I am not sure how you try to delete thoose volumes, but.
This should work.
Create a OS script with multiple lines like:
Dsmadsmc -id=x -password=y del vol xyz discarddata=yes wait=y
Dsmadsmc -id=x -password=y del vol zyx discarddata=yes wait=y
Etc.
If you create a script in TSM or run multiple

We are having a similar problem, with LTO4's in a Scalar500 - scratch tapes

What about the client who thinks TSM backups up the same file every
night even though it's not been updated. Or who want's a restore on a
(specific) file from 6 months ago on a specific date even though that
file has been updated 18 times and doesn't understand the a Retention

Hi All,
Hopefully Andy or someone else from IBM can jump in here and answer
if there are any plans in the works to add support for installing and
running TSM on a Solaris 10 container.
Currently, we are mainly backing up the container's data from the global
zone. I think the main issues at
Tim,
Another good one is de-duplication. Clients and venders alike believe
de-deduplication will yield some high level of size reduction with TSM.
TSM by design doesn't de-duplicate with the same results as other backup
environments.

Hello John,
Could you please provide us with more details : TSM server level, OS it's

Thanks for the replies. We currently have encryption turned off and have

The various cited misunderstandings with end users point out the need
for a well written service contract upon entering into a service
arrangement with an area of your organization. Such a contract needs

I feel your pain. We had the same problem and had to do this - over a
long holiday.the non-full audit ran 4-days when the DB was only 80GB.
Now up to 160GB. I would not want to perform a full audit at this point.
If you or your bosses insist on a Grandfather-father-son backup rotation,
buy a product designed for it, not TSM.

Hi guy's,
I am running into a strange but pretty serieus problem at one of our
customers.
Capacity is at the limit and I need to fix this issue fast but am at a
los at the moment..
There were some wrong policy domains settings that were used to backup
Oracle TDP data.
I have fixed this issue and
How about this. Being in an organization that brought in another system,
netbackup, it has confused things to no end. There are a lot of things I could
say but typing on a blackberry prevents that, and keeps my blood pressure down.
So my main comment is the grass isn't always greener just
As a starting point
First check to make sure the TSM node for your Oracle backups have
backdel=yes...in the past Oracle/RMAN would remove the backups from the
RMAN catalog prior to checking to see if the TSM delete operation was
actually successful...I believe Oracle has changed this behavior

hello,
is there a manual available how to backup windows 2008 server?
i tried out tsm client 5.5.0.4 with vss/tsmlvsa, both with no success.

Compare date -u output on a few systems to be sure your system clock isn't
incorrectly set.
Often, wall time looks correct, even when the offset and system clock are wrong.

This volume is probably the victim of a TSM database inconsistency,
where an AUDit Volume will likely be needed to clear its problem.
Richard Sims
If your storage pool: TPCE_BCK_DATA_COPY has Delay Period for Volume
Reuse: set to a value greater than zero (say 2 days), you will have to
wait for 2 days until that volume is deleted by TSM, as per your

If I recall correctly there is a TSM system setting that relates to the
memory available on the server, and you can check and adjust this
setting to improve performance of your TSM server.
Can anyone remind me which setting it is?

Are you thinking of BUFPOOLSIZE and
Currently the BUFPOOLSIZE is set to:
