We used to for our SAP databases but our databases grow to fast to support the constant size change license purchases from SQL Backtrack. We switched to TDP and it has helped because we lost the finger pointing between BMC and Tivoli when we had a backtrack problem. Becky -Original

Re: Offsite Vaulting with Locked Canisters

Mark, Think for a second, if reclaimation supported a days option versus the current percent utilized option. If that was the case you could set that number of days about 7 days less than when the closed boxes are to return and achieve the goal. Well, I have written the code to do just that via

Hey, Josh. You could write a Perl script (or pick a language) that manages these canisters. It can track which volumes are in each canister, check all their %util and %recl and generate a canister %util/%recl. Then you can have your script issue delete vols or move datas when a canister is

We run on the ESS. No mirroring! You are paying for a solution that has such high availability numbers it makes no sense. If you want to improve your recovery, run more incremental backups so you can roll to the most current, do a volhistory dump, and put that information on the root disk (not

NT 4.0 100% CPU Usage

All (HELP) When backups are triggered via a batch file on NT 4.0 Clients they use 100% of CPU and the dsmc process continues to use 100% of CPU even after the backup shows complete and successful in TSM. The process then has to be killed manually in order to release the CPU cycles. AIX 5.1

To my knowledge, if you are on maintenance, the CE will apply the code to the drives. However, it is a lot easier if you just get the code and use tapeutil to load it from your host, no tape required. Paul D. Seay, Jr. Technical Specialist Naptheon Inc. 757-688-8180 -Original Message-

Re: Oracle and TDP issues

2002-10-22 Thread Tailor, Steve
There is a program supplied with Oracle 7 called EBU. What we are doing is to use EBU to backup the database to disk and then do an archive of the backup. It all works OK as long as you have the disk space. We also have to do this with our Oracle 9 databases as TDP for that version is not yet

Is IE 5 required for TSM BA Client to run properly on NT 4.0 with Service Pack 6? Are there any special dll requirements for NT 4.0 for TSM client 5.1 to work properly. When IE 5 is installed on the client the backup works if it is not installed it hangs the CPU at 100%

TDP for Domino Retention

Would someone please explain to me what these settings will mean to me as it relates to TDP for domino backups? The schedule is below. Is there going to be 45 versions of each type of backup or what? I'm told they want to be able to go back 45 days. I'm not sure how this should be set up though.

Matt, You are absolutely correct. Co-location is by storage pool, not by management class. So yes, you would need to carve your disk up into multiple storage pools to selectively use co-location, or you could set up a tape pool that was co-located and go directly to tapes but caution! you would

Your database is I/O-bound. You have, essentially, duplicated your protection at different levels. You need to choose between 1) RAID-5 or 2) TSM Software mirroring, but you should not use both. Either one will protect you from a disk drive failure, and either one will allow the server to stay up
