At that time, I also discovered that we were still running version 6.1.2.1 as shown by both logging in with DSMADMC and the output of the Q STATUS command.

TSM 6.1.3 Install
Hi Sam, I ran into the same issue when installing 6.1.3. I found that we had not removed the previous install files (for 6.1.2.1) and that even though I chose to replace them when expanding the new ones, the actual server files did not get replaced. Check the directory where you have extracted the Install files. initial dir/COI/PackageSteps/TSM_Server/FILES/TIV-TSMSRV-AIX/ or initial dir/COI/DeploymentSteps/TSM_Server/FILES/TIV-TSMSRV-AIX/ Check what's the version for file tivoli.tsm.server You will probably find 2 versions of this file, as I did and when you run the install, it reinstalls the 6.1.2.1 version. If you remove the COI and DE directories and the install.bin file and start again, you should be successful. Hope this helps, Pam Pagnotta Sr. Systems Engineer Energy Enterprise Solutions (EES), LLC Supporting IM-621.1, Enterprise Service Center East Office: 301-903-5508 Mobile: 301-326-7296 Email: pam.pagno...@hq.doe.gov Location: USA (EST/EDT)

At that time, I also discovered that we were still running version 6.1.2.1 as shown by both logging in with DSMADMC and the output of the Q STATUS command. At this point, I opened a problem with Tivoli support. They requested I rerun the upgrade and send them screen shots and logs of the process as well as a checksum output of the downloaded package. Again, all looked normal except that this time it ran much quicker and I received a message indicating DB2 9.5 had already been installed and would not be re-installed. And, again, the version ended up being 6.1.2.1. Two weeks ago, the problem was forwarded to a different support group who looked at it until Monday when I received a message saying they had decided the best way to get 6.1.3 installed at this point was to run the ./Uninstall_Tivoli_Storage_Manager program from the /opt/tivoli/tsm/_uninst directory and then run the upgrade again. Did that today with the same results with the additional problem of now having no B/A client on the machine and no DSMADMC. My question is; has anyone successfully installed 6.1.3? Does the output from a Q STATUS command show 6.1.3? Thanks Sam Sheppard San Diego Data Processing Corp. (858)-581-9668 Please consider the environment before printing this Email.

Keeping mgt classes in sync across multiple TSM servers
We are now up to 6 primary TSM instances (as opposed to special purpose instances). We try and keep the policy sets setup the same so we can move nodes between them as needed. This wasn't bad when there was only a couple instances, but it's getting more of a issue with 6 instances. For example, I just created a 3mo archive class on one instance . . . and did it 5 more times on other instances. (Yes . . the CLI and scripts are your friends!) q) If you keep the domains/policysets/mgtclasses in sync across multiple TSM instances, How do you do it? There isn't some feature to sync these across multiple instances?

Re: Turning Encryption Off/On
I configured dedicated Device classes and storage pools because of the following note in the Admin guide. When using encryption-capable drives with a supported encryption method, a new format will be used to write encrypted data to tapes. If data is written to volumes using the new format and if the volumes are then returned to scratch, they will contain labels that are only readable by encryption-enabled drives. To use these scratch volumes in a drive that is not enabled for encryption, either because the hardware is not capable of encryption or because the encryption method is set to NONE, you must relabel the volumes.

Re: Keeping mgt classes in sync across multiple TSM servers
As a matter of fact there is. TSM provides Enterprise Configuration functionality, where you define one system as a configuration server and subscribed other systems to profiles on the configuration server. We've been using it with TSM 5 and 6 servers without any trouble, and it's available free-of-charge after the regular TSM server licensing, at least for extended edition. You can find it documented in Chapter 21 of the Administrator's Guide: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tivihelp/v1r1/topic/com.ibm.itsml.doc/anrlgd55633.htm#entmgmt Richard Rhodes wrote: We are now up to 6 primary TSM instances (as opposed to special purpose instances).

Re: DataDomain VTL
I'll chime in here too. We are using it in a similar way to Steven (non-VTL, NFS mount to AIX/TSM server). We are getting about 10:1 compression overall and the offsite replication is a big plus. TSM says it backs up about 3TB/night, and after dedupe/compression we keep our offsite DD typically within 1 hour of being in sync with only a 40Mb link to our collocation facility.

Dsmserv Restore DB -k?
Hi Everyone, I'm doing a TSM Server Database recovery on a server right now where I have multiple Server Instance. When I run dsmserv.exe restore db from the directory where I have the correct dsmserv.opt and dsmserv.dsk, then some how does TSM try to restore my other instance that is also instance server1 in my tsm environment. When I normally start TSM I will type dsmserv.exe -k server2 but somehow doesn't dsmserv restore db working with the switch -k Does anyone have any other ideas how to restore on a dedicated server instance?

Re: [adsm] Re: Keeping mgt classes in sync across multiple TSM servers
Correct me if I'm wrong here, but I seem to recall that you could not replicate domain/policy/mgmtclass from a configuration manager if there were nodes assigned to the domain on the target (client) system. Which made it pretty inconvenient. I've used server-server export policy to achieve the same result, though. -Lloyd On Thu, 14 Jan 2010 11:41:10 -0800 Skylar Thompson skyl...@u.washington.edu wrote: As a matter of fact there is.

Re: Implementing LANFree data Movement - WIN Storage Agent Server Requirements
Yes, you'll certainly need Fibre Channel cards for your Storage Agent client - the whole point of LANfree data movement is that data is being moved (backed up/restored) does not traverse the LAN but instead moves directly between the host and the data storage device (be it tape or, more rarely, SANergy disk etc), thereby reducing LAN contention, removing potential LAN bottleneck and hopefully improving data throughput. You'll need a transport other than the LAN in order to achieve this. I've only ever implemented/seen this with fibre channel SAN for which FC adapter cards are required. Hope that helps, and I hope I've understood your question properly!

Re: [adsm] Re: Keeping mgt classes in sync across multiple TSM servers
That's true if there is a locally-managed domain of the same name on the node. If the domain is managed by the config server you can update without trouble. I've gotten around the problem like this though: 1. COPY DOMAIN foo localfoo 2. UPDATE NODE * WHEREDOM=foo DOM=localfoo 3. DELETE DOMAIN foo 3. (make your updates here and NOTIFY SUBSCRIBERS) 4. UPDATE NODE * WHEREDOM=localfoo DOM=foo 5. DELETE DOMAIN localfoo Lloyd Dieter wrote: Correct me if I'm wrong here, but I seem to recall that you could not replicate domain/policy/mgmtclass from a configuration manager if there were nodes assigned to the domain on the target (client) system.

Re: Move data from copystgpool volumes to a new copystgpool
The other option is to delete the old volumes a few at a time and let backup stgpool rebuild the copy pool as time permits. It might depend on how much tape time you can spare. The new pool is the easiest, but will require more tape drive time. 10tb may use one solution, 200TB may need another.

Re: Move data from copystgpool volumes to a new copystgpool
In my opinion creating new copy pool and use move data for old offsite volumes is the best option.

SV: Dsmserv Restore DB -k?
Hi Bill, That what I did and some how the first line that comes up was Using C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\Server1\dsmserv.opt ... ... Can not access D:\TSMServer1\DB1.dsm and so on. I solved last night by shutdown TSM Server 1 and rename the directory to Server1 to Server1_old and rename Server2 to Server1. When in to Server1 directory and ran the same command and now did it work fine and I could recovery the TSM Server. In mean wild did I rename Server1_old directory to Server2 and ran dsmserv -k server2 and the old server started fine during the recovery of the other server. When the recovery was finish I ran dsmserv .-k server1 and the server that I just recovered did start up successfully. Strange problem and I will probably continue talking to IBM Support in UK about this and not IBM India did I talk to last night European Time.

Hi Wanda, Thanks for the link and that was exact what I got. It ends up that I'll did switch Server1 directory with Server2 and now could I recovery the server. In TSM 5.5 Windows there is no supported switch such -k / -o or -i In TSM 6.1 can you use switch -u username -i for instance directory -o for option file -k for Server Instance I wish that does switchs also was on Version 5 at that time. The problem is now solved but still a mystery that I'm probably going to setup in our lab and try again.
