Mark, We had a similar issue with our W2K Library clients. The way around it is to either reboot the server or use NTUTIL to close the drives. the issue is a scsi reserve has been set on these drives therefore now they are back online they have the reserve still in place which will not allow the drives to be used.

Microsoft does not support the system state concept on Windows NT 4.0,
and so TSM can't support it, either. On NT 4.0, it is correct that all you
see is the registry and event log in the SYSTEM OBJECT file space. In
sum, Windows NT 4.0 support is as it always has been: TSM backs up regular
files, registry, and event log.

Hi Alexander!
Unfortunately that doesn't say that all files are backed up. My Windows NT
machine also has a SYSTEM OBJECT filespace on the TSM server. However, it
only contains the registry files and the event log. The presence of the
SYSTEM OBJECT filespace does not guarantee that it contains all system
object files.

Hi Eric,
We did some tests on Windows XP (not 2000). When we
did an incremental backup on a system without a
DOMAIN statement in dsm.opt a file space of
the type SYSTEM OBJECT would appear on the
TSM server for this node.
So I think one can assume that the system object
is included by default.

This is a repost because I did not receive any answer about a week

I have two Windows related questions:
1) When running an incremental, TSM backs up the registry files by
default.
We are soon going to add several Windows 2000 client which use Active
Directory. I read in the manual that Active Directory is part of the
System
Objects which can be backed up using the BACKUP SYSTEMOBJECT command.
So,
if
I'm reading things correctly one has to issue both commands ('dsmc i'
and
'dsmc backup systemobject') for a complete backup?
In my experience the system object is included
in the incremental backup by default
as long as no DOMAIN is specified in dsm.opt

Thanks Wanda Prather we have a good document in: http://www.autovault.org/discus/ - Tivoli Storage Manager scripts Disaster Recovery --W2K bare Metal Restore One extra tip. Read Ms article Q311141 because there is a problem with W2K servers. Hope this helps. Rafael --- to: Christoph Pilgram [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: date: 8/13/2002 9:12:02 AM subject: WIN2K-Complete-Restore Hi all, I remember a document (Red-Book) where was written how to restore the Operating-System and all data to a WIN-NT-Server (By starting with an extra partition with TSM-Client and restoring the other partition ...). I can not find this document anymore on any Web-page from IBM. Does anybody have a link ? But my real problem is to recover a W2K-Server. My collegues are testing recovery on W2K-Servers and up to now thei didn't manage to get one running as before (problems that are reported by them are e.g. with the InternetExplorer 6). Does anybody have a tested plan on how to recover a W2K-Server with TSM (not realy bar-metal but e.g. with an extra partition ...) or is there anywhere a document on how to do it ?

Re: HELP with TSM and SAN
Wait until TSM version 5 is available (end of April) as that will allow you to do LAN free to disk as well as Tape under the same licence. Therefore you will be getting SANErgy for cheap. This will allow you to backup your SAN attached nodes to disk and then migrate the data to tape when the drives are free. Regards, Michael Swinhoe Storage Management Group E-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Eliza Lau [EMAIL PROTECTED]To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] .VT.EDU cc: Sent by: Subject: Re: HELP with TSM and SAN ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] RIST.EDU 15/03/2002 14:19 Please respond to ADSM: Dist Stor Manager No, we don't have a SAN now. IBM is trying to sell us one. I am just looking into ways to incorporate it into our existing configuration before making a recommendation to my boss. Our Exchange database is about 40G. It is being backed up directly to tapes through the LAN to FC 3590E tape drives in a 3494 and runs for 2 hours. Eliza I guess I do not understand why you made the 5 SAN clients SAN if you are not going to go directly to tape. How big is the Exchange Server. 2 Hours sounds like a long time for SAN attached 3590s. The only possible way to do this may be with SANErgy, but I cannot think of way to share the disk pool between the SAN and LAN clients right now. My recommendation for this type of configuration is to use Gigabit in the TSM Server and the SAN clients that you have. It is cheaper and does exactly what you are trying to do. I guess the machines/disk you have are just too slow to drive the tape drives to effectively use SAN. -Original Message- From: Eliza Lau [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2002 11:40 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: HELP with TSM and SAN What I am trying to achieve is to have all SAN and non-SAN clients backup to a disk storage pool that is on the SAN and then migrate to the SAN-attahced 3494. We will have 5 SAN clients and 300+ non-SAN clients with only 6 tape drives. I don't want the 5 SAN clients to tie up the tape drives with LAN-free backup during the backup window. The Exchange backup alone takes 2 hours. Is this doable with a AIX TSM server? Eliza -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Eliza Lau Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2002 9:46 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: HELP with TSM and SAN 1. LAN FREE B/A is available with the Storage Agent in TSM 4.2 2. SANergy MDC cannot run on AIX - WIN2k, WINNT, Solaris, Red Hat and SuSe. Thanks Adolph. This clears things up. But there is indeed a SANergy client for AIX. The Tivoli rep just quoted me a license. It requires 130 points. Then why can't I run the SANergy MDC on a W2K box to export the disk storage pool to the AIX SANergy client where the TSM server is. From this disk storage pool backup files will migrate to the 3494. The W2K box and the AIX TSM server will both be on the SAN. Eliza, why would you want to do this? What are you trying to achieve? Maybe we should take this off the list server. My email is [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3. The non-SAN clients can backup to a SAN or non-SAN disk pool. The TSM server writes to the disk pool, the client does not. If the TSM server has access to the SAN then I would have all of the 3494 tapes attached to the SAN. Partitioning the library is not required. All of my clients with 3494 libraries and SAN, have all of the drives on the SAN. 4. Server Free backup will require the use of a San Data Gateway - this is a hardware box- The current box available from IBM is a 2108-G07. 5. Server Free means both the TSM Server and the Client are not doing i/o to the disk or tape for backup purposes. This comes with TSM 5.1. Initially this will be very limited in the clients that are supported and the TSM server platform.
