DB2 LANFree reconfiguration to use LAN
Guys, We're backing up DB2 v7 (WinNT) via LANFree to a TSM 4.2 server on AIX. All has been relatively fine and dandy. However, we're now due to upgrade the TSM server to v5.2 and must therefore revert to LAN backups for this DB2 instance. Does anyone know whether a db2stop/db2start is required to pick up the change from ENABLELANFREE YES to ENABLELANFREE NO in the api dsm.opt?

Re: DB2 LANFree reconfiguration to use LAN
yes, db2 has to be restarted. dsm.opt/dsm.sys is only read during the startup of the db2.

Daniel (and Jeroen) - thanks for the advice.

Re: DB2 LANFree reconfiguration to use LAN
Depends on when the storage agent fails. If it fails during backup/restore processing, the DB/2 backup(or restore) will fail. If it fails and then the DB/2 process starts, yes it will fail-over to LAN functionality.

Re: DB2 LANFree reconfiguration to use LAN
We just moved some of our LANFree W2K and W2K3 clients from one datacenter to another. The SAN is still in the old datacenter, to LANFree from those clients is currently impossible (without additional hardware). I instructed the move team to stop, and disable the StorageAgent service on those machines that are moving, so the APIs use the default LAN path without changing any .opt files. Once the SAN is moved to the new datacenter, all we have to do is start the StorageAgent services, and life will (should) be good, again. -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Daniel Sparrman Sent: Monday, January 24, 2005 9:02 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] DB2 LANFree reconfiguration to use LAN Depends on when the storage agent fails.
