We also see this error from time to time.
With the error TSM leaves a .file in the cache directory, that causes new
errors. I started a PMR at Tivoli.

Sorry should have tagged this onto my previous reply.
This is one of the graphs tsmmanager does, is this what you need??
Btw, I'm only a happy customer of the product and nothing else, but am more
than happy for huge amounts of sponsorship money ;)

Hi Christy!
Check both the stbio.log and the dsierror.log. Probably one of them contains
more useful error messages.

Hi *SM-ers!
Last week I read about Rodney Clark doing a 400 objects a second expiration.
I checked my expiration process: it's inspecting about 20 objects a second.

Hi Eric,
I'm running an H50 with 2GB memory and 4 CPU's, a 10GB Db (80% utilized) on
SSA disks
and get about 76 objects per second.
I have seen big improvements when doing an UNLOADDB/LOADDB - so I'm going to
do this once
or twice a year. This takes 5 to 6 hours for our configuration.

dsmserv restore db also worked for me with automated libraries. The manual
states that dsmserv loaddb works only with manual libraries, but if you
have a valid devconfig file, dsmserv restore db should work ok.

I am not sure whether the snmp monitor is sufficient... not that I've ever
managed to get it working in solaris (!). Nor is simply checking for the
presence of the process good enough. We've found that the server can on

2512 is the return code from TDP Oracle...means that you had a license

TSM platform off mainframe onto AIX.
There is only two ways of doing this:
1. Do export of all your nodes from the S/390 server, and do import from
thoose tapes into your Sun TSM platform. This will take a long time
Andy -
Thanks for all the good information. I have opened a pmr with support on this.
I'm not seeing any other errors in the activity log around this time. The
dsmsched.log on the client reports an unknown system error. This error is
only occurring on one system, that previous to a week ago
We've run into that... even a process check for dsmserv often times isn't
even enough, this is why I do (on an hourly basis) a little script like
#!/bin/ksh
ONCALLPERSON=$(head -1 $HOME/bin/oncallperson)
for ADSMSERV in $(cat $HOME/bin/tsm_server_list)
do
dsmadmc -id=blah -pass=blah
Problem there is the tape media on which all the client data is stored.
Is the same media available both on your ~mainframe~ and on your Sun box ?
probably not so you're out of luck in general
(and I like IBM/AIX boxes more than Sun/Solaris, just me...)
I took two environments off MVS a long time
Diana,
Have you tried backing this node up under a different node name as a test??
I had a problem similar to this on a client. All bacukps were running fine,
then one day, strange messages in activity log. We could get a backup to
finish under a different node name. All that we could surmise
How do others manage this?
We use Servergraph/TSM. One of its many features is to send a page
when the TSM server quits responding.

Yes, we moved TSM off of a mainframe and onto a Sun/Solaris platform. We
are very pleased with the performance. If you have archive data then you
need to move data which will take a long time. For backups, we pointed
all clients away from the mainframe and to the new Sun server, so all new

Since you don't say what OS your server is running on I'll assume that it's

When you say script, are you talking about a TSM script or an OS script?
Sounds to me that you're doing a TSM script and, as such, the message is
completely valid. There is no mail command in TSM. In AIX I have client

Robin suggests periodic full backups by changing the mode.
A less intensive approach is to run selectives over parts of of your node every day,
so that over a week/fortnight/ month you will have backed up everything at least once.
