Hi Josh, [...] So, I log in as the instance user, run cmd.exe, go to my instance directory, and run dsmserv.exe (it's in my path). A separate console window pops up, and immediately closes. Redirecting doesn't put anything in the file. If I look closely, I see some output in the fraction of a s

I don't think you told us whether this is a WAN connection or GIGE? 4G is quite a relatively small file for TSM to handle, so looks like connection issues. 1) Check to see if there is a firewall between your server and the client. If so you will need to have the firewall guy increase the firew

Were you hoping for change in 6.3 because you've submitted an enhancement request and were led to believe it would happen "soon"? Or were you just figuring that "someone else" has probably requested this enhancement already? Nick On Jul 23, 2012, at 5:03 PM, Kevin Kettner wrote: > Does anyon

Strong TSM Passwords?

2012-07-23 Thread Kevin Kettner
Does anyone know if IBM is ever going to expand the character set accepted for TSM passwords? I was hoping that would happen in TSM 6.3, but apparently it still has the same password rules as it has for as long as I can remember: http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/tsminfo/v6r3/topic/com.ibm.itsm.c

Re: TSM: Backing Up Large Files

2012-07-23 Thread Rafael Ortega
It is my personal experience that a backup of a single very large file that takes too long (hours) will pin the log and not let go until either the file finishes copying or the backup is cancelled. Problem is once the log goes past 81% it starts delaying transactions and everything gets worse. I

Rainer - Your posting doesn't say exactly how you downloaded the bin file. Problems using software downloaded with FTP are commonly due to the download not having been performed in Binary mode. Given that the bin file has a Feb 28 date, I would expect it to be in good condition (but nothing i
