to process any customer's data based on TSM 4.2 on AIX 4.3. Probably in my case it makes more sense to buy a power3 architecture server to be more versatile. Gerald Wichmann Senior Systems Development Engineer Zantaz, Inc. 925.598.3099 (w) -Original Message- From: Ochs, Duane [mailto:[EMAIL

recovring a TSM server

Is it necessary to know the size of the original database and log for your TSM server when doing a recovery or is it sufficient to just make it as big or larger then the original before issuing the dsmserv recover db command? Gerald Wichmann Senior Systems Development Engineer Zantaz, Inc

How to tell which tapes a restore requires?

2002-11-26 Thread Gerald Wichmann
Let me ask my question a different way. If I do a restore, the server requests certain tapes to be mounted if they are offline and not physically in the library. Is there any way to determine ahead of time what those tapes are and put them in the library via a preview or something or do I always

: mode=selective (the default) and mode=incremental.. So in the case of linux, if you're using reiserfs I'm guessing you can't do an incremental image backup. You'd have to use ext3 or something similar. Gerald Wichmann Senior Systems Development Engineer Zantaz, Inc. 925.598.3099 (w) This e-mail

Re: TSM with library 1 drive

2002-09-25 Thread Gerald Wichmann
things you'd bring up if you were considering 2 drives vs 3.. or 4.. The NEED for 2 drives over one is mostly a throughput, redundancy, and availability issue. 2. nothing wrong with an autoloader.. works just like a tape library more or less.
