I haven't paid much attention to the CPU/Memory usage. There are only 5-really active and 24-semi active clients on this box. The biggest issue is the DB load since there are over 100M objects for the 5-active clients. I think the recommendation for memory is at least 8GB. I just received 2-new

I've got a Win2K3 TSM server on 6.1.3.1. Backup load is 2-3 TB per day, 160 daily client schedules, mostly Windows , Linux, and SQL.. DB is ~200GB, 1 full per day works fine. Nothing odd about DB backups on this platform IFF you have ALLOWREORGTABLE NO in dsmserv.opt, which is a workaround for an

The TSM logfiles are indeed 500GB in size, as you noticed. Are there more than 20? All in you activelog directory? Is this a separate, dedicated, filesystem, as recommended? You can increase the size of the active log by changing the activelogsize parameter in your dsmserv.opt, but I doubt that

Hi, this is a TSM defect in this version. The only way to reduce this space is doing 2 DB Backups. In any case, I suggest you upgrade to 6.1.3.2 Regards, Fran - Mensaje original De: Gibin Para: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Enviado: lun,5 abril, 2010 06:37 Asunto: TSM Active Log --- Trou
