Re: Windows TSM-Client Crash
Hi Wouter ! Maybe I am not the best specialist to answer you but. We decide not to work the scheduler but with the SCRIPTS of the TSM ADMINISTRATOR. They have powerfull enough function to run Backup and DB-Backup regular operations. We didn't see any problem with the Service 'Server1' that can wake up.

Re: **PLEASE HELP ** 4584E : in DSMSERV RESTORE DB:
Thank you very much Paul 1) I format the db and log files. 2) Our DB-BACKUP is on ONE TAPE only. Small DB ~10Mb(because all the files are more than 1GB) 3) We make the commit=yes 4) We don't have the VOLUME HISTORY butg we found the tapes with DSMSERV DISPLAY function. 5) We work according to the Administrator's Guide 6) We tried other tapes from other library. It works fine. 7) All the DB-BACKUP tapes seems to be corrupted (how?) --- Do you know how to recover without the DBBACKUP with only the DATA TAPES ? It is difficult to help you. Many of us run V4 of TSM and do not have the messages manual for V3. The complete message text for the 8337 would be helpful. It sounds like it is trying to tell you how the recovery log will be handled. Are you sure you have the DEVCONFIG setup correctly for a restore. Did you format the files to receive the Database and recovery logs? Did you follow the Administrator's Guide for recovery based on your specific scenario? I am presuming that you do not have the VOLHISTORY file to work with. Are you specifying COMMIT=YES? See the example command here. dsmserv restore db devclass=8MM volumenames=tape01,tape02 commit=yes Are sure the DBBACKUP is on a single tape, that it is not a multi-volume?

Re: anybody out there using AIT library?
We use here AIT2 and AIT1 library. Also API using and Migration Backup take (at least) 8 times more than it's written in the manual. Our configuation: Qualstar (3-4 different sorts) 3.7.4 NT4.0 sp6 Good luck. If you success to make it run only 1/2 than they say so please tell us !!

Weighted Time-to-data performance, capacity and price ratio seems to be far the best with AIT for my needs, but I have no experiencies with this technology at all. Any suggestions?

Disk Copy Pool
Hi Everybody. Thank you for precedent answers ! 3.7.4 NT4.0 (soon 2000) QUALSTAR AIT1/2 libs. API Used for Archives (not Copy Pool) Here's the new problem: We would like each day to copy the Archive Pool to a FILE pool up to 120 GB and flush this to a SEQ TAPE. We would like this disk pool to be empty every time we flush it and CONTINUE to fill IT FROM THIS POINT. Not from the begining. If I delete the created File Volumes, the TSM will try on the next backup to backup them from the begining ! Is there a trick ? Thank you Michel __ Do You Yahoo!? Find the one for you at Yahoo!

Thank you Wanda Karel Richard etc You are all GOD ! I use TSM 3.7.4 on NT. If I wanted to delete some dbb volumes I used del volh type=dbb todate= 1) For now if I want to delete these FILE DBB, which instruction fo I have to use ? The Help on Del Volh is incomplete about the DEVCLASS=. and the use of this function with the parameter DEVCLASS returns an error. 2) If I want to restore a damaged DB I have to use RESTORE DB ? But there is no such function in the help. What is the exact syntax and how can I use the FILE-DEVCLASS DBB volumes to do it ? Thank you TSM'ers Michel DAVID MARNET __ Do You Yahoo!?

Reclamation space / True occupancy
Shalom everybody TSM 3.7.4 Using TSM Administration Programming with API AIT1/AIT2 tapes. I need know - how much MB are really stored in a tape - how many % of reclamable space there is really - How much % of the tape can be used more (capacity of tape according to the same average compress ratio). The Estimated Capacity (MB) of the Volume inspection gives me numbers that I don't understand. Thank you very much Michel __ Do You Yahoo!?
