Mike, The BMR Server currently will not run on an NT machine. There are inexpensive UNIX boxes on the market that will easily hold a BMR Server, so this might be a vaible option yet. While porting the BMR Server to Windows NT (or 2000) is in our product plan, we have not yet set a release date f

RMAN is the Oracle backup utility. You can set it up and use it without any interaction with TSM. Think of it is a backup product that can back up to local tape or disk. When you add the TSM TDP, it just sort of makes TSM look like a funky tape driver to RMAN. YOu still run your backups and re

I don't know why you are having the overall problem, but there is also a problem in your specification. Periods are treated just like any other character, not a wild card. So when you specify: INCLUDE DATA:\USERS\...\*.* you are telling TSM to match filenames that have at least one . in the name

You want to use: backup stgpool backupdisk copytape as example. Look at back stgp command for options. This command copies all files from backupdisk to the copytape that haven't already been copied. Yes, this is smart. If you later do a backup stg for the tape to tape copy, that only copies

You can't destroy dltpool without destroying any copies of the data that are in your copypool. Essentially, if you have a backup of a file in a primay pool, and you cause the db entry for that file to be deleted, it also deletes the record of that file that is in the copy pool. However, you DON"T

You must have a copy pool? If you have a copy pool, when TSM runs AUDIT, it just marks the files as damaged and doesn't delete them from the data base (that would invalidate the copies in the copy pool as well.) You need to repair the problem by running the RESTORE STGPOOL poolname. The first t

I'll assume you have cache=yes on the pool. What if you set cache=no for the next migration? Perhaps that will clear up this problem. If not, you could delete the volume from the pool after the migration and then re-add it. That's a pretty big hammer, but once you've migrated all the data you
