Hi all,
We have some work currently underway to try and get the SharePoint TDP for
TSM (aka DocAve) installed and working. We've downloaded and installed
v6.1.4 from Passport Advantage and have been able to configure and run
successful backups.
However on testing the restore process, it seems tha
Hi,
I was hope to find some light here at the forum.
I have a Windows Server 2003 SP2 with a MS SQL Server 2005 Enterprise installed.
I have installed TSM BA Client 6.2.3.0 and TSM for MSSQL 5.5.5.1 and the TSM
Server version is 6.2.3.0
But when I try to run a backup of our MS SQL Server via GUI
A while back I did some searching in to NFS file pool for LanFree storge
agents. I figured that since Sanergy was using NFS for setup but sending
data across FC, that TSM should have to support NFS directly. I found a
comment in the TSM manuals (v5.5) that IBM does not support NFS for

Hi Kirk,
Usually the source of this oh-so-informative error message has to do with the
widespread elevation of rights for the Agent user. You might try logging into
the destination db as the account and see if you can create a database.

There is no function/command set in TSM to merge data from two different nodes.
You can cheat and do it with export/import (convenient you are planning an
export anyway).
You will have to do it when there are no sessions active to either node:
Here are the steps; if you want the data to end up be

Not really sure where the general idea that a VTL will limit the number of

I'm not familiar with Data Domain, but generally speaking, the number of
virtual tape drives configured within a VTL is usually thousands. Not sure why
you'd want that many though, I always prefer

Interesting. Every VTL based solution, including data domain, that I looked at
had limits on the amount of drives that could be emulated which were nowhere
near a hundred let alone a thousand. Perhaps it's time to revisit this.
The license is a data domain fee, and a hefty one at that.

Sorry, By not supported I meant for lan-free. Every bit of documents
I've read only refer to using a physical or virtual tape library.

The DD has a limit on the number of tape drives that can be configured and
used.
The quote below is from the DD Admin Guide (v4.9):
" Drives?From 1 to 256 tape drives are supported, depending on the
Data Domain model. The DD4xx, DD510 and DD530 systems can
have a maximum of 64 drives. All
When I looked into this subject I found that lanfree supports:
- vtl
- physical tape
- file devices on GPFS (a san filesystem)
- file devices via Sanergy (nfs but with data being sent over fibre
channel)
- I found a specific comment that straight NFS for sharing File devices is
not supported by IBM
I didn't think Sanergy was still supported?

By LANFree, you mean LAN Free to disk?
last time I looked at it, Sanergy was NFS for UNIX hosts, and CIFS for
Windows. (So if you have both platforms in your environment, you needed
two setups.)
If you used NFS for the front-end semantics, you still had some
range-based locking for the shared dis

Actually I have more customers using Data Domains without the VTL license than
with it.
With a Windows TSM server, you can just write to it via TCP/IP using a CIFS
share(NFS mount with an AIX TSM server).
If you have sufficient TCP/IP bandwidth for your load, no fibre connections
needed.
