Hi Paul. I have implemented new and upgraded a few shops - expect a learning curve with the ISC/AC - see my previous posts to the list. The new 5.3 function (parallel/serial, migrate and reclaim commands, etc.) is great!. Also very much liked is the ability to delete individual backup files with

- ANS1301E is telling you that some problem occurred on the TSM server... so what does the TSM server activity log show? - Off-hand, I do not know what specific problem you are seeing. However, 5.1.6.0 is pretty old in software-years. Consider upgrading to a current level, which may already have

TSM client uppgrade 5.1.7.3 to 5.2.3.11

Hi, If I upgrade TSM client on a w2k3 server, 5.1.7.3 to 5.2.3.11. Then I have SYSTEM OBJECT´s in 'q fi'. Compared to a clean install of 5.2.3.11. Why does SYSTEM OBJECT remain? I think SYSTEM OBJECT should be converted or expired... hopefully I´m just missing something here... Any thoughts?

Re: TSM client uppgrade 5.1.7.3 to 5.2.3.11

The 5.2 (and higher) client uses Microsoft's Volume Snapshot Services (VSS) for backing up Windows 2003 system state and system services, whereas the 5.1 client uses the Microsoft legacy API functions. The two methods are incompatible and cannot be converted between each other. Since the

DB2 LANFree reconfiguration to use LAN

Guys, We're backing up DB2 v7 (WinNT) via LANFree to a TSM 4.2 server on AIX. All has been relatively fine and dandy. However, we're now due to upgrade the TSM server to v5.2 and must therefore revert to LAN backups for this DB2 instance. Does anyone know whether a db2stop/db2start is required to

Re: TSM thinks local disk is a cluster disk

Hi Richard! I checked it myself, the options file is ok. The backup GUI also just doesn't list the D: drive. Indeed it's strange that TSM says ANS1153E Drive : is a cluster disk. while you would expect message: 'ANS1153E Drive D: is a cluster disk.. I'm thinking about an incorrect registry entry,

Re: DB2 LANFree reconfiguration to use LAN

Depends on when the storage agent fails. If it fails during backup/restore processing, the DB/2 backup(or restore) will fail. If it fails and then the DB/2 process starts, yes it will fail-over to LAN functionality. Best Regards Daniel Sparrman --- Daniel
