Yup. I haven't had this problem with Win2K8 yet, but had it all the time on Win2K3. And we do exactly as Karel said, use a presched .cmd file to dump the system state to a flat file, then add DOMAIN -systemstate to the dsm.opt file so TSM won't call VSS to do the system state backup. Only problem

Re: deduplication status

39 is actually not a great number; it means you are getting less than 2 for 1 dedup. Unless you have backups running hard 24 hours a day, those dedup processes should finish. When you do Q PROC, if the processes have any work to do, they show as ACTIVE, if not they show IDLE. I'd think that at

Re: TSM/AC and CommandLine

Hi Bill, The AC only supports IE7 and IE8. Some parts of it work with IE9, and some don't. Try this: Press PF12 That brings up the IE9 debug window Change both Browser and Document mode to IE8 emulation; if that doesn't' work try IE7 emulation. (On some machines I get *faster* response with IE8 e

Re: Fwd: [ADSM-L] Lun versus logical volume for DB volumes

DB2 doesn't know whether it's an actual LUN or not. It only sees the filesystem. Whether you use dedicated LUNs is a performance question. On XIV type disk where I/O is striped every which way and everything is spinning all the time, it's a whole different question than if you put 8 filesystems

Re: Question about NDMP and TSM.

Interesting point about NDMP and dedup. Do you have any experience with it? What kind of dedup ratios did you see? -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Steven Harris Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2014 9:48 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subj

Hi Eric - Was it a "real" write error like: ANR8302E I/O error on drive DRIVE1 (mt0.0.0.5) with -blah- blah - ASC=FF, ASCQ= FF, -glub - Or an "unexpected" error like an ANRD? TSM "believes" that VTL drive is a real tape drive. And like you, I would expect a legitimate error to res

That will work. But, if they really want *all* non-pst files bound to the new mgmt. class, just change the copy group/retention settings for the default mgmt. class. Then all you need is: include ?:\...\*.pst meager-mc That would have a slight advantage, in that files that are inactive becaus

Re: 3584 upgrade: 3592-E05 to 3592-E07

I agree. As long as there are lots of JC tapes on the scratch list, I believe the default algorithm is to round-robin the scratch list, so the old tapes that free up will likely be at the bottom of the scratch list and will likely not get used before you check them out. And I like the idea of i
