We are considering the implementation of Server Graph for monitoring our multiple TSM servers located all over the country (USA). I'm interested in any experiences the members of this list may have with this product, good and bad. Also, are there any other competing products that, in your experience, work better? We are looking for a tool that we can use from a central server that provides TSM monitoring / Alerting, as well as reporting, and analysis information. Ultimately, we'd like to be able to turn over the day to day TSM stuff (restores, restarting / troubleshooting hung backups and other basic tasks) to our 24x7 operations team so we can concentrate on new TSM implementations, performance tuning etc... We'd like a tool that will allow us to do both. Essentially we want to automate notification of our operations team when something goes wrong, as well as use the tool for in depth reporting and analysis of our site. We understand we could accomplish this will a bunch of shell or Perl scripts, but we are looking for something that's already put together and just works. We don't have the time to reinvent the wheel here. Our company uses OpenView and we will need to tie into this system as tightly as possible. I understand that Server Graph claims to integrate easily with OpenView. Do any of you have any experience with this application? If so, will you please share your experiences?

TSM Password
Good Afternoon, I have looked for an answer to this question in the TSM documentation but could not find it. So, I am going to ask the experts - will TSM accept passwords (admin, client, etc.) with a combination of uppercase, lowercase, numeric and special characters?

Process for re-running failed of missed backups
Good Morning, I am looking for some best practices from the list on how to handle backups that have either failed or were missed during the night. We currently backup 1000 nodes to four TSM servers. Most mornings we have about 20-30 servers that have had a problem completing their backup for one reason or another. We currently investigate why each failure occurred and then re-run the backup to capture changed data. It can get to be quite time consuming. I'm wondering what other shops do to handle these situations? I am looking to not only reduce the number of failure we experience each night but to may automate the process of checking these backups and re-running them. Thanks in advance.

Exchange Restore Problem
Hello All, I am having a problem when trying to restore old Exchange Backups. We have built the recovery server, installed and configured Exchange 5.5, and installed and configured TDP for Exchange V1.1. This version was installed because this is what was used to perform the backup. When the GUI is started and the Show All button is clicked, all of our full and incremental backups appear. We select the full backup we want to restore and the agent contacts the TSM server, mounts the proper tape, and begins to send data. However, as soon as it starts to send data, the restore fails with the following error: Exchange Event Service Exchange Information Store Service 01/08/2002 11:36:14,RESTORE(GUI) - Database: IS, Type: Full, Size: 22G, Actual bytes: 0, Secs: 0.00, Kb/Sec: 0.00, Exchange Server: PJMNT11, TSM Server: PJMNT24, Status: ACN4226E -- Exchange Error: ACN3516E -- An unknown Exchange API error has occured. Has anyone experienced this error? What are the possible causes? What are the possible solutions? Can I use TDP V2.2 to restore these backups? If, so how?

Ask again.
Good Morning, I asked this question a bit earlier in the week and did not get much of a response. I am simply trying to do a dsmc incr directory on a server and it asks for a user id (interactively). I am attempting to run this command as part of a scheduled job and have not been able to figure out how to pass it a return in my unix script. Do I have to pass a return in the script or can I set an option to avoid the user id request? Any ideas? Sean

Right now, I have set up a 100GB Disk Pool and one Tape Pool and one Tapecopy pool for making offsite storage copies. My questions are: If I am doing backups using this configuration, my daily backups on NT, Netware, and Unix will all first go to the disk pool and then migrate to the tape pool. Data on the tapes will consist of information from all platforms, mixing together, right? I was uncomfortable with this data mixing idea. I called TSM support and they assured me everything would be alright. However, If I still want to have tapes consisting of only one platform only, are there ways to configure the system to do that? My purpose of doing this is to have NT, Novell, and Unix System Administrators to handle their own tapes. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Scheduler Problems on AIX - SCHEDMODE=PROMPTED???
Hello All, I upgraded my AIX TSM clients to 3.7.2.14 yesterday and now I am having a problem with the TSM scheduler process. The backups were missed for the 6 boxes I upgraded last night. I arrived this morning and thought maybe I had forgotten to restart the scheduler, but the schedulers were all running. I investigated by looking in the activity log and I received the following error for all of the clients - ANR2716E Schedule prompter was not able to contact client client name using type 1 (IP Address 1501). The schedule mode for these clients was set to PROMPTED. I switched the schedule mode to POLLING and the scheduled backups ran. Is there a problem with the TSM scheduler at this level?
