Hi Sam,
I have successful run a couple of upgrades from 6.1.0.0 to 6.1.3 and also from 
6.1.2.1 to 6.1.3.
But I have only been upgrading on Linux Servers and not AIX.

Ämne: TSM 6.1.3 Install

We have been running TSM server 6.1.2.1 on AIX 6.1 for a couple of
months and needed to upgrade to 6.1.3 for the fix for a severe NDMP/TOC
performance problem.

Downloaded the 6.1.3 package, ran the upgrade procedure and lo and
behold, the performance problem was no better. 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?

Hi Mario,
The error code you get has nothing to do between the client code level and the 
server code level.
Someone have access the TSM Client Node and backup data with a never version of 
TSM Client then 5.5.1.0

Upgrade your TSM Client to a never version such 5.5.4.0.
You can download the latest TSM Client version from

TSM 6.1.3 Install

2010-01-14 Thread Pagnotta, Pam
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,

A primary disk storage pool is almost always random DISK type.  A copy storage

There is automatic synchronization from primary to copy storage pool where 
Simultaneous Write is configured, as described in the Admin Guide manual.

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?

This is for TSM-managed encryption (the library is set to
application-managed).
You only need 1 set of scratch tapes.

One library, two storage pools, two devclasses, one encrypted, one not.
Same pool of scratch tapes.

When an encrypted tape goes scratch and comes back from the vault, it can be
reused non-encrypted.
(I think that is because the label isn't encrypted, just the data.)
TSM DB backups are never encrypted, either.

Works fine.  Beauty of TSM-managed encryption; easy peasy.  Set it and
forget it.

 I don't think you can have two devices classes (one with and one without

 a scratch tape labeled within an encrypted deviceclass configuration because
 the first thing it does is check the label, that's encrypted so label
 doesn't match eject - set to private, next volume please...etc etc.

 Is your encryption application-managed (controlled by TSM) or

 If application managed, IBM is correct, you just need a different devclass

 new

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:

Hi Gary,

The node is not unusedit is associated with schedules and suchcan I 
assing a 2nd name to the Node through dsm.opt or dsm.sys?

Or...maybe install another instance of the TSM Client, with different dsm.sys

Re: DataDomain VTL

2010-01-14 Thread Ben Bullock
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.

All

Just to chip in here.

We have 3 DDR's (2 at remote sites and one in a main DC)  and are seeing 
4.4:1 compression.  That's with a reasonable mix of data and no client 
side compression.

Whilst dedupe isn't superb, but as we know it's generally lower with TSM 
anyway, a big advantage is DDR to DDR offsite replication for DR.  Our 
nightly backup gets about 10:1 dedupe and is small enough to offsite 
without massive network connectivity.

We also use NFS for TSM connectivity, which seems to work very well.

Dsmserv Restore DB -k?

I'm doing a TSM Server Database recovery on a server right now where I have

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: Implementing LANFree data Movement - WIN Storage Agent Server Requirements

2010-01-14 Thread David McClelland
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!

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

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.

SV: Dsmserv Restore DB -k?

2010-01-14 Thread Christian Svensson
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.

Best Regards
Christian Svensson

Christian,

I do this frequently and have no problem when I cd to the server2 directory and 
run the following:

..\server\dsmserv -k server2 restore db todate=today

During the restore dsmserv uses the directory you're in to create registry 
entries for the paths to the instance.

 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?

SV: Dsmserv Restore DB -k?

2010-01-14 Thread Christian Svensson
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.

Best Regards
Christian Svensson
