I've just been notified that Netapp sales people will pay us a visit
in about a week from now and try to talk us into buying their backup
solutions. What tricky questions should I be asking them? I don't
exactly know what products they will be talking about, but I guess it
will be about their VTL
In tsm 6.1, the volhist and devconf files are mandatory in database
restore actions, in tsm 5 you indeed had access to dsmserv display
dbb. Even better, at least on Linux it's impossible to make database
backup if you haven't configured devconf and volhist backup files.

I agree with Bill.
A few years ago I had to look at saving health data. Some of this was
mandated to be kept literally forever as it fell under the State's Archive
Act, more had to be kept for 70 years. Also surprisingly, some was not to
be kept at all once its "operational" purpose had expired,
I assume you meant a database backup volume. For TSM 6.1, I do not know of
any way to display the contents of a database backup volume as has existed
in pre-TSM 6.1 (see the TSM 5.5 Admin Ref book under "Server Utilities").
Hence the comments in the documentation that the volume history is crucial
Hi Everyone,
I have a database file 12Gb in size and it's stored on the hard disk as
devclass file. I want to have a look at it's content but the command "q

content of a database? Please help!

I truly doubt that archiving drives, servers and tapes for 25 years each
time the technology updates will let you read the tapes because the
drive and server will probably not even boot up and run.
You will have to update the data every two LTO cycles or so. LTO will

Your point is well-taken. It is easy to say that LTO4 media will be
good for 30 years, but it would be crazy to put LTO4 tapes in a vault
and, even under perfect storage conditions, expect to just pull them out
and read them.
Will anybody have LTO4 drives then? No way. Even if you kept a LTO4

I do agree, having the tapedrives around _could_ be important. I know
of at least one environment that was able to produce the media that
stores the data, but no drives. But then again, they only had to
retain the data, not the infra to access it.

Hi there,
Just wanne point out that even if you do have your data on tape you need to be
able to restore it with possibly the drive you did write it and of course
compatible software.
Hardware maintenance cost would be a killer and might force you to migrate data
to new media in 10 years from
To me the problem is having the drives around and more importantly, the
interfaces to the drives. I think that probably the best bet is to plan on
"archiving" a TSM server with a drive along with the media periodically. Snap
off the last database backup, restore it on the to be archived server
Does anyone have 25 year old tape media or tape drives around?
Will you stil be able to use LTOx media in 25 years?

Rick,
If your hostnames are unique in of themselves, you can leave the nodename out
of the dsm.opt file. TSM will use the hostname for the tsm nodename.
If you have clients with the name of xyz.abc.com and xyz.qxr.com then you would
have a problem with this scheme.
