Re: 8.1 Client Backup/Archive Backup/Archive discontinued in Virtual Environment??

You can still use command line. You just need to install the BA Client from the Spectrum Protect for VE package. Choose "Advanced Installation" and then choose "Install the data mover feature only". Art Roy IBM Systems Storage Software Advanced Technology (SWAT) Unleash IBM (SWAT Request)

Best Practices/Best Performance SP/TSM B/A Client Settings ?

I've looked at the IBM Blueprint documents but may have missed what I was looking for - the Best Practices for Best Performance for TSM B/A client settings.As we move from 6.4 to 7.x or 8.x clients before the 6.4 EOL, we are looking to test with the current client settings optimized for

Re: 8.1 Client Backup/Archive Backup/Archive discontinued in Virtual Environment??

Does this apply to command line VE restores as well? At DR, we typically just install a BA client and we have a script to perform mass VE restores from within it. Does this mean it would require the full VE install? -steve -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager

Re: digging deeper with VE tagging support possible?

Hi Stefan, In that case, you should open a PMR since we don't want to get into a debugging session on ADSM-L. Del "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" wrote on 03/15/2017 11:24:17 AM: > From: Stefan Folkerts

Re: digging deeper with VE tagging support possible?

That is good to know Stefan, it makes sense to so thank you! I used the schedule again and it returns the same ANS9377E. And Del, I am editing the correct .opt file, i made a typo and restarted the dm cad but that gave an error, fixed the typo and it worked again so I know it's working and the

Re: digging deeper with VE tagging support possible?

Hello Stefan, these tags are to configure backup schedules. Not to configure "ad hoc" backups via "dsmc backup vm". If you want to use tags, please set up your scheduler service to execute the backups. When you look at your command below it contains the domain statement for using tags:

Re: digging deeper with VE tagging support possible?

Hi Stefan, There is nothing obvious here except that you mention 'dsm.opt'. Not sure if this is just a general name for the opt file but the datamover opt file generally includes the datamover name. Is it possible that the dsm.opt file that you changed is not the one being used by the

digging deeper with VE tagging support possible?

Re: TSM 8.1 Support for Solaris??

http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21243309#Solaris%20SPARC It means that the Backup/Archive client for Solaris SPARC is not shipped starting with Spectrum Protect 8.1. The API is still available for the TDPs that use it and you can still use the Backup/Archive 7.1 client for

Re: 8.1 Client Backup/Archive Backup/Archive discontinued in Virtual Environment??

What this means is that you can no longer just install the Backup/Archive client and run these commands. You have to have the license for Spectrum Protect for VE in order to execute VM backup and restore operations. Del "ADSM: Dist Stor

Antwort: Re: [ADSM-L] 8.1 Client Backup/Archive Backup/Archive discontinued in Virtual Environment??

Hi, In earlier versions of backup/archive Clients you've been able to perform full backup operations of VM Guests using just the backup/archive client installed (without the neccessity to have a TDP for VE license). This functionality has been dropped in backup/archive client 8.1. Now you

Re: 8.1 Client Backup/Archive Backup/Archive discontinued in Virtual Environment??

Hans, If you can run "dsmc backup vm ..." you have not upgraded the client. You are still on 7.x If you try to run the command on a client version 8.1 (without ISP4VE) you will get: ANS2731E The BACKUP VM command failed because the Data Protection for VMware license file does not exist
