Retention of backup versions

2006-07-14 Thread Yiannakis Vakis
I'm sure this question has been asked many times but I want to be sure what is going on: A mgnt class has been defined so that 5 versions of a file are kept, with a retention of 30 days. A file that is changed daily is backed up for 5 consecutive days. The next backup is taken 3 months later.

Guys, Has anyone tried/done this before? If I was to use a tool such as EMC TimeFinder (in particular, using the EMC TimeFinder/SQL Server Integration Utility) to take a consistent database snapshot image (via the MS SQL VDI) of a SQL Server (2000) database (i.e. a 'recoverable database image'

My 2 cents worth. (Actual exchange rate will vary) Using TSM's method of data storage we have about 3 bytes of data on tape for every byte on a server. When we used a traditional backup method, we had almost 9 bytes of data on tape for every byte on a server. The available dates to recover

Don't know if you can apply the logs this way on MSSQL. It would work for SAP on Oracle databases, but there offline logs are used. You will get a problem with the expiration of the logs iif you don't make full backups to TSM. The transactionlogs will never be marked inactive. So they will stay

You can only get one data stream per filespace, no matter what the resourceutilization is set to. Take a look at Virtualmountpoint. If your file system has an appropriate directory structure, and can handle the additional IO, this will answer your need.- Orville L. Lantto Glasshouse

I'm in the process of moving systems to a new tsm server and have seen an odd behavior I would expect to be related to a misconfigured dsm.opt file, or possible a service that was not reset after the move maybe? A few nodes that have already been migrated have data on the old tsm server from last
