2003-03-07 Thread Adam J. Boyer
Thank you for your response, Richard. The reason I believe there is a compelling reason is that before this 5 million file backup, our database was about 43 GB. When the backup finished, the database was about 62 GB. After deleting around 4 million files, the database is still around 60 GB. Th

2003-03-06 Thread Adam J. Boyer
Hi TSM Gurus, Due to some misunderstanding, an unnecessary 5 million files was backed up, bloating our database by about 15 GB. I have since commenced deleting that filespace, but it looks like the delete is not reducing the database size nearly enough. So I am planning to do an unload/reload, a

If you can, I would uninstall 4.2.1, then reinstall 4.1.0. Then try the database restore. Then upgrade to 4.2.1. I don't know if that would help, but it would eliminate the version difference as a cause of the problem. adam Adam Boyer Communications Analyst Board of Governors of the Federa

Re: TSM move off of mainframe????

2002-09-10 Thread Adam J. Boyer
Yes, we moved TSM off of a mainframe and onto a Sun/Solaris platform. We are very pleased with the performance. If you have archive data then you need to "move data" which will take a long time. For backups, we pointed all clients away from the mainframe and to the new Sun server, so all new ba

One other question: Did your IBM CE do any work on the library recently? In our case, we used rs232 to talk to the LM during our evaluation. Then when we bought the 3494, the CE came in, made some changes and rs232 stopped working. It turns out that one of the changes included swapping out the

I wanted to limit the number of people who can fire up the TSM GUI on some NT boxes and start restoring files. I thought the best way to do this was to set the passwordaccess option to 'prompt', and then give the password to only a select few. My only concern is that this may affect scheduled op
