Hi,
I have 2 "3583" library with "3580 LTO" drives on them. I am
confused about firmwares. Do firmwares coming with "appcode.exe"
include FMR firmwares for the drives or do they include only library firmware?
I can easily update library firmare with serial cable as "download -C1
-FVn_n_n.lif"

Hi,
Can you give me some hints about offsite backup automation? Can anybody
send me some schedule samples to automate offsite backups?

Are these by any chance NFS mounted directories? We do a lot of
archives with loopback-mounted filesystems, and over the course
of multiple iterations of the dsmc client we have found that
ADSM/TSM have treated these filesystems differently wrt to what
is FILESPACE_NAME and what is HL_NAME.

(1) is an option but time consuming (3200 tapes!)
(2) might not be an option - it depends how paranoic you are. If someone
(usually a virus) fills sector 0 on a PC disk with garbage this does not
automatically mean the data is lost. But it might take too much efforts. If
the tapes are not degaused
Be aware that the "filesystem" is not equal to "all directories and files
under the mount point tree"!
So continuing with your example and assuming we have filesystems /work,
/work/data and /work/data/martine:
a file /work/dummy_file will give us FILESPACE_NAME='/work', HL_NAME='/',
LL_NAME='dummy
Or just the opposite - a volume with data checked in as scratch, tried to
be used and (auto)changed by TSM to private to prevent scratch volumes
allocation become blocked.

I presume you have a server that has the TAPEUTIL utility (NTUTIL on NT).
If so, there is a capability to "erase" the tape using the same
functionality as the mainframe dataset erase (DSE) otherwise know as Erase

Hi,
We currently have a problem, where our ESA 1 disk array will crash when
the disk that our database backs up to is full. Has anyone else suffered

FYI #3 won't do anything to the data...
I talked with someone that had relabeled (by mistake) some tapes
(with valid data) on new 3590 E1A drives
they then put the labels back on with the 3590 B1A drives and experienced
only limited data loss. I believe just the first file on the tape(s).
There are several ways to do this:
1) Use another backup utility to write over the tape. You can use tar,
cpio, NT backup, or whatever to write over either the whole tape or
merely the TSM label.
2) Just do # 1 above to the TSM DB backups since the remaining tapes are
useless without the DB bac
Stu,
Sure you can do that. Format the new volume you want to use for the
database, then add the volume to the data base and extend it. Delete the
current volumes one at a time by reducing the data base by the size of the
volume you are deleting and then just delete it. TSM will move the data

for your local harddisks and/or NFS mounts.

Hi all!
I have open registration on the server and at first login dsmc starts asking

Does anybody knows how to pass answers on PC to that questions from script?

Can I create one volume for each through this process? I understand that I
need to have equiv. or better size for the new volumes prior to mirroring,
but there are currently 4 log volumes and 3 database volumes. I want to
amalgamate them and have one of each properly sized, then mirror, the

Stu,
Creating mirrors is good way to move your log volumes and database. Format
your log volumes, the same size as your current logs, then add them as
mirrors. When the log volume mirror is in synch you can delete the current
log volumes.

I went ahead yesterday and applied the patch to my production servers. I didn't see any evidence of mount point wait
failures from last night, nor any drives becoming unavailable due to mount point
errors.
So, hopefully, 4.2.1.9 DID fix the problem!

We solved this exact problem by reducing BUFPOOLSIZE in dsmserv.opt. It was
set very high, causing TSM to (apparently) pin that much memory for its own
use - then the OS didn't have enough. Symptoms: high paging, rotten TSM
performance, admin sessions took minutes to connect.

Along thos same lines maybe if there are three file systems with the
following naming conventions

/work/data/martine
Would TSM back up each of these filesystems separately thus giving you three
different file names?

I think the wide range of answers as to what this output means is a good
indication that IBM would do well to develop a more concise tool for
reviewing resource utilization. As for my opinion I would start with
'vmtune' and then look at 'iostat'. Good Luck
