Re: I keep getting lan-free backup errors, but we have migrated away from lanfree backups
Hi Marc, Thank you for your reply. 1 - the wrong stanza was edited There was only one stanza using lanfree on the host, the other (b/a backup) always used lan-based backups, I checked that at least 3 times and my colleague looked over my shoulder because I felt like I was going a bit crazy. ;-) 2 - DSM_DIR is set and the wrong dsm.sys file is edited I searched the entire machine, al dsm.sys files are links to the same file that was edited, all have * in front of all lanfree components. 3 - there's another machine also configured to use that nodename This appears to be it because the fqdn I see in the messages resolved to a different server that I know nothing about. Maybe they have something standby that is connecting using the same nodename. The other server also has an IP that's not on the server that I migrated. :-) Thanks for this, I was a bit stuck thinking it had to come from the same machine! Sometimes you just need a little nudge in the right direction, so thanks again.

Re: I keep getting lan-free backup errors, but we have migrated away from lanfree backups
Hi Stefan, It's likely one of those things: 1 - the wrong stanza was edited 2 - DSM_DIR is set and the wrong dsm.sys file is edited 3 - there's another machine also configured to use that nodename 4 - there's more than one dsmcad and the wrong one was restarted. You should be able to see the IP in the activity log when the session is established, that will at least help you narrow down which machine it's coming from. 5 - if enablelanfree is specified more than once in a stanza, the last reference to it will be the one taking effect. - Thanks, Marc...

Re: TSM for VE password problem only when LANFREE enabled??
That sounds kinda like the problem but I am already running TSM Storage Agent 6.3.3.2 (the fix is to use SA 6.3 or greater). Here are the versions I currently have installed: TSM Storage Agent 6.3.3.2 TSM for VE 7.1.1.0 TSM Client 7.1.1.0 Do you think upgrading any of these would help?

Re: 5.5 LANfree together with a 7.1 server
maybe you should write a note to management that you cannot support such seriously outdated client operating systems, that you will not compromise the operation by staying downlevel with your servers, asking them to accept the risk of running unsupported OS without any viable backup (I assume LAN based backups are not possible either) and urge them to upgrade that outdated environment because it is insecure (no patches for bash and ssl bugs) unmaintained and cannot be backed up. alternatively, run a dedicated ‘old shit’ TSM server, outdated itself, so still a huge risk to operation.

Re: San question on Lanfree backup
Your storage agent should not see the changer. The TSM server owns the library and will mount and unmount all tapes. Verify that the zoning is correct for the missing drives. The STA must the zoned to the ports you present the drives on. Verify that the access group(s) are correct for the missing drives. The DD must allow access (masking for the SAN people) to the drives from the port that the STA is zoned to. This access is controlled by the WWN, so if you have more than 1 access group be sure the correct WWN is in all of the groups.

Re: simultaneous write and lanfree
Thanks Neil, it works if copystg is set to blank. But what I understand from the following excerpt is that autocopy=none should be enough: (Reference: TSM 6.2 Problem Determination Guide) *If the storage pool is set for simultaneous-write operations*, the “Copy Storage Pool(s):” value references one or more other storage pool names and Tivoli Storage Manager interprets the simultaneous-write operation to be a higher priority than the LAN-free data transfer. Because simultaneous-write operations are considered a higher priority operation, this storage pool is not reported as LAN-free enabled and as such, the client will send the data directly to the server. The storage agent does not support simultaneous-write operations.

I know that in TSM prior to 6.x, the AUTOCOPY property of the storage pool did not exist - simultaneous write was determined by whether or not COPYSTGPOOL was defined for the storage pool.

Re: LANfree to multiple tape drives concurrently
Hi In the case of a simple filesystem backup (BA), set the RESOURCEUTILIZATION parameter in the client dsm.opt/sys file to allow for multiple mounts and set the MAXIMUM MOUNT POINTS (maxnummp) in the Node config to allow for how many drives you want to let them use. I tend to set it like this for my four drive clients. update node NODENAME maxnummp 4 Add this to dsm.sys file in the Windows world or dsm.opt for Unix. resourceutilization 10 This page explains the setting a littl better than I could as the numbering system is just strange. http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tsminfo/v6/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.itsm.perf.doc%2Fr_opt_client_resourceutilization.html Hope that helps Cheers Jim Jim Young Tivoli Team Leader Cattles Group IT.

LANfree to multiple tape drives concurrently
Hi, Can a TSM client (BA or TDP) be configured to use multiple tape drives concurrently? A filesystem with tens of Terabytes of incremental data should be backed up which evidently takes lots of hours with a single LTO4 drive. Say there are enough ports/paths/ISLs available to support at least two parallel backup sessions from the client to the library. The source disk's read performance is approximately twice the write performance of a tape drive. Thank you
Re: LANfree to multiple tape drives concurrently
Yes it can, if it is just one filesystem you will have to manually split it in the TSM BA configuration but this can also be done. I am not sure if it is going to be faster than a backup via disk, that will depend on the size and the amount of the files to be backed up I think. How many files are there and what is your changerate on the data in amount of files and TB's? I am sure you know about the BA journaling feature, that could be a life saver when you have large amounts of files and you are on a supported filesystem platform.

Hi peppix, you are using incremental backup for an offline database backup. I wonder, how you deal with 5 tape drives. Normally, backup incremental is using one session per mountpoint. set max. number of mountpoints in node definition for parallelism. The throughput reported is ok for single session backup via LAN, It is slow for a large file backup via LANfree for a completely fibre channel based RAID system, but acceptable for SATA storage.

Re: Antwort: [ADSM-L] LanFree very low performance
A couple questions 1) How is this 5TB laid out, 1,2,3,4 or more file systems? 2) How many streams do you see when the backup is running? (Resource utilization / mutli streaming is by File System for flat file backups. 3) Are the tape drives on dedicated HBA's? 4) Are you sure that the Data is going over the fibre? If not configured properly TSM will automatically direct the backups over the LAN (sounds right for 70MBS) Charles -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ads...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of David McClelland Sent: Tuesday, November 23, 2010 8:14 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] Antwort: [ADSM-L] LanFree very low performance Peppix, It may be helpful if you are able to send to the list the output of a backup session summary report from the client for a backup operation which exhibited this poor performance.

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!

AIX LANFree 5.5.3.0
dEAR all, I had a problem with archive in AIX client,TSM Client 5.5.0.0, TSM STA 5.5.3.0, TSM Server Windows 5.5.3.0. When i do an archive , client session is disconnected again and again, archive process seems never finished (it takes so long so i cancel it) and the act log show this error: ANR0486W Session 20791 for node CLIENT (AIX) terminated - internal error detected. ANRD Thread63 issued message 486 from: ANRD Thread63 AA7FC000 Unknown Is it bug in TSM STA 5.5.3 as in http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1IC62348 ??? Because when i turn the STA off, the process runs smoothly. Thanks for any help Best Regards, Yudi Darmadi http://www.niagaprima.com
Re: AIX LANFree 5.5.3.0
If your server and client fully evidence the indicators as described in the cited IC62348 APAR, you could pursue that. Otherwise, pursue applying the current maintenance level to your 5.5.0 client, which is unhealthily running at base level, with no maintenance. Once that is done, if the problem persists, I would perform some isolation testing, and turn on client tracing if that depth of information is necessary. Richard Sims

Re: TSM 5.5 using LANFree backup really slow
Flavio You didn't say what your client machine is. How about an image copy and a complete incremental on the weekend and a incremental-by-date on other days. For a full restore you can restore the image and then apply the incrementals. This should be reasonably quick. Incremental-by-date is the fastest form of incremental backup, but is not complete, hence you need a normal incremental periodically. I'm a little perplexed by your stated need for a full backup. Most TSM installations do not bother with fulls, as they are unnecessary. Using a separate storage pool for this node, or a shared but collocated storage pool will provide the necessary restore speed. If that is not sufficient consider an active pool, and if that is still not fast enough you can go with the image plus incremental.

Re: TSM 5.5 using LANFree backup really slow
Hi, Maybe You can try this first:, using Operating system backup, try to backup direct to tape, and see the result. I've been facing this kind of problem, file server backup using LANFree. Total data approximately 900 GB - 1 TB, number of files approx 1,1 millions, and it took more than 24 hours.But when i used Operating system backup, backup direct to tape, the result much better than TSM LANFree backups. So i check all recomended setting for performance tuning, and there's an increasing in speed and transfer time. Best Regards, Yudi Darmadi PT Niagaprima Paramitra Jl.

Re: TSM 5.5 using LANFree backup really slow
LAN Free will be poor with this kind of data. What is your actual backup restore requirement? What's your backup window, how much data and how much changed data per day.

Large files/objects or lots of smaller files/objects? The classic recommendation for SAN backups direct to tape is that it's best used only for larger objects (eg database backups, TDPs or disk image etc) to ensure optimal streaming to tape. Backing up a file server with millions of individual small files direct to tape won't always produce a great overall throughput figure. /David Mc London, UK Sent from my iPhone On 1 Aug 2009, at 15:37, Flavio Junior bil...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Steve, thanks for answering... Yeah, the destination is tape, i see on StorageAgent console the connection to server and opening tape, during the backup I see the bytes increasing on Backup by LANFree: (but, this value is ALWAYS lower than the value of normal backup... i don't know if this is normal).

LANFree to disk restore from deduplicated storage pool
Suppose I do a LANFree backup to a GPFS sequential disk storage pool, then deduplicate that pool. On restore, is the storage agent smart enough to access the deduplicated data, or will this turn into a LAN restore? Bill Mansfield

Does LANFREE work on VMware
Hello All, Thanks for your help!! I have a client with 3 Exchange serves w/2.5TB of mail, running the TDP and they are using LAN-FREE. They want to vitrualize the three servers onto a new VMware farm. Will they be able to still use the LAN-FREE on the VM? I saw on the Info Center that a guest is not supported directly for LAN-FREE but that there was a way to do it using VCB. I can't find any good info. Does anyone have experience with this configuration? Any help or info would be appreciated! Regards, Nicholas

Configure with Emulex FC HBA a) Run Emulex HBAnyware or lputil utilities to find and record the target and lun of tape device b) For lpfc.30g or later, change these parameters for IBMtape driver in /kernel/drv/lpfc.conf and reboot. If you want the IBMtape driver as the default tape driver, set the parameter target-tape=IBMtape; If IBMtape is used as the default changer driver, modify the setting target-tapechanger=IBMtape; These parameters can also be made hba specific, by prefixing the parameter with lpfcX-, where X is the lpfc instance number. c) Add the entry in the end of /usr/kernel/drv/IBMtape.conf name=IBMtape parent=lpfc target=0; If failed to configure the changer, you may need to add the entries: name=IBMtape parent=lpfc target=X lun=0; name=IBMtape parent=lpfc target=X lun=1; d) Update the entry for the device in IBMtape.conf if needed, the current entry in IBMtape.conf is added up to target 255 with Lun 0 and 1. For instance, add an entry for a mapped device with a traget 200 and lun 3 name=IBMtape class=scsi target=200 lun=3; e) Unload and reload IBMtape driver # /opt/IBMtape/tmd -s # rem_drv IBMtape # add_drv -m '* 0666 bin bin' IBMtape # /opt/IBMtape/tmd f) Display the configured devices information running /opt/IBMtape/tapelist -l - if you are using Sun branded Emuelx HBA driver -- emlxs with this HBA 4).

Hi, Abid, Did you define paths on the library manager between the storage agent and the drives it will use? For the Device parameter in the path definitions, you need to use the tape drive device names as they appear on the client machine.

LANfree issue
Storage agent machine is Windows 2003 SP2, 64-bit. Client v 5.4.1.6, storage agent version 5.4.2 TSM server is AIX 5.3, server v5.4.2. Storage agent config seems to be correct, but the devices under device manager will not start. I have updated them to the correct IBM device drivers. Has anyone struggled with this before? I can see the library and drives in the storage agent console, including the WWNs, serial numbers, etc. The devices will show up in device manager, but will not start. The 'validate lanfree' and 'q san' commands show things to be in order. Is this a device driver issue, or what? God bless you!!!

Re: ***SPAM*** [ADSM-L] AIX/Linux Lpar, Vio Server and Lanfree
Francisco, How about installing a small TSM Server on one of your LPARs. It would be a library management client to your main TSM server and back up itself and the other LPARs across the virtual ethernet. The only local disk you would need is the TSM DB and log, backups could go straight to tape just as if it was a storage agent..

Re: Testing lanfree backups with storage agent...
I just ran into a similar problem. It was the first time I dealt with paths on a windows machine. My problem was that I rebooted a couple times after the initial define path and never set up persistent bindings. You can either try and get SAN Discovery working, or set up persistent bindings on your HBA driver. Then work out the serial number/path mapping -Shawn Shawn Drew Data Protection Engineer Core IT Production BNP Paribas RCC, Inc.

TDPO/LanFree setup questions
Hi Everyone, We're struggling on how to setup TDPO and LanFree. Not the mechanics on making it work, but on the best way to use it. We would like to do the following: 1) Oracle DB backups go LanFree straight to tape. 2) Archive logs go LAN to a disk pool, then migrated to tape. 3) Archive logs also go immediately sent to a offsite TSM instance (disk pool) (lan). If we set it up for lan to the disk pool, and then use the filesize option to write big db files straight to tape, they still go LAN. . . not LanFree. I read that TDPO/LanFree will honor incl/excl options with different management classes. This sounds good, but all the data is coming from RMAN/TDPO. I don't know what I would use for a incl/excl for the archive logs. Also, we would like to get an immediate offsite copy of archive logs. Again, we would like this offsite copy be to a disk pool so as not to wait for tape mounts and drive contention. We found a way to do this via a second archive log destination with a completely separate rman setup to a offsite TSM server. There didn't seem to be a way in RMAN to send a archive log to multiple destinations, and then delete the archive log. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

Re: TDPO/LanFree setup questions
Hi, You can find in the Data Protection for Oracle for UNIX and Linux Installation and User's Guide (SC32-9064-02): - Please note that the Tivoli Storage Manager client user options file (dsm.opt by default) you must edit for Data Protection for Oracle is located in the directory specified by the dsmi_orc_config option. If this option is not specified, Data Protection for Oracle looks for this options file in the Data Protection for Oracle installation directory. - include Add an include statement to the dsm.sys file (used by the Oracle node) when a management class (other than the default management class) is defined within an existing policy domain. This include statement binds the Oracle backup objects to the management class that is defined for managing these objects. The include statement uses the following naming convention: /FilespaceName//ObjectName The FORMAT parameter in the RMAN script can also be used to assist with object naming. For example, if the FORMAT parameters (in the RMAN script) specified the following values for databases and logs: format 'DB_%u_%p_%c' format 'LOG_%u_%p_%c' The include statement in the dsm.sys file (used by the Oracle node) would be as follows: INCLUDE /adsmorc/.../DB* mgmtclassnameforDBs INCLUDE /adsmorc/.../LOG* mgmtclassnameforLogs Regards, Pierre Cayé -Message d'origine- De : ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] De la part de Richard Rhodes Envoyé : lundi 5 novembre 2007 20:49 À : ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Objet : [ADSM-L] TDPO/LanFree setup questions Hi Everyone, We're struggling on how to setup TDPO and LanFree.

There didn't seem to be a way in RMAN to send a archive log to multiple destinations, and then delete the archive log. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

Fw: TDPO/LanFree setup questions
Rick, For the backups going LAN to your tape drives, and not LANFree, since you are setup for LAN to your DASD pool, and initiating the session via LAN, the LANFree agent won't be engaged, so when you spill over to tape, you're still going over the LAN. You have to send directly to a sequential pool (tape or sequential disk with Sanergy) to get LANFree to work. Don't forget, you don't send data to storage pool, you're sending it to a management class, which specifies the storagepool to use. So you can direct the data to the appropriate location with INCLUDE statements. Rather than cut/paste, here's the manual for TSM for Databases 5.4.1 for Oracle on Unix and Linux: (Everyone know about the InfoCenter at: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tivihelp/v1r1/index.jsp ,don't they???) http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tivihelp/v1r1/topic/com.ibm.itsmfd.doc/ab5u0003.pdf Page 48 (64 in the PDF file) has examples for what you want to do. With the management classes configured on your TSM Server, you can have backups LANFree to a tape pool and Logs go LAN to DASD. Now, for Want #3, look at Page 52 in the manual (68 of the PDF file) and see if that will do what you want it to. It's not a separate TSM Server, but it could be a storage pool on the local TSM Server that is located elsewhere, and could use Virtual Volumes, if you so desire.

Not the mechanics on making it work, but on the best way to use it. We would like to do the following: 1) Oracle DB backups go LanFree straight to tape. 2) Archive logs go LAN to a disk pool, then migrated to tape. 3) Archive logs also go immediately sent to a offsite TSM instance (disk pool) (lan). If we set it up for lan to the disk pool, and then use the filesize option to write big db files straight to tape, they still go LAN. . . not LanFree. I read that TDPO/LanFree will honor incl/excl options with different management classes. This sounds good, but all the data is coming from RMAN/TDPO. I don't know what I would use for a incl/excl for the archive logs. Also, we would like to get an immediate offsite copy of archive logs.

Re: Question about LANFree and multiple servers/libraries
Sorry, too busy... so you want to define two nodes, each one using a different STA, and all that on the same machine... I'd never configure two sta on the same machine and it is not possible. There are no way to use two different base directory for your sta. You can't indicate an other option file than the default one. And, last, the sta create a lock file on the sta base directory, so it is not possible, even if you script something to bluff the sta, to start a second one...
