I had made a change in our copy groups from VerExists and VerDeleted from NoLimit to
Verexists 5 Verdeleted 3. It appears by doing this all of the TSM clients (WinNT,
Win2K, Novel, Sun ETC) are going through a "full" backup to apply the changes to each
file which is causing a huge load on the TSM servers and the recovery log fills.
Couple Questions
1) By making this change doe the node then have to re-examine all clients file
and back them up as if it was a new client.?
2) If yes to No 1 then it would create a Huge load on the server?
3) Anyone know of a way improve / speed up the process? (DB Cache is @ 98-99%
4) For the new retentions to take affect does the following need to happen?
Node Backup, DB Backup, then expire?
5) If I change the copy group retentions back to a create the same situation
all over?
Environment Info
Server Info = Running TSM 4.1.5.3 on AIX 4.3.3
Client Info= Netware 4.11, 5, Win2K SP2, Winnt4 SP4+ , Solaris 2.8, 8, AIX
4.3.3
Any help on how to improve this process would be GREATLY appreciated!!!
