sys:etc\resolv.cfg. It should look something like this: domain somewhere.com nameserver 192.168.1.1 nameserver 192.168.1.2 with your domain and nameservers, of course.
