Re: ANS1301E Error
It did not have a max size set on the pool, but the pool was full enough that it could not fit 5G more into it. This apparently is treated like a file size limit and tries to dump the large file directly to tape (at least when the storage pool is not full enough to trip the migration limits). Thanks Louis J.

Re: ANS1301E Error
Thanks, I had looked at these and reset the Novell nodes, just yesterday, I didn't get around to the Unix ones then or might have avoided this problem today. I did reset the MAXNUMMP for this node (and my other old nodes), but as I said, I had already migrated the pool. So, I will have to do a separate test. On a related question, when I queried some of these and reset some yesterday I noticed some nodes were set to "unlimited", like your example. I looked at the documentation and played around with UPDATE some, but could not figure out how to set it to unlimited. I don't think I need it but I wondered how to set it and why some nodes already had it set that way. What should they be set to? I have been setting them to 1 per the default, but know that the defaults are not always what is the best. Louis J.

Subject:Re: ANS1301E Error
Thanks for your suggestions.
Yes, I had available drives. The only other process using a drive
was a DB backup.
Yes, the disk pool is shared and was full enough that the 5G would
not fit, so that explains the tape mount attempt. But I can still find no
reason for the job to fail. We do have plenty of scratch tapes available.
There were no errors related to tape problems or other problems during the 4
to 5 minutes this backup was trying to run. I have forced migration of the
storage pool. It was only about half full, so had not triggered a migration
yet. The backup seems to be running to the storage pool ok.
This pool is not collocated, but we have seen backups wait for a
tape being used by migration when the storage pool was migrating for a
collocated pool.
The last comment in your note
>>you allow client backups to tape drives (a setting I believe...)?
does trigger an idea. We have recently seen a problem with some
Novell backups of large files that tried to go to tape. They appeared to
fail because the MAXNUMMP setting apparently came in with our upgrade to
3.7, but existing nodes got set with MAXNUMMP=0 instead of the default of 1.
They failed with ANS1312E error that clearly referenced the MAXNUMMP
setting. I'm wondering if this problem is the Unix client version. This
client is an existing AIX client that also was left with the MAXNUMMP=0
after the upgrade.

Do you have available tape drives at that time (it appears
that your
are going straight to tape). IF you are not going straight to tape,
the DISK
area that you are trying to backup to can't hold your 5+GB
file.
Mind you, that if the DISK pool is shared...it could be some percent
full
from other
backups? Another thought..colocation on?...tape in use by
another
process (it shouldn't matter...but...)...available scratch tapes?
FYI Thanks Tim

Subject:ANS1301E Error
A client is reporting the error below trying to backup a file. The
ANS1301E error is vaguely worded "server detected system error". I can find
no errors in my TSM 3.7.3 server log or my OS/390 system log during the time
of this backup attempt. Since it is an "ANS" message, is this error really
trying to tell me that there was an error on the clients's system?
Thanks
