Re: Backup of large server (15+ Million objects)

Bill, I have a case where I want to isolate a particular directory path from the remainder of the file server. That isolated path had been permanently archived but I've since switched to backupsets. But that directory path is part of a file server with 1.7 million files. This is how I isolated

Multiple SQL Instances through the TDP

Guys and gals, I have a Windows 2003 server running multiple instances of MSSQL (for some reason - I am not the DBA). I have configured a single MSSQL server backup through a TDP before, but never multiple instances. Has anyone done this before and can offer a hand? I am assuming I need a new set

Re: 15,000,000 + files on one directory backup

Also, with my suggestion you don't need to have 10 different nodes. You can have one node. With resource utilization of 10 I believe you will have up to 4 producer and 4 consumer threads. It's been a while since I saw the doc on that exact setting to thread count. If you want more you can set

Re: 15,000,000 + files on one directory backup

Richard, the backup does not take long because of the communication with the TSM server. It is the reading of the MFT (Master File Table) on the client itself that takes time. Each drive has its own MFT. Also more importantly TSM will only start one producer thread per logical drive. So if the

Fw: 'Waiting for access to input volume..."

TSM is doing exactly what it says - waiting for access to that volume. I've seen it a lot where clients are writing directly to tape for database logsweeps, for migration processes, and reclamation. You should try to have your server as idle as possible during the copypool processing. Nick Cassi

Re: 15,000,000 + files on one directory backup

If this is on Win2k, did you try JOURNAL-based backup? It should be pretty fast, as then the client will collect all the names of files, that have changed since the last backup. No major data transfer with TSM DB. Install the feature, run incremental twice. The second (and all next) should be fast.

Re: 15,000,000 + files on one directory backup

You create 10 separate nodes, one for each mountpoint (drive). You can then run 10 separate backup threads; each thread has (in theory) 1/10th as many files to filter through before a backup begins. It's done that way a lot in such cases. -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) IBM Certified Advanc

Re: 15,000,000 + files on one directory backup

Yes, but the long backup time is because of the time it takes the TSM client to query the TSM database for backup file candidates and not due to the actual movement of files from the client to the TSM server. So how pulling from 10 separate drives increase the query speed. For instance it takes h

Re: 15,000,000 + files on one directory backup

No, because you're pulling data off of 10 separate physical drives. It's likely to be significantly faster. -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) IBM Certified Advanced Deployment Professional Tivoli Storage Management Solutions 2005 IBM Certified Advanced Technical Expert (CATE) AIX Office 262.

Re: 15,000,000 + files on one directory backup

Wouldn't the backup take close to the same amount of time has using one mount point. Because the TSM client on that one server still had to go through 15 million files whether its doing it in one session or 10 sessions. I am experiencing the same problem of an imaging system. I am trying to go t

15,000,000 + files on one directory backup

I replied to the list about using windows mount points. A reply was sent back about it being the opposit of what they wanted. Well I had this thought. If you have an imaging system (or any other application) that can only use one drive letter why not use mount points for that drive. Have a serv

You are aware of the fact that the redirect will go to the local machine you're sitting on? So if you're on a Windows box, redirecting to a path with '/' in it will fail? If so, do you have write authority to the specified path? Have you tried redirecting to another location? Best Regards Dan

Hi Bill No, you dont have to complete a selective backup. There is two scenarios: 1. You install a new client and activate the journal service. The first backup of the machine will be a complete backup(though its incremental, it will be treated as a full backup). 2. You install the journal se
