LOL!  I think Photoshop was easier.  But if anyone is worried, I'm
attending Tivoli training starting next week.  (wish I could attend
Photoshop training!)

Yes, that's the page I've been looking at.

However, bootinfo -K returns 64.  And prtconf returns the following - so
I think I'm okay after all.  Not sure why I thought this was a 32-bit
machine (except that I have 4 other AIX machines, and 25 RedHat Linux
machines and have been doing system upgrades on all of them at the same
time).

But that brings me to another question - I was looking at the client
requirements.  For RedHat Linux, it looks like TSM 6 is going to
required RedHat 5.  I have several production servers at RHEL 4/4.5 -
the software application isn't certified for RHEL 5.  Is that going to
work?

I thought AIX 6.1 was 64-bit only, yes?
So is it the clients you are concerned about re 64 bit?

There are 32 and 64 bit versions of all the supported clients.

server I have was sufficient.  But all the documentation that I've found
lately just mentions 64-bit systems.  I'm getting a little nervous since
there's no way we're going to get the funds for a new server.

You can backup the nodes.
You can backup the service groups.
You can backup SQL Server with TDP for Databases.
You can backup Sharepoint with TDP for Sharepoint.
You can add in LanFree.

Just out of curiousity, what clustering software is in use? MSCS? VCS?

Hi ,

I've inherited a TSM setup recently and it's been ticking over fine  but
now I need to make some changes, and thought I'd ask the  experts for
some help :-) . It's TSM 5.2 and a W2K/3 environment. One server we're
backing up is a sharepoint cluster, with different cluster drives active
on each node. Currenlty we backup the local drives on each node, and
also a SQL agent backup. The DBA's also backup SQL to a cluster drive.
They now want this drive backed up as well . How do I do this? Bear in
mind, all I've done with TSM so far is checked that the existing backups
worked, so in simple terms please!! :-)

TIA

We are running a similar setup with our cluster nodes.

Cluster1  - nodea, nodeb, nodec   - all active.
3-5 cluster groups with disk resources. Which are serving as 3-5 file
and print servers. I use the cluster name and "file and print alias
name" as my TSM definitions. If you want to add the C drives, those
should have a separate schedule service configured the same as a
standalone box.

TSM definitions.
Clustername_aliasname1
Clustername_aliasname2
Clustername_aliasname3
Clustername_aliasname4
Clustername_aliasname5


On each node of the cluster we create an options file for each tsm
definition with the same name in the Tivoli\TSM\baclient directory.
Clustername_aliasname1.opt
Clustername_aliasname2.opt
Clustername_aliasname3.opt
Clustername_aliasname4.opt
Clustername_aliasname5.opt

Create five schedulers and 5 Webclients (if needed) on each cluster node
each preceeded by the alias name.
Aliasname1 - TSM backup scheduler
Aliasname1 - TSM Client acceptor
Aliasname1 - TSM Remote Client Agent

Create ten cluster resources, 2 per group to allow failover of the
scheduler service and the TSM Client Acceptor also preceeded by the
alias name.


It can be complicated, and even more so when some groups require
archives or a different set of rules to back up specific data. 

I have a three node cluster with 12 different scheduler services and 6
of the definitions require a Web client.

As I understand this, you are not currently backing up any of the
cluster drives now with the regular BA client?

The usual way to do this is to create a "virtual" TSM client node.
Most of my customers register the backup clients for the local
filesystems as the node/hostname, and register the "virtual" TSm client
name as the cluster name to back up cluster drives.

You install a second scheduler service that runs as the "virtual" TSM
client to back up the cluster drive(s).  (It has it's own dsm.opt file,
and it's own scheduler log - they should live on a cluster drive.)

That scheduler service has to be made cluster resource, and you
typically install that 2nd service on all the cluster nodes so that the
backups of the cluster drive(s) can continue, even if the primary owner
noder goes down.
That 2nd service will typically be running on 1 node, and shut down on
the others.  The Windows clustering software is repsonsible for starting
the service on the other node, if the 1st node dies.

If you've never messed with the Windows cluster manager, have one of the
Winders admins give you a tour.

I'm hesitate to go any further because I'm a little confused by the
statement "we have different cluster drives active on different nodes".
You have to think a bit about what you are trying to accomplish, and
what needs to fail over.
If you never intend to run backups in a failover situation, you only
have to install the scheduler service for the cluster drive on one node.
(OTOH, I had one customer with 4 nodes active-active-active-passive with
different Exchange stores active on each node, and it resulted in 5
scheduler services being installed on each node.)

Anyway, look in the TSM for Windows client manual, there is an appendix
that explains exactly how to set up a TSM backup for a cluster drive.
If you only have the 1 cluster drive you care about, it won't be
difficult.

BTW:  are you aware that TSm 5.2, it's been out of support for a long
time?
suggest you get upgraded soon.

AW: Newbie question about version numbers and amount of backups

2007-07-31 Thread Salak Juraj
As Richard told, you can use TSM archives.

But you can scrutinise the statament about TSM only beeing able to store 5 to 7 
file version only.
This limitation is not a TSM technical limitation, TSM can store even unlimited 
amount of backup versions.
5 to 7 versions is merely a policy which your TSM administrator set-up using 
such values.
she does have simple possibility to create another policy (called management 
class / backup copy group)
And she can even apply it to your files only, leaving all other files with 5-7 
backup versions.
Sure, you must be able to define your files by either unique location and/or 
name pattern for this purpose.

If this policy change and consequent the slightly risen complexity of your TSM 
configuration
and the higher demand on TSM Hardware ressources pays for your business 
requirement,
only you and your TSM guy can decide.

It seem you are telling about 75 SQL server backups, 
in this case SQL backup agent should be considered.

Betreff: Newbie question about version numbers and amount of backups

I haven't actually used TSM very much (my organization has an employee that 
just works with TSM), but I was wondering what solutions there were for 
implementing something similar to a grandfather/father/son rotation scheme for 
keeping files that my organization backs up.

I've asked our TSM person for suggestions, but she's telling me that our only 
option is to save 5 or 7 copies of a file.  
We don't have agents or the like for SQL servers, so currently we do a dump 
every night that gets backed up by TSM.  
For many of my systems, this means we only have a backup of 5 or 7 days.

Currently my only option is to append the date onto the dump which forces TSM 
to keep it as a seperate file each day.  Is there any way to just keep 
different dates of the same file without me having to go back to my 75 SQL 
servers and change the job so that the date is on the end of each filename?  
Thanks in advance for the help.

Use the TSM Archive facility.  Its modus operandi is to keep multiple
versions of the same file, so seems a natural for your needs.  A
Description is stored along with the file, and so you can thereafter
select a given version according to a unique Description that you
choose to store with the version, or the default datestamp
Description text.  A pre-chosen retention period governs all archived
files.  See your platform's client manual for particulars.

2007-03-01 Thread Angus Macdonald
I have a TSM 5.3 server with a 150GB disk pool (PACS_DISK_POOL). Highmig=90 and 
lowmig=70. The disk pool is currently 100% utilised. Shouldn't an automatic 
migration to the next storage pool (PACS_TAPE_POOL) have started?

I tried running MIGRATE STGPOOL PACS_DISK_POOL lowmig=60 but was told there was 
no data to migrate. I tried MIGRATE STGPOOL PACS_DISK_POOL lowmig=0 but got the 
same response.

The next storage pool has plenty of free capacity and scratch tapes.

I'm out of ideas so all suggestions welcome.

Re: Newbie Question cluster backups

2006-09-25 Thread Robben Leaf
The Windows B/A Client manual has a good description on how to do this in
one of its appendices.

In general terms, you need to define a separate node name for the data to
be backed up from the new drive; get an option file on the new drive; set
up services (TSM Schedules, Client Acceptor, and Remote Agent) on EACH of
the physical hosts that the vnode can fail over to, and set up cluster
services in Windows' Cluster Administrator to control those services.

Some gotchas: For clustered services, make sure you choose an HTTP port and
TCP client port that are different from those used by all other nodes
within the cluster. Make sure the option file has only the drives for that
vnode in its Domain statement. The set of services on the different
physical hosts for that vnode must have IDENTICAL names (i.e. the service
called "TSM Scheduler: VNODENAME" must be named exactly the same way on
every host that that vnode can fail over to). The local services on each
physical host for the vnode must be set to Manual, not Automatic - they
will be controlled by the cluster services. The most straightforward way to
get the password validated for the services on each physical host is to
fail the vnode over to that physical host before you create the services.

Hope this helps - good luck!

Hi,

Have a question about setting a backup. I've inherited a Tivoli backup
solution and am very slowly getting to grips with it ( have a NetBackup
background) and now need help in setting up a new backup. We've a sql
cluster wdccdb01 which has been set up backup the local drives via each
side of the cluster separately (wdccsq01/02) - The clustered disk
resource hold the SQL database and that backs up the SQL agent, so
there's a dsm.opt file  in TSM/baclient locally  for each node  and a
dsm.opt file in TSM/TDPsql locally on each client. Now we've just put on
another drive to the cluster( non SQL) - First time for me to set up a
new backup -  What's the best way to set this backup up

Cheers

Gary

Thanks for that.
I'm lucky in that my environment is very close to the example in the
implementation guide redbook, so I'm able to carefully work through the
book, learning exactly what to do at every stage. Now I have a working
system I have the confidence to start "icing the cake", not to mention ask
questions here.

My general advice for newbies:

Take home the TSM Admin Guide and Admin Reference. Read the Admin Guide
from cover to cover. As commands and options are discussed in the guide,
read up on them in the reference.

In the same fashion,  also recommend reading the TSM Backup-Archive Client
user's guide from cover to cover. Pick the client manual for the client
you will be using the most. After that, you can probably "cherry-pick"
material to read from the other client books that apply to your
installation.

Yes, it is a daunting task, given the size of the books, but if you can
get through one or two chapters a day, you should be able to do it in a
month or less; and you will find it to be a worthwhile investment of your
time. It is my own experience that this is the best way to learn a product
that you will be working with, and it will give you a good overall
acquaintence with TSM's capabilities.

In the admin guide, pay special attention to the chapters on protecting
your TSM server (the database, recovery log, and storage pools).

Also go to http://www.redbooks.ibm.com and in the search box, enter:

Re: Newbie question 2!

2006-09-22 Thread John Monahan
One thing I've noticed is that if you run a script from the Admin Center
the output is in a different format.  SQLDISPLAYMODE doesn't make any
difference.

Here is a perfect example.  Run from the command line and then run from
inside Admin Center to see the difference.  Then try playing with
sqldisplaymode.

select node_name from nodes where collocgroup_name is null

Hi,

If possible, you can change your config to do only one full db backup to
tape (and send this one off-site allong with your copy tapes) and all
other (incr.) db backups to a devclass type=file, where the file is
pointing to a network share (at another location).

Re: Total newbie question about DB Backups

2006-09-21 Thread Smith, I (Ian)
 
For protection ensure that the ROLL FORWARD mode is on and there is
enough log space to take account for load during the period between TSM
DB Backups. This can be up to 13.2GB. Also set the Database backup
trigger, and ensure there is always scratch tapes. Put the DB and Log
volumes on different physical disks and both are TSM mirrored-ensure the
Log has sequential mirrorwrite set.

I would advise a scheduled DB backup after all the offsite volumes are
created. i.e 1 DB backup per day.

The Roll Forward mode will then allow you to recover the database from
tape and roll it forward from the transactions in the log.

Volhist will show the DBBackup tapes:

select * from volhistory where type='BACKUPFULL'

Re: Total newbie question about DB Backups

2006-09-21 Thread Smith, I (Ian)
 
By setting the DRMDBBACKUPEXPIREDAYS, allows you to automatically
recycle the TSM DB tapes. This is usually set to something like a 5 day
cycle, based on how realsitic it is that you would want to recover your
TSM environment back to. This means there will always be a critical
volume of tapes used for DB Backup. Be sure to set the REUDE DELAY
parameter on the copy storage pools to match the retention of the
database backup. This ensures the tape volumes required for that DB will
be there, rather than being over written on the standard DRM cycle.
(They will go into a pending state).

Re: Newbie question - Reruns

2006-07-26 Thread Andrew Raibeck
What is the nature of the failed backup? That is, how do you know it
failed? Also, just to be clear, is the status "missed" or "failed"?
Sometimes the word "failed" is used synonomously with "missed" when, from
TSM's perspective, they are not the same thing... just want to be clear.

Without more detail, it is difficult to say for sure what the problem
might be. Things that I can think of off the top of my head include:

- The scheduler is not running on the client machines.

- There is a network/firewall problem preventing the client or server from
contacting each other.

- The scheduler is running with SCHEDMODE POLLING (which is also the
default SCHEDMODE setting), and QUERYSCHEDPERIOD is a relatively large
interval.

Things to check:

- Confirm whether you are dealing with a missed or failed schedule.

- Check the TSM server activity log around the time that the client
schedule started (or should have started). For a failed schedule, look for
any messages related to that client from the time the event started to see
if there are any messages that might hint at the problem. For a missed
schedule, see if the server was trying to contact the client. Note: if you
use SCHEDMODE POLLING, the server will not try to contact the client; in
which case, look further back in the activity log for any messages related
to the client that might hint at the trouble, or at least the last time
the client successfully contacted the server.

- Make sure the node is not locked.

- If the schedules were missed, make sure the server is configured to
support enough concurrent sessions to allow all node backups to start
before the schedule window expires.

- Make sure the server is not disabled for client sessions.

- Examine the failed node's dsmsched.log and dsmerror.log files for
information as to why the schedule might have failed (or missed). If the
dsmsched.log indicates that the operation started but did not end, then
maybe the scheduler is hung.

- Make sure the scheduler is running on the client. If you are using the
CAD to manage the scheduler, make sure the CAD is running; check
dsmwebcl.log to see if the CAD is having any difficulties.

- Make sure the client can contact the server. For example, maybe the
client node's password has not yet been encrypted on the client, which
would cause a schedule to not run. Run the command line or GUI client just
to ensure basic connectivity.

- See if there are any network (including firewall) problems that need to
be resolved. From the server machine, can you ping the client? From the
client machine, can you ping the server (more basic connectivity checks)?

Re: Newbie question about Space Reclamation

You did not provided version and OS of the server. Can you provide also
some information about your library - vendor, model, number of drives,
types of drives (it is possible the library is brand new with LTO2 or
upgraded with mixed LTO/DLT). Output of some commands may show the
situation in detail:
- q dri
- q path
- q v 476afxl1 f=d
- q v 505afxl1 f=d
- q stg backup_stg_pool f=d
- q stg  f=d
- q dev ltoclass1 f=d

Plus any obvious error messages in the actlog. Is there any reason for
those 564 unreadable files?

I'm chuckling a bit to myself, thinking of the old joke of how you discern
a software person: That person will indefinitely look at command display
indications in pondering the condition of a device.  There are times when
you need to just go look at the darned drive and see what its panel says
about its condition.  Never overlook the obvious: I can't tell you how
many times in my career I've seen quite intelligent people obsess over
erudite factors because they could be more intriguing than reality.  Time
is a limited resource.  Start by looking in the areas which will most
likely yield the most immediate results, and dig into laborious detail
only as it becomes necessary.

Re: Newbie question about Space Reclamation

2003-02-19 Thread Cook, Dwight E
In looking at the output of the "q mount" I see the ~waiting~ and
remembered...
often if a tape encounters errors upon being mounted, recovery work will be
performed on the tape automatically (triggered by the drive) and it will
show ~waiting on mount~ until the drive gets through with it (or at least
with 3590's I've seen this)
It might be that the tape is actually in a drive but hasn't ~officially~
been mounted yet.
I don't know if LTO tapes have all the VCR information on them like a 3590
does but if so, you might be seeing this mount pause while the system
attempts to fix problems that the drive has discovered...

Re: Newbie question about Space Reclamation

2003-02-19 Thread David Longo
With the infor you've included, I would sya you should do a
"q request".  It is probably requesting a volume that is out of the library.
I would sya a restore could be using that volume, but that would show
up in q mount.

Other possibility is there is a problem with that atpe and it won't
mount.  In that case do a "q actlog" and see if any errors about this
tape.

Re: NT dsmc command stopped working after UG (*newbie* question)

2001-10-26 Thread Andrew Raibeck

Well, the message:

ANS0101E NLInit: Unable to open message repository 'dscameng.txt'.

is telling you that it can not find the dscameng.txt file that corresponds
to the 4.1.3 client level.

I see you are running dsmc.exe out of the TEMP directory. Is this where
you have TSM installed? Or do you have the path to dsmc.exe in your %PATH%
environment variable?

First, verify that you do indeed have the correct dscameng.txt file. It
should be in the same directory as the 4.1.3 dsmc.exe, and the
modification date/time should be the same, or at least very close, for
both files.

If the dscameng.txt file looks okay, then try running your dsmc.exe
command from the directory where dsmc.exe is located. That should work.

If everything looks okay thus far, then check the DSM_* environment
variables:

   SET DSM_

This will show you all environment variable settings that begin with DSM_
(i.e. DSM_DIR, DSM_CONFIG, and DSM_LOG). They do not have to be set, but
if you wish to be able to run dsmc.exe from any directory, then you should
set them.

DSM_DIR needs to point to the directory where dscameng.txt is located
(should be the same directory where dsmc.exe is).

DSM_CONFIG needs to point to your client options file (dsm.opt).

DSM_LOG is optional, but points to the directory where dsmerror.log is
kept (typically the same as DSM_DIR).

For example, if TSM is installed to the default location of C:\Program
Files\Tivoli\TSM, then you would set the variables as follows:

SET DSM_DIR=C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\baclient
SET DSM_LOG=C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\baclient
SET DSM_CONFIG=C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\baclient\dsm.opt

That should work.

When I want to start the Webclient of Novell Netware TSM Client I got a
blank page and the log says the following to me:

Error 137 from signon authentication.

Which authentication means the system ?
