Re: How to remove space management from TSM Client

The natural way to achieve this, would be a dsmmigfs remove, but this process recalls all files ... So maybe you try something like the following (which I did not test): - unmount the filesystems - kill the HSM processes (and prevent them from being started again -- rc.adsmhsm in inittab) -

Identifying client schedule mode.

Hello, this should be an easy one... The TSM Server has schedmode set to any. What can I run from the server to see what mode a client is using? I have been selecting from various tables but have not had any luck in finding the answer. Thanks, Jon

Jon, Bad news, you can not see what the schedmode for the client on the server. Because the parameter is set in the dsm.sys file (Unix) or the dsm.opt file (Windows). If you do not see the schedmode parameter in the file then the default is being used. I believe the default is polling. Sias

I'd suggest using TSM to back the data up to LTO, then back up the LTO storage pool to a copy pool and send the copies off-site. Run reclaims and only bring back empty or pending empty off-site tapes. My worst case sends off a tape that is 5% full daily. The reclaim actually kicks in just after

Re: Mitigating Risk with TSM's incremental backups

2002-01-24 Thread Bill Mansfield
Justin, TSM isn't really designed for a regular offsite rotation. The intention is to send the copy storagepool tape offsite each day, regardless of how full it is. You then perform offsite reclamation, which uses primary storage pool tapes (or optical) to recombine the data from several

As Tom mentioned, the key here is the reusedelay parameter on the copy storage pool. You don't bring a tape back from off-site until you are sure that its replacement is off-site as well. If you assume it takes two days for a newly created copy storage pool tape to arrive safely offsite, then

You can sort of tell this on the server side by doing a query like this: q actlog begind=-1 search=nodename By looking that time entries for the hits you get if you see a definite time pattern, say every six hours, you can probably assume polling. If you see only a single hit or perhaps none,
