  Thanks Tobias, it's definitely a problem in the script.  I've fixed
it and will be putting out a new version on Monday that includes quite

AW: [tsm] Perl TSM daily reporting script.

2003-11-07 Thread Salak Juraj
hello,

me was bitten as well.
Had I not tested full server restore I would only have recognised missing
backup of whole file system in real disaster recovery case :(
Had I tested it before the acces rights change the result would be quite
same.

I find this suggestion (see below) 
*must* be part of documentation at the least (Andy?)

regards
Juraj Salak

Yes, I've been bitten by this. A Windows 2000 client ran the Client
Acceptor under the LocalSystem account. One day, the Windows administrator
changed a drive to exclude LocalSystem from having access. The TSM client
didn't use a DOMAIN statement.

This resulted in that drive to be skipped without *any* message, warning or
error. If the drive would have been in a DOMAIN statement, an error would
have
been issued.

There is an APAR for this behaviour, but that is closed as a suggestion
because IBM finds it too much trouble to fix.

This mischaracterizes the situation, as it tells only half the story.

The APAR you refer to is IC35953. The reason it was closed SUG is due to
the extent of the code changes required to fix it; it is not as trivial as
it sounds. Such code changes are beyond the scope of an APAR fix (not
every problem can be fixed within an APAR) -- believe me, we tried.
However, this APAR is still on the to do list, and has certainly not
been closed and forgotten.

It would have been nice if this information was included in the documentation
or the README of the Windows clients. That doesn't involve large code
changes.

 However, this APAR is still on the to do list, and has certainly not
 been closed and forgotten.

That's good to hear, but the wording of that APAR and previous experiences
with TSM support made it look otherwise. Through the normal support
channels, one encounters much resistance from IBM when a potential or
suspected bug is involved; the phrase works as designed is sometimes
being used much too lightly.

By using the wording I did, I was barking up the wrong tree: the IBM people
on this list are very helpful and very concerned with the quality of TSM.

Patrick,

thanks for sharing this - for me, this is yum! :)

  I've placed the script on my website rather than send it out
individually.  This is a preliminary version and might not work for
everyone nor is it fully documented yet.   Any feed back is welcome.
my 2c:

If I run
select library_name, status, count(*) as NO_OF_Tapes from
adsm.libvolumes group by library_name, status
it tells me i have 6 scratch tapes,
your script does not say anything:
7. Scratch Volumes

  Scratch volumes are the volumes that TSM uses to do... well pretty
 much everything.  If you run out then the server will break and bad
 juju will happen. All of the numbers below should be greater than at
 least 5.

8. Paths and Drives
Is that how it is supposed to work?

TIA for input,

greets, tobi... :)

Good luck :)

P.S.  Thanks for all those who send suggestions, I'll work on
integrating them.

 David Patrick, Looks nice.  But I hope you aren't going to rely
 David on the schedule completion status to tell you whether a
 David backup has been successful.  You really need to mine the
 David last backup dates of q filespace f=d (or the equiv select).

 Ah... no I hadn't realized that :)  I'm actually quite new to TSM
 and this is exactly the feedback that I was hoping to get.  I've added
 that to the todo list.

Yes, I've been bitten by this. A Windows 2000 client ran the Client
Acceptor under the LocalSystem account. One day, the Windows administrator
changed a drive to exclude LocalSystem from having access. The TSM client
didn't use a DOMAIN statement.

This resulted in that drive to be skipped without *any* message, warning or
error. If the drive would have been in a DOMAIN statement, an error would have
been issued.

There is an APAR for this behaviour, but that is closed as a suggestion
because IBM finds it too much trouble to fix.
