Hi *SMers,
I hope someone out there can give me some hints on the following
problem.
Basics:
1. About 20000 users, having their $HOME in AFS, are backuped by a
TSM-AIX-AFS-client (dsmcafs, 3.7.2) onto a TSM-AIX-server (3.7.3)
2. Each user is backed up seperately having its own filespace by
means of a
VIRTUALMountpoint ${USER_DIR}
in "dsm.sys"
3. This backup of the above users is done on the SERVER-machine
using
COMMMethod SHAREDmem
and processing the 20000 users in 4 parallel streams
(having checked wether the've been active during the last 3 days)
lasting about 2 hours per stream
4. The AFS-Servers are running on HP-UX 10.20 machines
The TSM-Server runs on an IBM H70 under AIX 4.3.3
Problem:
1. Trying to do a RESTORE with a TSM-AIX-AFS-client (dsmafs, 3.7.2)
on the VERY SAME server-machine has an undetermined behaviour:
- I see ALL files of a user "user_A" as "user_A"
- I see SOME files of a user "user_B" as "user_B"
- I see NONE files of a user "user_C" as "user_C"
- I see ALL files of a user "user_*" as "root"
2. The "failing" is in such a way, that the GUI says
"0 Objects"
or e.g. "2 Objects" instead of "21 Objects"
3. Doing the RESTORE on another AIX-machine than the server-machine
as "user_*" results in the SAME behaviour as given in "Problem.1"
Further Info:
1. The first line in the "dsm.opt"-file is:
SERvername RZAFSREST
and the
corresponding "dsm.sys" contains a stanza for the "RZAFSREST"
having a line
Nodename TSM_SERVER
AND the file
/etc/security/adsm/RZAFSREST
has been created by running
dsmc q sched -server=RZAFSREST
giving the resp. "SERVER_PASSWORD" at the prompt.
2. The actual calling (see following script) is done via:
dsmafs \
-optfile=/afs/tu-bs.de/appl/tsm/pro/bin/dsm.opt.rzafs
3. The sample script "mydsm" ( reduced to "bare-bones" ) for running
the GUI (for sake of "afs" or "mail" restores ) is as follows
(BTW. mail-restores have none of the above mentioned problems):
#!/bin/ksh
os=`/bin/uname`
case $os in
HP-UX) SM_CMD=/usr/adsm/dsm;;
AIX) SM_CMD=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsmafs;;
esac
afs_mail=$1
case $afs_mail in
afs)
# AFS-Restore-case
export USER_DIR=$HOME
opt_file=/afs/tu-bs.de/appl/tsm/pro/bin/dsm.opt.rzafsrest
;;
mail)
# MAIL-Restore-case
srv=`echo $MAILSERVER | /bin/cut -d. -f1`
export USER_DIR=/dsk/$srv\.mail/`echo $MAIL | /bin/cut -d\/ -f4-`
opt_file=/afs/tu-bs.de/appl/tsm/pro/bin/dsm.opt.$srv
;;
esac
echo 'USER_DIR='$USER_DIR
echo 'opt_file='$opt_file
$SM_CMD -optfile=$opt_file
With some hope for replies,
--
