Hi all, After going through some logs of W2k3 servers, I noticed that the secedit.dbin c:\windows\security\database does not get backed up because it is in use. I have tried finding out if I need to backup this file, and some sources say it is a crucial file, and other simply exclude this from bac

TSM Server v5.4.1.2

2007-09-28 Thread Gretchen L. Thiele
I notice that there are 5.4.1.2 server versions on the ftp site this morning, but nothing in the README that points to the problems that have been fixed. Is this just a repackaging of 5.4.1.1 in light of the security announcement earlier this week? Also, as I moved from 5.4.0.x to 5.4.1.x on my A

Postschedulecmd exiting with non-zero return code should fail backup schedule

2007-09-28 Thread Schneider, John
Greetings, We are just testing using pre and post schedule commands on our AIX systems (TSM client 5.3.4.0, and TSM 5.3.4.2 server) and having a problem. We want a non-zero return code from either the pre- and post- scripts to show up the backup as a failure. According to the manual, a non-zero r

If POSTSCHEDULECMD fails, the schedule shows up as COMPLETED with RC 8, not FAILED. In general (excepting schedules with ACTION=COMMAND) RCs 0, 4, and 8 are considered "Completed" (successful), and RC 12 is "Failed" (failed). Chapter 7 in the client manual describes RC 8 thus: "The operation comp

I noticed that about reclamations. It's a double whammy because it now stops reclamation when you set it back to 100% so if you don't have a big enough reclamation window you end up with alot of tapes at 80-90% reclamation. Mark Remeta -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [m

Chip, I hope I am not proven ignorant in this case, but I don't think there is a way to update the slot count without deleting the drives/path/library, and then redefining them. The reason is that when the library path is first defined is when TSM queries the library device and receives ba
