strange behavior by novell restore touching carts twice
Hi all, We had a point in time restore from Novell client (GUI). Runtime about 1.5 hours and restored 6.5MB. The restore-process needed 2 3590E carts twice and 1 3590E for 3 times. Other 9 3590E tapes for onetime.(11 Volumes for 200GB total?) All the data are from one Novell volume (200GB,NSS,also 1 Filespace), the collocation is YES since the pool exist, they are enough scratch volumes in the pool, reclaim allways to 55%, compress=yes in dev. class. 09:49:03opened volume ST0261. 09:57:24opened volume ST0205. 10:03:05opened volume ST0165. 10:07:50opened volume ST0023. 10:10:03opened volume ST0350. 10:14:10opened volume ST0264. 10:21:28opened volume ST0372. 10:24:17opened volume ST0265. 10:29:07opened volume ST0264. 10:31:11opened volume ST0265. 10:41:41opened volume ST0435. 10:43:55opened volume ST0265. 10:48:28opened volume ST0435. 10:52:22opened volume ST0377. 10:54:06opened volume ST0107. 11:07:57opened volume ST0270.

(for example like 'noquery') I have seen tapes mounted twice for one restore to Windows and Unix. As far as I can tell, this happens because files spanned across two or more tapes are not handled very intelligently. For example, TSM will mount a tape that ends with the first segment of a spanned file, mount the tape containing the rest of the file, mount some other tapes, and then remount the second tape to read files contained entirely on that tape.
Backup from Novell / Restore on Windows
Hi, Is it possible backup files from Novell server using Novell B/A Client and restore it on Windows server using windows B/A Client? Is there any work around to achieve this? (other than mapping Novell server disk to Windows and backup using Windows B/A Client) Regards Rane

Novell Restore with spaces
I am still back on Novell 4.11 (yes, unsupported, we are trying to remedy that), and a user has a directory name with spaces in it. How do I restore files within that directory. His directory is: data:home\username\my directory with spaces\filetorestore.xls And he needs this point in time (of course). How do I put in spaces? I tried %20 and enclosing the directory with single quotes, and double quotes, nothing seems to work. My current owrkaround is doing a re-directed restore of the entire directory to another directory name (without spaces) as a point in time, like: restore -pitdate=05/05/2003 -pittime=23:59:59 data:home/userID/dir* data:home/userID/newdirectory then go copy the file out of the restored directory.

Novell restore
I have a Novell server that the file ownership rights/ attributes have been lost, however the files are still in place. Is there a way to just restore the files attribute without restoring the file or the directories?
Re: Novell restore
Try do a normal restore ... in the restore command specify '-volinfo -replace=no' as part of you parameters and you should be fine. The rights should be restored but the file not replaced if it exists.

Novell restore : ANS1905E
Hi all, TSM-Server : V.4.1.4 on AIX 4.3.3 TSM-Client : V 4.2.1.27 on Netware 5.00.09 Supp-Pack 02 During restoring of data on a novell server we got the following error for about 4000 different objects ( of 1.100.000 restored objects) : 10/22/2002 16:40:27 ANS1905E NetWare SMS error processing 'DATEN:/PROJEKTE/H92 ZWG RMT/Protokolle/Bauprotkolle/Besp.26.08.doc': (TSA500.NLM 5.4 315) The program's attempt to scan failed, probably because an invalid path was specified. The restore was a command line restore of a complete volume. In a second try we could restore those files with the web-client. But what caused these errors ? Thanks for any help Christoph
Re: Novell restore question
Hi Robert! TSM supports multi-session backup. Multi-session restore is not yet supported. I heard that it will be implemented in TSM 5.1, so until that time, you will have to start 3 separate dsmc restore processes, like Bill suggested.

Scheduling a Novell restore

Novell restore performance.
Hi All, I have TSM 4.1.2 on NT box With 3494 library. The TSM Server have no more then 20 clients. The performance on the TSM usually is good. if I am restoring a small nt file the restore is taking no more then 3 minutes which is very nice. My problem is on my novell box. Will I am restoring a file( about 3mb file size ) from the TSM server this process take about 17 minute. I assumed that this was the time for the 3494 to search for the file on the cardrig, but after I checked the q mount I have nothets that the mount for the cardrig start after about 14 minutes. Firs think that cam in mind is that the system querying the database in that time, but I have monitored the system and there was no CPU or IO utilization more then usual. Why the 3494 shuttle is mount the cardrig after such along time? Is there any way to tell TSM to make the mount more quickly ? Thanks in advise Ofer Ccc.
Re: NOVELL RESTORE
I am trying to restore files from a Novell server that is NOT currently running. What is the trick to do this? I know that with NT, I can use a virtualnodename. Marc - Use -nodename. See the B/A manual, chapter 3, Restoring or Retrieving Your Files to Another Client Node. Richard Sims, BU
Strange behavior on Novell restore
ADSM Novell client 3.1.08 ADSM Aix Server 3.1.2.40 While trying to attempt a restore of a Netware 4.11 box, I came across an error that is not letting me restore one file. When I run the restore one time it says 1 file restore but the file size is 0. Try the restore again and it fails with the following error: "ANS4014E Error processing 'file name': unknow system error (150) encountered. Program ending". The only thing strange about the file name is it starts with an underscore, but there are 2 other files named similarily and they restored fine. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Jeff
