Tom,
I too am interested as our Database will grow to 300GB and I believed we
could backup and restore in two hours.
Do yo backup the full 650GB each night with Util or do you use Rman and
incrementals?
Many Thanks

Actually, query backupsetcontents will show what is in the backupset. The
downside is this may generate a very long list of files/directories. The
upside is you can pipe the output to a file and search the file.
I'll bet a good UNIX dude could write some pipe thingy to find a specified
file
Hi Thomas,
First, I think you allways should call IBM support.
Anyway, the problem you described is solved in TSM Client 4.2.2.X.
Hope this helps,

Dear *SM-ers,

Couple unrelated questions:
1. When I query a 3570 library, there's one tape that baffles me:

I hope I can also contribute somehow to the FAQ with few additions and
suggestions for correction.

Tapes like this generally become this way due to some error such as not
being able to read the volume's internal label when mounted to fill a

This could also occur when you checkin a scratch tape, without setting the

My experience with tapes in this condition is that the write protect tab
was set on by accident. AS Dwighty check the tape out. Then check
the Write Protect. If it is on, then set it off and check the tape back

This may seem like an obvious question, but for some reason I'm having some trouble

Its vital NOT to backup the TSM database and stgpools with TSM. You will blow out
your tape usage with useless data, and this may impact TSM operations for other
clients.
In your dsm.sys file, exclude the TSM db, log and diskpools. Ideally they will be in
separate filesystems so
