Re: Unicode on UNIX
Hi have the same approach as Leandro with this kind of error on Linux clients.

Most system settings in RHEL based distros are made in the sysconfig directory: http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/5.1/Deployment_Guide/s2-sysconfig-i18n.html Please let me disagree with you. I think it's a wrong approach to change locale for the entire OS for the sake of backups only. Besides, I'm not fully aware of consequences of changing the locale system wide. Are you? In this case, if the locale does not exist, just install it. Since the en_US locale is included in the glibc-common RPM try to reinstall or update that RPM. I didn't tell en_US locale doesn't exist. In contrary, it does. What I said is that Linux TSM client will not backup files with funny characters in filename after dsmcad is started from init script on _bootup_ with LC_CTYPE and LANG locales set to en_US in RHEL and SLES. I challenge anyone to show that it works for him/her in any version of RHEL or SLES. However, a user running CentOS thinks that en_US does not exist in that flavor of LINUX, so he misses 1000s of files each night. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Fred has touched here a major problem that has plagued TSM product line for ages and continues to go unresolved. This is absolutely unacceptable that TSM client skips files with filenames that do not conform to specific locale. In my view, every file that can be registered in a file system (ext3/reiser/xfs) supported by major commercial Linux distributions (RHEL/SLES) must be backed up no matter what. As long as file system itself is consistent and underlying physical media is not damaged everything should just work. At around 2008 IBM published a paper called Tivoli Storage Manager and Localization. The paper contains explanations on why it doesn't work and describes in length how to deal with the files named in various barbarian languages. It's a fascinating reading, but doesn't help much in my situation. And besides, with all due respect, IMO that's not something I, as administrator, should be dealing with. If GNU tar can swallow and restore these files without messing with locale or anything else, why TSM cannot? -- Warm regards, Michael Green -- __ Leandro Mazur

TSm and DataDomain question
Hi to all We implant Data Domain Deduplication in our organization with our TSM backup , I have a little question for people running this too about the configuration of file and vtl capacity . For now we configure device type for file as 50GB and for vtl as 100GB when we use VTL only for database backup as Oracle , Sap , Exchange .. Any suggestions with your experience what will be the most appropriate size regarding reclamation etc ….. T.I.A Regards Robert
Reclamation macro or script
Hi to all Did anyone already wrote a macro or script to calculate how much data is expired after running expire inv and want to share it. I already have a script giving me the reclaim pct of each volumes but need to figure the global percent of data that can be reclaim. Thanks in Advance Robert

Today and last weekend we encounted a filled recovery log on two different servers. It looks like both of them were caused by a pinned recoverylog. TSM started one incremental after the other, but could not free up space. I had to bounce both servers. I found two parameters to prevent the log from getting pinned (THROUGHPUTDATATHRESHOLD and THROUGHPUTTIMETHRESHOLD) but I found no recommended values... Another document talks about limiting the size of files written to the diskpool. Large files written to a fragmented diskpool tend to pin the log too. I know my SQL clients are the only clients writing very large backup files. I cannot find a DP for SQL Server parameter to tune this. I know you can set the file size in the DP for Oracle and SAP client. Is this also somehow possible in the SQL Server client? Thanks in advance for any reply!

OES Linus cluster question
Hello. I'm looking for getting TSM configured in an OES2 Cluster environment. We currently have a two node (NodeA NodeB) sharing a NSS volume , when one node is active (NodeA). Nodea and NodeB backup local volume , I created an another node (Node_cluster) to backup the NSS volume. I added in each dsm.sys the instance for Node_cluster and load for NodeA 1.Dsmcad (to backup local FS , local dsm.opt) 2. Dsmcad –optfile=/media/nss/APPS/tivoli/cluster.opt For NodeB I load only Dsmcad (to backup local FS , local dsm.opt), I have on this node exactly the same configuration to backup the NSS volume as NodeA (in dsm.sys the instance of Node_cluster too). My question is how I can manage in case of failure of NodeA when NodeB became active the process of TSM (Dsmcad –optfile=/media/nss/APPS/tivoli/cluster.opt ) to be load automatic to continue to backup the NSS volume ?? T.I.A Regards Robert Ouzen

Microsoft does not support restoring a subset of system state. TSM has been implemented to follow Microsoft guidelines in this regard. Thus if a system state file cannot be found, it is not possible to make a good system state backup, and therefore the system state backup stops. Does the file named in the ANS5279E message, vnetinst.dll, exist? If not, that is why the system state backup stopped. You need to start with an investigation of why this file does not exist, yet the Windows system files writer seems to think it exists. This might be a question for Microsoft. If the file exists, but the backup continues to think it does not exist, then please open a PMR with IBM TSM support.

Question Windows 2000 restore image
Hi to all Need to restore an image backup of a Windows 2000 server , my tsm Client is 5.5.1 . I need to know the correct steps: The restore image is on the same machine (same hardware) I did the restore image successfully (got the correct specification and no error on the log file). I thought that I need a restart before the restore of the systemobject in two steps: 1. restore {SYSTEM OBJECT}\winnt\system32\catroot\* c:\winnt\system32\ -su=yes -replace=all -virtualnodename=%nodename% -password= 2. restore systemobject -virtualnodename=%nodename% -password= But after the restart after the image restore before the restore of the systempobject I got only the line of the specification of the computer as CPU ……. And nothing else , no error at all also. My question is maybe I need to restore the systemobject immediately after the restore of the image without a restart ??? I boot with a winpe CD I made and by the way I successfully to restore in the past Windows 2003 server without any problems T.I.A Regards Robert Ouzen

No need to do a reboot too …. Regards Robert Hi First thanks to all for my last question about TDP Sql as usual Del Hoobler for is great help ….. Now another question this time for loading a service on a Windows client. I managed to install a Windows client silently with the correct command in the msiexec utility and to load all my scheduler (dsmcad, dsmagent and ….) with the dsmcutil utility the last thing I need to be all done , is how to load the “Online Image Support” with the Volume ShadowCopy Services (VSS) as a command process that I can add to my batch file . Did someone did it already ? Regards Robert

TDP Sql question about log growing
Hi to all In a sever Windows 2003 with SQL database I saw that a log increase very much ( to +26 GB) , it was programmed with the option Recovery Model: Full I run every day a full backup (not any log backup) with the command: tdpsqlc backup * full /tsmoptfile=%sql_dir%\dsm.opt /logfile=%sql_dir%\sqlfull.log %sql_dir%\sqlsched.log I add those lines in my dsm.opt: INCLUDE \...\meta\...\* mgwhighlearnf INCLUDE \...\data\...\* mgwhighlearnf If I understand correctly the full backup truncate the log after it finish ??? In my case running just full backup I can turn it to just Recovery Model: simple But just for knowledge why the full backup did not clear the log ? I first turn the Recovery Model to: simple to run a shrinking procedure (turn the log to 10MB). By the way what the difference if instead of the lines of the INCLUDE I wrote previous I will write: INCLUDE \...\meta\...\full* mgwhighlearnf INCLUDE \...\data\...\full* mgwhighlearnf And let my recovery model to: Full Did now it will truncate the log after each full backup ??? or I need to add a truncate option somewhere My TDP for SQL version is 5.2.1.0 Regards, Robert Ouzen
error ANS5280E ... Please help
Hi to all I have a new issue now baking the systemstate with the error ANS5280E enumeration from a file set or file listed failed ? My TSM client is 5.5.1.10 on a Windows 2003 SP2 system. I search the web for the error ANS5280E and found a paper with instructions as: HOW TO REPAIR THE REGISTRY KEY - METHOD 2 This method uses the reg.exe utility from a Windows OS command prompt. 1. Confirm the invalid DRM data value by running the following command: reg query HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\BackupRestore\FilesNotToBackup /v DRM Note: This is one long command even though it might appear in this article on multiple lines. The output look will look something like this: ! REG.EXE VERSION 3.0 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\BackupRestore\FilesNotToBackup DRM REG_MULTI_SZ C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\DRM\* /s\0 The important part is the very last line. Breaking it into 3 parts: * DRM is the registry value, and should appear as shown above. * REG_MULTI_SZ is the value type. This should also be exactly as shown above. * C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\DRM\* /s\0 is the interesting part. If it ends with /s\0\0, then it is unaffected (in which case ANS1009W would not be expected). However, if it ends with /s\0 as shown above, then it is subject to the ANS1009W message. 2. Use reg.exe to repair the value: reg add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\BackupRestore\FilesNotToBackup /v DRM /t REG_MULTI_SZ /d C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\DRM\* /s /f Note: This is one long command. Do not put the \0\0 part in the command. When the value is placed in the registry, it will automatically be terminated properly. After running the above command, you can repeat step 1. to confirm that the data is correct. The data value should now end with /s\0\0 I did on my server but when I run a query I got it without any 0 at all !! HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\BackupRestore\FilesNotToBackup DRM REG_MULTI_SZ C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\DRM\* /s I check in an another server with the same configuration , TSM client 5.5.1.10 windows 2003 SP2 who the systemstate is working fine. There too when I run the query I got without the 0 Can anybody suggest what I can do to fix this error ANS5280E T.I.A Advance Robert Thanks for any replies! Rob

Again help on Microsoft Exchange error
Hi to all I again got on my Exchange server this error: ACN5798E MS Exchange API HRESEBACKUPSETUP() failed with HRESULT: 0xc80001f9 -Backup is already active. I remember that once I got it , I double check that nothing is running and to be sure ask the administrator of this server to do a restart, but still get this error My version of the TDP for Exchange is 5.5.1.0 and my TSM client too. Here the answer I once got from Del: This means that the Exchange Server thinks that an Exchange backup is already being run on that storage group. That could mean one of two things: 1. A backup is actually still running on that storage group. ...or... 2. A previous backup has hung or prematurely ended. If a previous backup has hung or prematurely ended, the Exchange server is supposed to automatically detect the situation and clear the status so that a new backup can be started. Del Nothing is running and if a previous backup has hung why the exchange server did not clear the status. I am stuck and out of ideas !!! Any help will be really appreciate Thanks , regards Robert

Subfile help
Hi to all I have a request to backup a file server with just compressed files (as zip files) created with a backup utility of windows. I want to test the subfile option in TSM and any advice will be appreciate. My purpose is of course to backup only the delta in the zip file, the regular incremental backup will backup the entire file almost every time. I begin to read the help for syntax and options but your experience and maybe syntax example will be great help. T.I.A Regards Robert Ouzen

During the day It would run 3-4 movedata's. while during thenight I had 6-8 running. Our problem was the pools were very big (several thousand 3494/3590 tapes), and we wanted to migrate the data asap.

I see that with 'move data' I would specify volumes names myself, whereas migration would pick the volumes to move. Are there other differences that would favor one technique over the other? A difference in throughput rate would be especially interesting. The files are moving between data centers, and are now in virtual volumes. The target tape pool consists of physical 3592 cartridges.

Question about restoring an Image
Hi to all I read a paper called: IBM - Modified Instructions for Complete Restores of Windows Systems with the TSM Client Bare Metal Restore (BMR), System State Restore, Windows System Object Restore. On it the process to restore a complete system drive is: 1. Restore the CATROOT of the system object (For XP or 2000) Restore the CATROOT of the system state (For 2003 only for 5.3.4 or older) 2. Restore the system drive(for all windows) 3. Restore the system objects (For 2000/XP) or restore the systemstate and systemservices (For 2003) 4. No reboot between only at the end. My question is the process will be the same when doing a restore image in step2 instead restore system drive to do restore image ? Till now the steps I made for restoring an image was: 1. Restore the image (for all windows) 2. Reboot 3. Restore the CATROOT of the system object (For XP or 2000) Restore the CATROOT of the system state (For 2003) 4. Restore the system objects (For 2000/XP) or restore the systemstate and systemservices (For 2003) 5. Reboot Can anybody advise what will the correct process for restoring an image.

Are you just talking about the case where the LAN is relatively uncongested and the SAN is overloaded? Or is there something else I'm missing? I can't say that I've got quantifiable data; I speak from real-world experience. SAN-based data transfer from disk to tape has been, in the best of situations, only slightly faster than similar LAN-based data transfer. As I said earlier, the only advantages I've ever seen to LAN-free backups have been 1. where the LAN is too congested (or poorly configured) to guantee reasonable backup speeds 2. the disk storage pool is too small to handle large file backups. 3. you want to guarantee that an entire node's backups go directly to tape -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Senior TSM engineer __ LLama Gratis a cualquier PC del Mundo.

Re: Storage Agent Upgrade on AIX caused LANFree to slow way down
Hi So if I understand when you change the OS lanfree backup with LANFREECOMMMETHOD of SharedMem the backup was FASTER , did you do the same with the DB2 or still LANFREECOMMMETHOD of TCPIP Regards Robert Ouzen -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of TSM_User Sent: Friday, August 25, 2006 7:07 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] Storage Agent Upgrade on AIX caused LANFree to slow way down Curious that I'm replying to my own post but using the LANFREECOMMMETHOD of SharedMem the 120 GB of OS data just backed up in 57 minutes. The 60 GB of DB2 data backed up in 54 minutes. So looks like the V5.3.3.0 storage agent is more affected by the use of SharedMem over TCPIP. Or, something else changed around the time of the upgrade to break the usage of TCP/IP for the LANFREE backup. I'd still be interested to know if anyone else has seen this behavior. TSM_User [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Guys, We had a TSM server and TSM Storage Agent combination of V5.1.1.0. The TSM client on the AIX server is at V5.1.7.0. This AIX server is running DB2. We have a Windows 2003 TSM server and a 3494 tape library with two Fibre attached 3590 drives. Anyway the OS backup on this server has 120 GB and was backing up in 54 minutes. The DB2 backup on the server had never been configured to run LANFree (don't know why) but backed up 60 GB in 1 hour and 45 minutes over the LAN (10/100 NIC). We upgrade the TSM server to V5.3.3.3 which went without any issues. We then upgraded the TSM storage agent to V5.3.3.0 (they like to not put any patches on this very important AIX DB2 server unless it is absolutly necessary). According to the doc you can use a V5.3.3.0 storage agent with a V5.3.3.3 TSM server without any problems. Now the storage agent backup of the OS runs in 4 hours and 30 minutes. Yes, we are absolutly sure it is still going LANFree. We can see this when we route the q sess command to the storage agent. We also so that the LANFree bytes transferred shows that the whole 120 GB is going LANFree. We did put ENABLELANFREE YES in the dsm.sys that the DB2 agent was in. The DB backup is not completing in 1 hour and 15 minutes. We would like it to be faster but it is faster than when it ran over the LAN so people are happy with it. After this upgrade we gained 30 minutes on the DB2 backup but we lost 3 hours and 30 minutes on the OS backup. The dsm.sys files were setup to use lanfreecommmethod of TCPIP. That was good with V5.1.1.0. However, seeing that the client and storage agent are on the same server I changed the method to SharedMem to see how much of a difference that makes. So after that book, has anyone else experienced a slow down in Storage Agent speed after an upgrade. I've went through many and this is a first for me.

Disadvantage: reclamation of backup storage pool issues because of offsite tapes in primary storage pool, but this can be solved as well. You will end with a bit less automated restore (only) for very old data but with very clear and simple concept for everyda/everymonth backup operations and with more granularity (monthly) even for data older than a year.

Mai 2006 15:14 An: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Betreff: Re: TDP for Exchange - Management Class Hi Volker, Are you using separate NODENAMEs for each of the different DSM.OPT files? If not, your solution won't do what you think. Data Protection for Exchange stores objects in the backup pool, not the archive pool. That means, each full backup gets the same TSM Server name (similar to backing the same file name up with the BA Client.) It follows normal TSM Server policy rules. That means, if you are performing FULL backups using the same NODENAME, each time you back up with a different management class, all previous backups will get rebound to that new management class... just like BA Client file backups. Remember, this is standard behavior for BACKUP. You are trying to get ARCHIVE type function, which won't work. Good news... there is a way to do exactly what you want... ... I have two ways to do it. Solution 1: Create a separate NODENAME for your 3 types of backups. For example: EXCHSRV1, EXCHSRV1_MONTHLY, EXCHSRV1_YEARLY Have a separate DSM.OPT for each NODENAME, with the proper management class bindings. Set up your three schedules for your three separate nodenames. Solution 2: Create 2 separate NODENAMEs. Use one for the STANDARD and MONTHLY backups (perform COPY type backups for your MONTHLY backups). Use the other nodename for the YEARLY backups. For example: EXCHSRV1, EXCHSRV1_YEARLY Have one DSM.OPT for your STANDARD and MONTHLY backups and a different DSM.OPT for your YEARLY backups. In the DSM.OPT file for your STANDARD and MONTHLY backups, set up different policy bindings

FW: Novell question !!!!!! Solution
Hi to all First want to thanks all the people who answered ... About the first problem: No volume in the backup GUI panel the solution was the parameter Disable Cluster to set it to Yes in the Tsa.cfg file. About the second problem: Dos format instead long filenames was to run another incremental (completed) backup , this run an update on the volume and change the type from NTWFS to NTW:LONG Regards Robert Ouzen
