Hi, I've been designated the TSM administrator here at my workplace, and I'm trying to educate myself as I go without making a mess of things. Our IBM partner came in and installed the server and a few clients, and handed it over to me. I now have about 200 Win2K clients, 40 AIX Clients, and about 5 Linux Clients.
My question is this: The person that installed our environment basically set up 6 Policy Domains: Colodom, Exchange, Lanfree, MSSQL, Nocodom, and Oracle. 99% of the clients are in the Nocodom (non-collocated) domain, which has one policy set, and one management class which has one backup copy group with retention policies set to NOLIMIT, 3, 60, 60. So, my problem is this. It turns out that in trying to upgrade from 4.2.2.3 to 5.1.X we ran into the problem with System Objects BIGTIME. We are retaining 60 days worth of System Object files for about 200 Win2K clients, which translates to about 29,000,000 System Object files, and about 55% of our TSM database (36 GB). What we've decided to do before upgrading to 5.1.X is to upgrade to 4.2.3 and lessen the retention for the System Objects. However, I have no experience in setting up Mgmt classes, policy sets, etc, and I'm not sure what I need to do in that arena. What I'd like to get to is this: 1) System Objects retained for 7 days 2) Everything else retained for 60 days How do I set up an additional policy set for just the System Object stuff?
