Re: TDp and retention settings question

You state Data Protection for SQL is the "tdp" you are referring to. Data Protection for SQL backups are automatically managed. You do not need to manually manage them. If you run a full backup, it will expire all previous full, log, and differential backups. At that point, according to your settin

Anyone out there solved how to install the lin_tape padckage on redhat enterprise linux 6? Apparently, "rebuild" is not supported in their implementation of rpm. I've been looking at the rpm man page, but the light hasn't come on yet. Any pointers at this time would be helpful. Gary Lee Senior

reclamation question

2011-04-11 Thread Tyree, David
We have three storage pools, the primary pool is a devtype FILE and the two copy pools are devtype LTO3. The offsite copy pools gets transferred offsite via DRM. Whenever I run a reclamation on the offsite copy pool the system grabs a scratch tape and then copies

About the only way I can think of to do this is to mark the onsite copy pool volumes as unavailable. This would force data to be pulled from the primary file pool. The reason it does this for the offsite pool, is that offsite volumes are presumed to be unavailable, thus data must be pulled fro

Or just mark them offsite, even though they are still in the library. You could create a script that does "update vol * wherestgpool=onsitecopy access=offsite" before you start reclamation, then reverse it when reclamation finishes. W -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [ma

As the previous 2 mentioned, if the tape is available, TSM will use it. If it's offsite, TSM will try to collect the data from primary volumes. So your issue is that the copypool tapes are actually available. It's kinda weird you get them reclaimed though, they should have been moved offsite lon

A more draconian method (not recommended) is to perform a Delete Volume for the copy storage pool volumes you would reclaim, where their former content would be freshly written to tape in the next Backup Stgpool. That leaves you with one less copy of the data, of course, so not the best approac

This is close to what we do, but we add "stat=full" to narrow it down better. At 01:38 PM 4/11/2011, Prather, Wanda wrote: >Or just mark them offsite, even though they are still in the library. >You could create a script that does "update vol * wherestgpool=onsitecopy >access=offsite" before you

BACKUP DB DB08C000 lvmread.c(1245): Memory allocation failed: object Resync read page buffer, size 4096

I ran into an odd issue, and it took me a while to figure out the cause. I'm posting this because I found very few hits about lvmread.c, and none matched. Most gave info about memory consumption, which is no factor here. If you have to replace the OS on your TSM server, and you're not using AD,
