I would not expect good results from that. I agree that the additional complexity which comes from running two operating systems in one HA cluster environment is challenging. That is why I ask for help on this list. But then I do consider the backup of cluster volumes to be a basic feature of any enterprise level backup environment. Tivoli supports this, and we have been using this feature for many years with good success on Netware clusters. It is virtually impossible to provide a cluster volume with a different nodename on each host. In a worst case scenario this would multiply backup time and number of tapes needed by the number of hosts. Restoring from backup will be very complicated and demanding in a setup where one has to remember on which host a volume was running at a given time in the past. One query you should do on the TSM server is Query FIlespace TEST Format=Detailed to survey the filespace characteristics, seeing if there is some mixture of Unicode (as in UTF-8) and non-Unicode - and particularly if any filespaces are both, where TSM will default to trying to use the non-Unicode instance. Thank you very much indeed for this advice. With our main TSM server admin enjoying his summer vacation I will have to wait until I have access to the server logs again. But I will come back with this information.

Access from the Linux client is denied since 29th of June. What you're doing is on the fringes of product utilization. You may have to contact TSM Support to get further. Check your dsmerror.log for further indications of underlying problems, as well as the TSM server Activity Log for problem indications at session initiation attempts.

The problem I want to address with this message is error ANS1357S Session rejected when trying to access the Tivoli server with the Linux client using a cluster nodename. For the nodename set up to backup the system partitions of the Linux host everything works just fine. This seems to be related to character encoding: For volumes which use a filespace of type NTW:Long under Netware access is possible. However, for those who are set up with NTW:UTF-8 access is denied. NTW:Long is not an option for us as we have lots of file names with non-ASCII characters. Any comments or hints on this? Below is the error message and the current locale settings.

In other words, does the file scan done when backups run also have to scan this also each day? Any experienced do's/don'ts about this from TSM point of view? I've no personal, first-hand experience with this, but I investigated DST a while ago and decided that it is unlikely to be helpful for TSM-based backups. Basically, DST means that you've got two physical volumes that are presented to your client PCs as a single logical volume. In the background, a rule set moves files from one physical volume to the other (usually one volume is expensive/fast, the other cheap/slow). It also allows conventional backup software (the kind that needs to do full backups periodically) to backup the cheap/slow volume less frequently, saving both time and tapes. As far as I know, the unified view is strictly limited to NCP clients, which means that for TSM, there really are two separate volumes to backup (can anyone confirm this?). Since TSM uses the incremental forever approach, it's actually counter-productive to move a file from one volume to the other, because TSM will see it as a new file and will have to back it up for a second time. -- Jürgen Weinelt Rechenzentrum der Universität Würzburg
Netware to Linux client migration
I have TSM server 5.5.2 and some older Netware clients. Netware 6.5 and most are TSM client 5.2.2.0. These are our Network file shares. The current volumes are NSS (TSM server filespace type NTW:LONG.) The team is about to migrate all Netware over to Linux, SLES 10 and the TSM filespace type will be NSS. They have done a small one as a test and this is how it comes out. Several questions. 1. I know that disimilar filesystem types can't be backed up/restored. So, with the old Netware filespaces, I need to keep them around to restore old data to one spare Netware server and then they copy data to new system if a restore is needed after migrating. I thought I would ask though if there is anyway that this can be migrated as this is probably a popular move and maybe there is a way to do it, even if a third party something. Ha ha! I know is a dumb question, but I see Andy Raibeck's standard line about that frequently! 2. With the new Linux servers, they will also implement Novell's Dynamic Storage Technology. This will enable the infrequent accessed files to be dumped off to a shadow space on SATA drives. Does anybody know if this speeds up the TSM backup?

Re: Remote Netware connectivity software
Hi Ron, All My level of Novell is not very high, However I should be able to install the Novell client. We are going to try to use Novell Remote Manager. Is there a way to get the Novell Client to the target machine for install? The other Netware utilities seem to require The novell client to be installed on my machine I get messages like Netware Client Libraries not loaded netwin32 not loaded I am going to try to find VNC for NetWare, could not find that the before. Thanks Neilly, Ron wrote: Yes. There are many ways, all free, to get to the NetWare console remotely. 1. Novell Remote Manager (aka NoRM). This is a web based management interface with a lot of capabilities, one of which is a console access capability. The service listens on port 8008/8009 by default. It is provided/loaded by the loading of httpd.nlm and portal.nlm in the autoexec.ncf file when the server boots. (BTW sorry if I am being pedantic, but I have no idea of your level of knowledge of NetWare.) So open your browser (firefox 3.0.x or ie 6/7 work best - opera also works well) to https://server.domain:8009 Login with your eDir credentials. 2. RconIP. This is a nice little app that requires that the server load rconag6.nlm. You can get rconip here: http://rconip.sourceforge.net/ 3. SSH. NetWare has an sshd.nlm that allows terminal based access from linux/unix clients, among other things. 4. Rconj.exe. This is a java based client that talks to rconag6.nlm on the server, much like rconip. But this client supports ssl whereas rconip does not. 5. VNC for NetWare. The project is hosted here http://forge.novell.com/modules/xfmod/project/?vncnw and there is some documentation at the cool solutions website here : http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/431.html In terms of setup and defaults - ie what is likely to exist at your remote systems and won't require you loading and configuring something at the server first (catch-22) - your best bet is NoRM. For future functionality and security though your probably best off with ssh. But the best one isn't available for free anymore. Well actually you can probably find it for download from somewhere, but then it will not be registerable and thus will subject you to a 30 minute session limit.

Are these boxes NetWare or Linux? I'm assuming that you're saying they're NetWare, and non-OES boxes. Can you not use rconsole, or rconj?

Re: Netware Client Backup Ver 551
If you want files from DATA1: included in the scheduled incremental backup, then you need to remove the -DATA1: from the DOMAIN statement. Otherwise the DATA1: volume will be completely ignored during the incremental backup operation. Next: Re-run the query inclexcl command, except add the -detail option: query inclexcl -detail Check the following: - To the right of the INCLUDE pattern you should see the source of the INCLUDE statement, such as dsm.opt, server, and so on. Verify it shows dsm.opt. - Make sure a client option set is not specifying an INCLUDE statement that supersedes your dsm.opt INCLUDE statement. So be sure to review the entire query inclexcl output. Also: - Make sure the node is in the same policy domain that has the E4LCLASS management class. - Make sure the E4LCLASS management class actually exists (and verify the spelling) and that it has a backup copy group; though I would expect dsmerror.log to show some kind of error or warning message if the management class or backup copy group did not exist. - Make sure that the policy set to which E4LCLASS belongs has been activated.

Re: Netware Client Backup Ver 551
I don't see any INCLUDE statements for DATA1:, though that volume will be automatically excluded from incremental backup processing. I do see INCLUDE statements binding files on the RSEARCH[1-3]: volumes to management calss FOM2CLASS. If those are working, then your configuration is fine (I cannot argue with success!). In your DOMAIN statement for this other system, I see excludes for volumes RESEARCH[1-3]: vs. the includes for RSEARCH[1-3]:. I only mention this on the off-chance that the DOMAIN and INCLUDE statements are supposed to be referring to the same volumes, e.g., did you really mean to use DOMAIN -RESEARCH1: or is it supposed to be DOMAIN -RSEARCH1: ?

In your DOMAIN statement for this other system, I see excludes for volumes RESEARCH[1-3]: vs. the includes for RSEARCH[1-3]:. I only mention this on the off-chance that the DOMAIN and INCLUDE statements are supposed to be referring to the same volumes, e.g., did you really mean to use DOMAIN -RESEARCH1: or is it supposed to be DOMAIN -RSEARCH1: ?

Re: Netware Client Backup Ver 551
No problem :) every time I change the dsm.opt I restart the scheduler. I also tried domain all-local data: and it backs up the whole volume excluding the directories from the exclude.dir statements, the problem is that it doesn't use the management class that I want(to tape vs disk). So it appears that the Include statements don't work, weird!

Netware, TSM and open files
Have a question about how TSM can backup open files on Netware boxes. We did some searching around and the only thing we can find is using the DYNAMIC setting on the copy group to get a fuzzy backup. Does anyone know of any other way or perhaps an add on product that works with TSM to backup open files for Netware? Any help is greatly appreciated. Sean English

Netware TSM 551 client
Sorry for the question. I am backing up about 6 TB of data, divided into 3 Netware volumes. We are forced to stop the backup because of Hydro issues in the building, the backup is on the last volume. What would it happen if I stop the backup, and re-run it later? would go to the last backed it up file or directory? what is the best way to stop the backup? Thanks in advance for your help
Re: Netware TSM 551 client
Ramiro, It will start a new backup from the beginning. Now that will mean that any changed files will be backed up, but there should not be many as you just ran the first backup. What will take time is going through the filesystems and comparing them to the database. I hope that makes sense to you Regards Steve Steven Harris, TSM Admin Sydney Australia Ramiro Ruiz wrote: Sorry for the question. I am backing up about 6 TB of data, divided into 3 Netware volumes.

Netware volume types
I was asked this question by one of our Netware admins. I could not find a simple answer. Can one of your Netware wizards help? The client is V5.5.1 We have talked about the somtech.ns1.vcu.edu node taking so long to backup. I just notice that the filespace type for most of the volumes are NTW:LONG. There are 4 volumes (PSYC, PSYCADMIN, RADBIO, RAI) that has the filespace NTW:UTF-8. Do you have any rhyme or reason why 4 of the volumes would be different? I'm wondering if that's making a difference.

On netware server prompt, type in dsmc (ensure no error message when you start that command line client) Then issue 'query tsa' just to check that connection to TSM server AND netware server are fine ; issue 'q tsa nds' if you also backup the nds. Please check that the netware account that you use with TSM has proper full rights over the destination volume. Then, try this : tsm restore VOLUME:\tsm551\* DATA:\TEMP\ -su=yes -preservepath=complete (VOLUME: being the source volume where folder was backed up ; no need to create destination folder before restoring) If files are properly backed up (did you check dsmsched.log and dsmerror.log ?), they should be properly restored on same netware server. Can you confirm you launch the client with a ncf file that should look like TSMSTART.NCF hereafter (assuming your nw server is 6.5) : LOAD SMSUT.NLM LOAD TSANDS.NLM LOAD SMDR.NLM LOAD TSAFS.NLM /nocachingmode /NoConvertUnMappableChars SEARCH ADD SYS:\TIVOLI\TSM\CLIENT\BA LOAD DSMCAD (/nocachingmode /NoConvertUnMappableChars switches are optional) If you're successfull in command line mode, then give a try to web client.

Thank you very much for your help :) From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To:Ramiro Ruiz [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 11/27/2008 6:07 AM Subject: [ADSM-L] Netware client TSAFS - Any ideas Hello Ramiro, Troubleshooting netware client can be tricky and in that case the command line is your friend. On netware server prompt, type in dsmc (ensure no error message when you start that command line client) Then issue 'query tsa' just to check that connection to TSM server AND netware server are fine ; issue 'q tsa nds' if you also backup the nds. Please check that the netware account that you use with TSM has proper full rights over the destination volume. Then, try this : tsm restore VOLUME:\tsm551\* DATA:\TEMP\ -su=yes -preservepath=complete (VOLUME: being the source volume where folder was backed up ; no need to create destination folder before restoring) If files are properly backed up (did you check dsmsched.log and dsmerror.log ?), they should be properly restored on same netware server. Can you confirm you launch the client with a ncf file that should look like TSMSTART.NCF hereafter (assuming your nw server is 6.5) : LOAD SMSUT.NLM LOAD TSANDS.NLM LOAD SMDR.NLM LOAD TSAFS.NLM /nocachingmode /NoConvertUnMappableChars SEARCH ADD SYS:\TIVOLI\TSM\CLIENT\BA LOAD DSMCAD (/nocachingmode /NoConvertUnMappableChars switches are optional) If you're successfull in command line mode, then give a try to web client. That's all I have in mind currently. Let me know if that helps. Best regards. Norman

Hello Ramiro, When you try the restore through the GUI are you selecting the location to restore to / restoring to the original location or typing in the path? I have seen this error before when the restore location was typed in and the volume name had been entered incorrectly. Failing that, are you able to map a drive to the Netware volume using the same account TSM uses for it's backups and try to create a file in the directory? Perhaps the TSM account has insufficient rights to create files on the volume? Hope this helps?! Cheers Nathan Hello, I can run backups just fine, trying to restore is another story! when I do a directory restore to a Netware volume using the web client it just sits and does nothing, When I go to the NW console logger I see this error: TSAFS.NLM 6.53.1 262 this program cannot create a file I upgraded to the latest sp.

Re: Fw: [ADSM-L] Netware client
I have it setup the way you mentioned bellow('schedmode prompted' and
'managedservices schedule webclient' ) and it works. If I changed to polled
mode doesn't work! I guess there is an issue with the netware client, read
bellow(got it from IBM) any ideas why the polled mode doesn't work?
Thanks
It appears that you are seeing the effects of this apar:
ERROR DESCRIPTION:
TSM 5.5.0.0 Netware client backup or archive of
SERVERSPECIFICINFO fails. The error also causes backups or
archives of DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL to fail, because by default,
serverspecificinfo is included in all-local domain backups.
To reproduce the SERVERSPECIFICINFO failure:
1. Issue one of the following commands:
dsmc inc serverspecificinfo
dsmc sel serverspecificinfo
dsmc arc serverspecificinfo
Result:
PrivIncrFileSpace:Received rc=1 from fioGetDirEntries:
Server Specific Info:
ANS1999E Incremental processing of 'Server SpecificInfo:
/Server Specific Info' stopped.
ANS1301E Server detected system error
and backup or archive stops.
To reproduce ALL-LOCAL failure:
1) Issue 'dsmc incremental all-local'
Result (with local volumes VOLTR: and COMPVOL:)
PrivIncrFileSpace: Received rc=1 from fioGetDirEntries:
Server Specific Info:
ANS1999E Incremental processing of 'VOLTR:' stopped.
ANS1999E Incremental processing of 'COMPVOL:' stopped.
ANS1999E Incremental processing of 'Server Specific Info:
/Server Specific Info' stopped.
ANS1301E Server detected system error
and incremental backup stops
LOCAL FIX:
Exclude serverspecificinfo from all-local domain in option file:
DOMAIN all-local -SERVERSPECIFICINFO
and do not backup or archive serverspecificinfo
until the fixing 5.5.0.1 package can be delivered.
Current target: November 30, 2007
*+* Responder Page *+*
PROBLEM SUMMARY:
* USERS AFFECTED: The version 5.5.0.0 backup-archive client *
* running on Novell NetWare. *
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: See ERROR DESCRIPTION *
* RECOMMENDATION: Apply fixing level when available. This *
* problem is currently projected to be fixed *
* in level 5.5.1. Note that this is subject *
* to change at the discretion of IBM. *
*
PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
The problem is due to an incorrect variable intialization. The
client has been fixed so that the problem no longer occurs.
Note that the variable initialization problem also exists in
version 5.3.2 - 5.4.1.x. The problem does not manifest itself
in those versions, but the version 5.4.2 client code has been
changed to include the proper variable initialization

Hello Ramiro,
Are you still in trouble with your netware client ?
what's the netware server level ? what's the TSM client level ?
can you please give details about dsm.opt file : did you add 'schedmode
prompted' and 'managedservices schedule webclient' ?
can you give extract from activity log about schedule not starting : does it
fail to find ip address ? in which state is schedule reported : pending ?
failed ? missed ?
thanks

[ADSM-L] Netware client
Hello, I am not sure if this is the appropriate place, but here it is; first, I
am very new with TSM, I took some course a few weeks back from IBM. anyway I
installed and configured TSM 5.5 on a Windows Server 2003 64 bit, I also
installed the client for Netware on a server. I can run a backup manually from
the server web GUI. but the scheduled backup show up on the DSMCAD screen but
thy just sit there and never run, I don't even get any errors!
Any ideas? I can provide more info if you like.
Thanks

Backing up Groupwise on Netware Server
Hi, Does anyone have any information on backing up a Groupwise mailserver on Netware(6.5 SP6) using a TSM server (AIX). IBM have stated that the best I can hope for is a fuzzy backup. Not really a good selling point when I'm trying to provide a single backup solution to the company. I keep finding references to St Bernards Open File Manager but need more info on how this would work. Any advice, opt file examples, configurations or tech papers gratefully received.

Re: Backing up Groupwise on Netware Server
On possibility for your to look at is GWBACKUP... http://support.novell.com/techcenter/articles/ana19991005.html http://www.novell.com/documentation/gw55/index.html?page=/documentation/gw55/gw55mnt/data/a3n60nr.html GWBACKUP will allow you to dump the data to flat files. You can then use the TSM Backup-Archive client to send and store those files on the TSM Server.

Re: Backing up Groupwise on Netware Server
I admined GW For about 9 years, and the best overall for TSM is St. Bernard's OFM. The GWBackup utility creates an exact copy of your Post Office to another location, but that adds Admin overhead. The GWTSA would work great if IBM would get off their butt and support it. Then GW Becomes just another file system, only messages, sort of like the tsands did for NDS. Set your opt file just like you would any other TSM NetWare client, and install St. Bernard to handle the open files. I've done restores after this kind of backup, and if the backup was complete, the restore always worked. Make sure you exclude the wpsin and wpsout type folders, as TSM will complain. I don't have a copy of all the excludes handy. The main folders to make *sure* you get are the ofuser, ofmsg, offile, and the post office db files.

NetWare Client full backups running when incremental is selected
Server: TSM running on z/OS 1.7 Just upgraded to 5.5 My NetWare clients are now running full backups instead of the incrementals which are specified. It looks as if every Netware server that I have is doing this. Obviously, this is killing my disk and tape storage space. This is happening on client versions from 5.2-5.4 I upgraded one client to 5.5 and tried it again - still doing the full backup. I found APAR IC36892 detailing the NWIGNORECOMPRESS bit, and tried that in the DSM.OPT of the 5.5 client. Again, it still did not help. Anyone run into this (doubtful, as I appear to be the last person running TSM on z/OS) or have any pointers in the right direction? Kevin Kinder

When the attribute gets changed, TSM sees it as a changed file and backs it up again. I ran across this issue a year or so ago at a customer site. I don't know the details (the NetWare admin was fiercely protective of his environment and wasn't forthcoming with help). If this is the case, the issue lay with NetWare, not TSM. -- Mark Stapleton Berbee (a CDW company) System engineer 7145 Boone Avenue North, Suite 140 Brooklyn Park MN 55428-1511 763-592-5963 www.berbee.com

An invalid path was used on Netware
Hi all, Sometimes the incremental backup of one of our customers Netware clients is aborted. There is a summary in the dsmsched.log of how many files are backed up etc. At exactly the same second an error is logged in dsmerror.log: 12/01/2007 16:20:02 (TSAFS.NLM 6.51.5 291) An invalid path was used. 12/01/2007 16:20:02 (TSAFS.NLM 6.51.5 291) An invalid path was used. I searched the list archive and the rest of the web but couldn't find any useful information. Anyone seen this before?

Deleting inactive copies in Netware
Hi *, We recently decommissioned a Netware server and would like to delete all inactive backups and keep the last active for 90 days. The server has been removed from the network, and I read in client version 5.3.4 there is an option to Delete Inactive files. When I try to setup a virtualnode connection to delete the inactive copies through a session in Internet Explorer, when it comes time to display the contents of a share or volume , all I get is a Displaying XX message and it never returns the list of files from which I can select the delete inactive copies. Has anyone run into this problem before ? Rich
Netware restore requirement question
We have a client with a couple old Netware 4.11 servers running TSM client 4.2.3.0. These nodes will be retired and the hardware will go away. But there is a requirement to keep the data for possible future restores. We were thinking of installing a newer version of Netware as a VMware virtual machine using a newer supported client. The current 4.11 filespaces are all NTW:LONG. Can we restore (using either FROMNODE or VIRTUALNODENAME) from the old 4.11 node's data to this new node? What are the compatibility, or more specific the INcompatibilities in doing restores across Netware releases. Bill Boyer Select * from USERS where CLUE0 0 rows returned
Re: Netware restore requirement question
Novell has a Server Consolidation Utility that allows you to move data from old servers to newer ones. It's a free download.

TSM Netware 6.5 SP5 backup errors
I have a New server NetWare 6.5 SP5 I have installed into our tree. We are using Tivoli 5.3.4 to back up all of our servers.

Re: Netware backup include/exclude/domain issues
It can be done, but it may actually take longer than backing up again: 1) export the filespace you want to move 2) while backups aren't running, in TSM, use RENAME NODE to rename the source client to BLAH rename the target client to SOURCE 3) import the filespace 4) rename SOURCE back to TARGET 5) rename BLAH back to SOURCE 6) now check the filespace names that belong to TARGET. If it's windows, you'll need to rename the one you imported so that the UNC name of the filespace is \\TARGET\whatever From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager on behalf of Doug Fox Sent: Thu 6/7/2007 2:34 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: Netware backup include/exclude/domain issues Is there any way to take an existing filespace from one node and move it to another?

With over 15M objects, a regular (not no-query) restore would often take hours to get the list of what to pick from to restore. We usually did very specific backups, not GUI. I would highly recommend dividing into multiple TSM nodes. We are doing that with our big-honking Netware server. There are over 20-departments. Each will have their own volume with their own TSM node. This is for both security/administration but also load.

Netware backup include/exclude/domain issues
We have this big-honkin Netware server we are creating, to consolidate multiple smaller servers. Each department will have their own volume. Therefore, we need to create multiple opt files and nodes to keep each volumes backup separate from the others. We created separate Netware id's that have specific rights to their volumes, only. Try as I might, I can't seem to get an incremental backup from scanning all the volumes and generating errors. If I negate the volumes via the DOMAIN statement, this works. But, as we add volumes, we would have to go around and update dozens of opt files.not a good idea since we are already at 20-volumes. I tried the approach of EXCLUDE *\*:* and then an INCLUDE server\volume:/.../ but it still scans everything. Even tried exclude.dir * It also keeps erroring on trying to backup System specific information eventhough I have DOMAIN -SYS: -NDS. How do you exclude this attempt to backup the system specific information on a Netware system ? What am I doing wrong ? Anyone else have this kind of configuration.

Re: Netware backup include/exclude/domain issues
We installed TSM to each volume, set up an opt for the specific volume with the domain statement pointing only to that volume. Even renamed the dsmc.nlm to a more volume specific name such as dsmcshare.nlm. This allowed us to load/unload as needed without effecting the other volumes. We also renamed dsmcad.nlm in the same fashion.

Re: Netware backup include/exclude/domain issues
I have something similar with a NetWare cluster here. Any given server has an instance of the TSM client loaded for the local SYS volume and server specific information. Then, each clustered resource (which has its own volume) loaded on that server has another instance of the TSM client. The dsm.opt file for the server contains the line: DOMAIN SYS: SERVERSPECIFICINFO This causes that instance of the TSM client to only backup sys and serverspecificinfo, but skips the other volumes that are present on the server The dsm.opt file on the other volumes have the line: DOMAIN VOLNAME: and only backup the volume that is explicitly stated in the domain line. There shouldn't be a need to negate volumes using DOMAIN. Just explicitly define the volume you want to backup.

I tried the DOMAIN VOLUMENAME: -NDS but it wasn't happy. Not sure why you would need to install TSM multiple times. We do have individual opt files and are using -optfile= options and that works.

Novell/Netware TSM backup hangs
Hi All, Im looking for known issues, pertaining to TSM client 5.2.3 and Novell/Netware environments, where the TSM incremental backups may hang for not so obvious reasons. We have already eliminated network problems as being the cause. Are there any technotes, incidents that anyone is aware of that might hint of cause/solutions for this scenario. Im looking for anything and everything at this point as we are experiencing very very slow backups for some of our Novell clients. The data has also increasing but the window which the backups take, have increased on much larger span, so it is hard for us to point that as the root cause. Novell Client is at 5.6 Thanks in advance guys. -- Regards,
Re: Novell/Netware TSM backup hangs
Fawad, have you run a sample backup and gathered an instrumentation trace? This would be a good place to start to try and determine where a bottleneck might exist. To gather this, place the statement testflag instrument:detail in the dsm.opt file and run the backup. Perhaps if you do this and post the output of the file (named dsminstr.report for Novell) to the listserv, members of the listserv (and I) could look at the result. We also would need to know much more about your environment that you have. I would also suggest opening up a PMR with IBM Software support. They will send you a performance questionnaire and gather the appropriate traces that they would need to look at the performance problem you're having.

Re: TSM client on a Netware Cluster
Hi Timothy, Here's how we do it on two clusters with 4 and 16 cluster volumes: TSM on a Netware Cluster Assumptions: TSM Clients on NetWare servers already running Client nodes and schedules for cluster backups defined in TSM SYS:/ETC/SMS/TSA.CFG has Disable Cluster value set to yes Up to date on TSAFS and SMS patches Create a /Tivoli folder in the root of all clustered volumes. This is where the clustered clients will live. Copy over every file and folder from SYS:/TIVOLI/TSM/CLIENT/BA (or wherever the server TSM clients are) to the /Tivoli folder except these: TSM.PWD *.log dsm.opt Rename the DSMCAD.NLM file to something like DSMCAD-CV01.NLM. In other words make each cluster nodes DSMCAD unique. Create a dsm.opt file for the clustered resource. Heres an example: ** * TSM Config file for [ClusterVOL01] * --- COMMMETHODTCPIP TCPSERVERADDRESS tsm01.mrl.ubc.ca TCPPORT 1500 NODENAME [ClusterVOL01] HTTPPORT 1611 ERRORLOGRETENTION 7 SCHEDLOGRETENTION 7 MANAGEDSERVICES WEBCLIENT SCHEDULE DOMAIN [ClusterVOL01] CLUSTERNODE YES PASSWORDDIR [ClusterVOL01]:\Tivoli PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE NWPWFILE YES ERRORLOGNAME [ClusterVOL01]:\Tivoli\dsmerror.log SCHEDLOGNAME [ClusterVOL01]:\Tivoli\dsmsched.log SCHEDMODE POLLING NWEXITNLMP NO *** The dsm.opt file should have a different HTTPPORT value for each cluster resource such as: [ClusterVOL01] 1611 [ClusterVOL02] 1612 [ClusterVOL03] 1613 [ClusterVOL04] 1614 The CLUSTERNODE value should be YES. THE NWEXITNLMP value (aka press any key to close) should be NO We have an account with read rights to all clustered objects and servers (i.e their OU). Lets call it backer.users.ourOU. Use this account with all TSM clients. Run [Path:/to/]dsmc -optfile=[Path:/to/dsm.opt] Enter q tsa on command line. If it asks for a NetWare account and password then use the backer account. If it doesnt ask then the output should look like this: tsm q tsa NetWare TSA Information TSA Name: [Server_Name] TSA Module Name.: TSAFS.NLM TSA Version.: 6.57.1 SMDR Version: 6.57.1 User/Password Location..: [ClusterVOL01]:/TIVOLI/TSM.PWD User/Password Valid.: YES Modify the cluster resources load and unload scripts. Add these entries to the end of the cluster volumes load script: delay 5 load [ClusterVOL01]:\tivoli\dsmcad-CV01.nlm -optfile=[ClusterVOL01]:\tivoli\dsm.opt Add the entries to the start of the cluster volumes unload script: unload dsmagent unload dsmcad-CV01 delay 2 The delay values may to be tweaked to add more time depending on the nature of cluster resources. The above setup means that cluster resource CADs will follow their cluster object as it loads and unloads. Bad things will most likely happen if you try and move a clustered resource during a backup so I'd advise against that. But other than that everything been fine for us.

The options file for this node is dsmdop2.opt The command I am issuing is: dsmc restore data:admdop/* -subdir=yes -optfile=sys:apps\tivoli\tsm\client\ba\dsmdop2.opt I get the return error: TSAFS 6.51.4 291 an invalid path was used ANS4005E Error processing data:/admdop/blah blah file not found ANS4005E Error Processing '': file not found This error message repeats for every file in the directory. Running the same command with the pick option shows that there are indeed files available to be restored from this node and directory. I also tried to restore just one file, with the same result. I tried restoring to a different directory on the same server, again the same result. I looked through Richard Sims reference and searched the archives, but I can't find any fixes for this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Kevin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Netware client error
My Netware admin reports that if you use the 5.3.4 TSM client for NetWare to back up a SAN attached volume, it backs up as a NTWFS filespace type. It should be backing it up as a NTW:LONG filespace type. The 5.2.3 client backs up these volumes correctly. Has anyone else seen this problem? David
