Backup Migrated Chached files

2002-05-23 Thread Ran Harel

Hi TSMers

Does Anyone have a clue:

You have a primary storage pool with cached option enabled.
You perform a migration to your secondary storage pool.
Then you perform a backup storage pool from the secondary storage pool to
your copy pool.
Could it be true that TSM uses the cached files for the operation in the way
it does with restore ?

It is documented that when you backup the primary storage pool, tsm will not
copy
cached files - which means you have to copy the secondary storage pool
either - that is clear.

Any ideas ?

Tnx.

Ran

If it is documented that it does not use cached copies for backup then I would
expect it to be true.
But why  not copy before you migrate
Then it does not matter,

Re: Backup Migrated Chached files

2002-05-23 Thread Ran Harel

I am trying to back it up before, but I have oracle servers
that generates lots of archives all day long, sometimes during the
migration process, which means that the high threshold for migration
is still 10%. So some files get migrated before they have a chance of
getting backed up to the copypool. But still they stay on the cache...
I know, I will have to extend the diskpool.

The real problem here is not the backup time, but I had recently
some incidents, where the files had been backed up to the tape
volume, and then the backup failed becuase the tape
volume got damaged at the same area, and tsm could not read.

Anyway, Tnx.

Ran.
