Well, I can't say I'm an "expert" on either, but having done both, I
will say this:
sysback only backs up rootvg, AFAIK. Plus, it's better if files are
not changing when it happens, so we always boot into maintenance mode
to do it (shutdown -m). It doesn't do incremental backups.

Not sure what you mean by "extended High performance Tapes" but we
get bulk orders of AIT tapes from ISSI for our SpectraLogic Gator.

As I understand it, step 5 (label libv) automatically checks in the
new tapes as scratch, thus making step 6 unnecessary?

We just went from TSM Server 4.1.3 to 5.1.1.6
You do not need to stop at 4.2 along the way.
Here's the conceptual overview of what we did -- obviously, tailor it
for your environment:
1) stop TSM from doing anything (disable sessions, nomigrrecl, disablesched)
2) delete SYSTEM OBJECT (helps spee

What is the exact syntax for auditdb? I've seen you mention it twice
now. I'm on 4.1.3 server (migrating to 5.1.1.6 tomorrow!) and don't
see this mentioned anywhere. This is part of 4.2 and later?

I have 12 36-GB drives available for spool.
Based on recommendations made to this list earlier this year, I went
with 12 mirrored disk spools of 16 GB each (keep in mind disk
overhead).
As I understood it, the issue was you want many spools so that, as
Allen mentioned, you can have many threads

If you're taking a monthly archive, then why would you need a yearly

I'm not understanding the difference.

Is there a way to start TSM server without it doing anything? Kinda
like a "single-user mode"? Sometimes, I like to run an audit after
rebooting TSM and the tape library, but as soon as I start TSM, it
begins to do various things like space reclamation etc.
I *could* remember to disable sessions
Does anyone have any ideas on the following errors that showed up in our TSM
activity log? We have TSM 4.1.3 server running on AIX 4.3.3ML9, connected to
a SpectraLogic HVD 64000/Gator (with Sony SDX-500C drives).
We've sent the sense code info to Tivoli as well as SpectraLogic, but they
point at

I have a few annoyances with Tivoli -- not many, as it's a great
product, just a handful.
1) We have TSM 4.1.3 server connected to SpectraLogic Gator/64000.
Despite what Tivoli says on their website, the element number of Slot 1
in the library is not 1, but 30! This is very annoying! If I do a "q
I have two virtual libraries in my automated tape library
(SpectraLogic 64000/Gator).
I can define two libraries, two tape device classes, etc., etc., in TSM 4.1.3
I can even define two "backuppool" disk spools, one for each library.
What I can't seem to figure out is how to get data backed up t
Something's wrong.
Normally, when one of the storagepools runs out of filling tapes, and
an operation is run that requires a filling tape, TSM will usually
grab a scratch volume and use it.
It is not doing that anymore for any of our storage pools. We have to
manually define a scratch volume to

I have two questions about using TSM 4.1.3 with the SpectraLogic
Gator/64000. Our Gator currently has 75 slots designated to a
"virtual library" (call it LIB1), two drives, and shares the
Entry/Exit port which has 30 slots.
1) I can't seem to figure out how to checkin library volumes. On our

Question: Are you using Intermapper to poll the HTTP port on your TSM server?
We used to, and it crashed every three days because those "ghost"
HTTP admin sessions were always hanging around. We stopped
Intermapper polling, and all our crashes went away!!!

Thanks for the responses about the HTTP sessions. I guess it is quite
a widespread problem. Unfortunately, limiting ourselves to certain
browsers (even IE5.5) is not an option for us. I guess we'll live
with it for now.
But I did have another inquiry. Does anyone else regularly reboot

Hi, we just upgraded to TSM 4.1.3.0 from ADSM 3.1.2.50. When I do a
