"Package deal" ... I'm going to use that. :) You are correct. Objects that are expired but not yet deleted won't be visible and therefore can't be selected for restore. The same concepts apply to normal backup files. For example, the behavior of NDMP backup versions is identical to that of ada

This matches what I see in our environment - q nasbackup doesn't show the full backup that the differentials depend upon, once the full backup ages out. We have successfully restored volumes using a recent differential with its older associated full backup so it does work. However, your use of

I'm not directly familiar with the NDMP backup expiration scenario, but what you're describing makes sense to me. If the full is older than what the copy group is set to, then it seems reasonable that you can only restore, in it's own right, the backups which have not yet been expired - ie. a diff

A full backup that has a dependent differential can be expired, but will not be deleted. This means that a full backup that is beyond the retention criteria will not be visible, but will be available for restoring differentials. As others have noted, fulls and differentials are managed by the sam

Hi, I had such a kind of problem on a fresh install of TSM 6.2.3 (on Linux) : ANR0171I dbiconn.c(1952): Error detected on 0:1, database in evaluation mode. When doing the dsmserv format in order to create the DB, the db2sysc tried to make a lookup to the LDAP server for the instance owner. As t

I'm thinking since they are indeed DIFFs not incrementals, I'll end up with one Full and one Diff most months, and just a Full on the month I do a full. David -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Prather, Wanda Sent: Wednesday, Febr

Yes, but I'm still looking for the answer to your original question. If the diffs are tied to the fulls as a set/same object, doesn't that mean if you do one full and then do diffs for 6 months, that you end up with 6 months of diffs in storage, no matter what the retextra/retonly setting?

I'm glad David asked this question, because I have the same one, as I have been digging around in the backups table trying to figure out what goes on. The question is, if retextra is 15 and retonly is 15, and you take one full NDMP backup followed by 20 diffs, does anything roll off? How many fu

Hi, The Full Backup and Inc Backup are the same object for TSM. That mean if you backup the Full Backup with Managment Class A then backup Incremental with MG Class B, TSM will then change the FULL backup to MG Class B. Best Regards Christian Svensson Cell: +46-70-325 1577 E-mail: christian.sve
