Re: Migration Etc.
One doesn't migrate data to the copy pools, one uses backup stg tapepool copypool to make that happen. Do you have an admin schedule that executes this command? Did that schedule somehow stop running? If the administrator account that created an admin schedule is deleted, schedules that were created by that user stop working (active=no). Check that. Kelly J.

Re: Backups through a firewall

Any good firewall (And firewall admin) will only open up the traffic between the client and the tsm server anway.

Re: Restoring Client to Client Data
For either Windows or UNIX clients, I think this is the simplest way: Log in to NODEC. If this is Windows, open a DOS type command window CD to the TSM client program directory: cd c:\program files\tivoli\tsm\baclient Start the backup client with the -virtualnodename parm: dsm -virtualnodename=NODEB virtualnodename means you are pretending to be NODEB. The TSM client will open as usual, but it will prompt you for the TSM password for NODEB. Click the RESTORE button The file tree of backup versions you see displayed will be for NODEB. Select the files you want restored. You MUST specify an output destination, not just restore to original location (because the UNC names for NODEB don't match NODEC) That's it. If it's something you do frequently, you can set up a Windows shortcut so that you don't have to open the DOS window and cd to the directory to get started. For UNIX the process is similar, just change the path name as appropriate. Don't know if virtualnodename is available for every client - don't know about NOVELL, for instance.

(which of course will change the playing field for my schedules) SO DO YOU SET UP YOUR TSM TAPE HANDLING ON OS390 z/OS LIKE THIS ? We have a similar set-up with two device classes specifying different prefixes for dataset names. The batch jobs that manage TSM housekeeping update the mountlimit parameters for the two device classes several times during the course of each daily processing cycle. This enables us to keep the total number of mounts requested for both device classes less than or equal to the total number of installed tape drives. This approach works most of the time. We do get occasional failures when a batch job attempts to reduce the on-site mount limit from 2 to 1 and both drives have on-site tapes mounted. This can happen because on-site tape reclamation runs longer than expected or because two clients run restores. We also lose some flexibility in allocating tape drives. The most frequent problem in this regard occurs when the mount limits are set to 1 for each device class (to support off-site tape reclamation) and one or more clients request restores. We end up using only one drive for the restores. At the worst we lose the opportunity to have two drives reading data, if there are two independent restores or a SQL/BackTrack restore set up for multiple streams. At best we lose the opportunity to mount the next tape on an idle drive while the previous tape is dismounting. I think there is a possible middle ground between relying on the vault pattern dataset and doing everything yourself. I studied the CA-1 manuals when I was first setting up ADSM. As nearly as I can recall, it is possible to create a batch update stream that will set the outcode field in the CA-1 database records for specified volumes. CA-1 will then treat these volumes just as like volumes with dataset names matching entries in the vault pattern dataset. I was not able to sell this approch to the system programmers. They seemed very nervous about the batch update utility for the CA-1 database. The transition from your current configuration to a configuration with a single tape device class might be very difficult. It is not possible to either change the device class for an existing storage pool or change the dataset name prefix for an existing device class.

Re: Windows 2000 Server Spec for TSM 5.1
Your backup sizing is quite small; are you sure it's that small? There are Redbooks on sizing for AIX; also, there is much material from SHARE proceedings on performance and tuning. A more typical arrangement (I've seen) for a single-client+server situation might be 50 GB to start, up to 100 GB total backup occupancy, on a file/print server that is also a TSM server (and client) -- which I had at two sites; we configured with 4-way Dell processors, 512MB RAM, external RAID for the file-served data, internal drives for the TSM db, log disk pool (102 GB). This was a software development marketing site, this HW config was more than sufficient to handle both TSM and file-server loads with sub-second response time for normal business day users... the main deficiency was only one tape drive, so we insisted that primary storage pool )for backups) stay on disk, two copy pools to tape (one for onsite, one for offsite) to fully protect their data -- which we limited to 60 GB of file server storage.

Re: Migration Etc.
Onsite reclamation is a volume at a time. Setting the RECLAIM=100 will not stop the current reclamation PROCESS, but will prevent any more from starting. Unless you cancel the process, TSM will finish reclaming the current volume. Offsite reclamation is a single process for ALL tape volumes to be reclaimed. Setting the RECLAIM=100 will only stop future reclamation tasks from starting. THe current reclamation process will run until it's finished. It doesn't stop just because you set the RECLAIM back to 100%. You need to cancel the process to stop reclamation that is currently running. There is no duration setting...it runs until its done or you cancel it.

I am fairly new to TSM and I would appreciate any help anyone could give. Oh by the way the Server is a NT machine running TSM 4.2.1 thanks in advance Paul
Include/Excludes revisited - again, for the 5.x client systemobje ct
Server: TSM 4.2.2.0 / 3466 configuration Client: TSM 4.2.1.19 and 5.1.01 on Win2K (Partial) Option set as displayed from client with dsmc q incexcl Excl All *\...\*.exeServer Excl All *\...\*.dllServer This should exclude any file(s) in any directory that ends in .exe or .dll, right? Just for the sake of argument, I also tried - in the local DSM.OPT file, Exclude ?:\...\*.dll Exclude ?:\...\*.exe EXCLUDE.FILE ?:\...\*.dll EXCLUDE.FILE ?:\...\*.exe None of which will apparently exclude some 127MB of .DLL and .EXE files that get sent to the TSM server as (for example) Normal File--28,432 \\adsm2000\c$\WINNT\system32\XCOPY.EXE [Sent] I opened a PMR with support about this under 4.1.2.19 and was told that certain .DLLs could not be excluded unless the SYSTEMOBJECT was excluded... However, I find it hard to believe that XCOPY.EXE is a critical system file that must be backed up with the registry. I changed the DOMAIN statement to include only the C: drive, and the .exe and .dll files were not sent. I have over 1500 nodes on this TSM server, and each of them sending a minimum of 127MB per day to the server results in a very large amount of turnover - over 1600 objects per node that have to be expired and space reclaimed, when those objects really haven't changed. I do want the registry backed up, but I don't want the overhead of all those .DLLs, every single backup... is there anyway around this? Is there some option that can be introduced (hopefully in a client option set on the server) that will the newer clients operate like the 4.1 clients that didn't send .DLLs with the system registry?
Solaris 8 on Sparc 3
Hi all. Can anyone tell me which version of the client are supported under Solaris 8, running on a SParc 3 processor? 4.x doesn't appear to run, 3.x does (Well, it doesn't die immediately), but what is supported?

Re: 3570 drive
Hi You say you have two drives but errpt shows rmt0, rmt1 and rmt2. Is this ok? In any case this happens when drives need cleaning. If you have a cleaning cartridge installed and drive detects cleaning is needed then it stops what it is doing cleans the drive and then resumes operations. There is also the possibility of some of your tapes be damaged did you check it? You may also consider consulting 3570 manual to analise SIM/MIM or Sense Data records from detailed error log.

Subject: un-register licenses?
Hello!
Does anyone know if there is a way to un-register licenses to TSM
without
recycling the server and/or deleting the nodelock file (which requires
registering ALL of the licenses again...I think)? I ran into the known
apar where the 'register lic' command seemingly doesn't register
licenses
(tried to verify by 'q license'). So, after running it twice, I decided
to
look at the nodelock file and viola! there was 2X the number of
licenses
that I wanted to register. The 'q license' output still says that the
licenses haven't been updated, and we are getting thousands of the 'out
of
compliance' messages in our actlog. We are running TSM server code
4.2.2
for AIX.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Reclamation is not happening - HELP!
Offsite reclamation runs very slow when processing input data from disk. (see http://msgs.adsm.org/cgi-bin/get/adsm0203/501.html) Also with offsite reclamation, TSM will process all the eligible offsite tapes at once (it does not process one offsite tape then the next).

Re: Backups through a firewall
Search www.adsm.org and you will find more complete discussion of this issue. It's pretty simple; you just have to set up a hole in your firewall that allows the traffic. All our clients use POLLING for SCHEDMODE. (I.e., client contacts the server first). By default, the client and server communicate on port 1500. All the firewall guy had to do was create a rull that allows TCP/IP traffic through the firewall for port 1500 for the particular client address. If you use SCHEDMODE PROMPTED, I believe you also have to enable port 1501. If you want to use the web client to do TSM backups/restores remotely, that uses port 1581. All those ports are configurable, i.e., you can tell TSM client and server to use different ports if you want. Depending on your firewall config, you may also have to increase the default firewall timeout for TSM. Some firewall software will automatically close the connection after n minutes, if there is no traffic; it is not uncommon for a TSM client to go silent for a while as it noodles around in the client directory looking for things to back up. Symptoms of that problem: on the client in dsmsched.log you will see that during the backup the TSM session is terminated, then it reconnects and backs up some more, then gets disconnected, then reconnects, etc. many times during the backup window. May or may not ever finish the backup completely. Increase the firewall timeout so that the firewall doesn't close the connection. Check adsm.org for more discussion.

Hello All:
I have a unix client that kicks off an incremental backups thru tivoli
using an internal dump process for a sql database. I want to provide a
report to the group that monitors its backup. The only information they
care about is whether a filespace backed up successfully, what files
failed, and how much data was transferred. For the time being I am
running 'q actlog begind=-1 begint=18:00:00 sea='nodename', because we
try to schedule our backups between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. This is too much
information to run thru on a daily basis for them and they were hoping I
could trim down a report. Does anybody have a select statement or query
that comes close to the needs I have?
Thanks,

You can also put rules to limit the connections through port 1500 only to the TSM server address. If you change the default port of 1500 for the TSM server you need to change ALL of your clients to use this new port number.

Re: Backups through a firewall
You cannot hide them so I see no reason to change them. If firewall is set-up correct it should allow traffic outside DMZ to those ports. If an intruder compromised a TSM node in DMZ you modified ports are known. The main security issue (IMO) is than *SM is using same port for backups and for admin client sessions. And opening this port in the firewall opens ability to connect as administrator to the server.

Re: Running a Windows Batch file on my Windows server
Instead of deleting and re-defining the schedule , we've changed our procedures to just update the schedule with a new starttime/startdate of NOW+hh:ss and TODAY. Saves having to del/define/associate everything. This way you can manually define the schedule the way you want before creating the script. And then change the association if need be without script changes. You can't update a script if the server is currently running that script. Our daily storage pool backup script runs with lots of WAIT=YES, so it's difficult to update that script. We've tried to move as much OUT of the script as we can to ease changes. Unfortunately, UPDATEing the schedule also seems to remove any event history. Just like deleting a schedule, all event history is removed, too.

Re: yes/no tape question for os/390 server people
Not only the mountlimit for the deviceclass, but how many tape drives are online versus how many are actually gen'd in the system via HCD. You may have a string of 8-3590's gen'd, but currently only have 4 physically hooked up. As far as MVS allocation is aware, these are devices that are just offline. If TSM needs a tape drive, and there aren't any available, but there are offline devices you end up with dynamic allocation messages from TSM (can't remember the ANR* message) and/or the more familar REply Device name, Wait, or Cancel message to the operator console. Message automation can take care of some of this, but cancelling a request for a tape drive to TSM can fail a backup or process. This is probably the thing I hate the most about TSM on OS/390...you can't tell TSM EXACTLY how many drives are available. All allocation goes through OS/390.

I wanted to take advantage of and follow the standard usage of our tape systems so I set up the TSM tape system in a way that I now question. I would like people to let me know if they are doing things like I am or not. If you would like to explain what you do, ood but please just let me know if I am out on my own with this. I am trying to determine if it is worth my time to change things. It is a little odd but here I go... I set up my 6 9840 tape drives with two different DEVICE definitions. I called one ONSITE9840 and the other OFFSITE9840. I did this because our entire CA1 Tape handling and STK SILO handling is based on the high level qualifier of the data set name on the first file of the tape. So I gave the 2 device classes different high level qualifiers, told the CA1 and STK software what I was doing and the normal running production system that put tapes in a vault pattern that has the offsite tapes go to our DR site with all the other tapes needed at DR was taken care of. No other special handling. It also took care of ejecting the tapes that were going offsite from the tape Silo system. No extra handling. I did have to add a step there to have TSM mark those tapes as OFSITE , that was it. I then would have my tape COPYPOOL use the OFFSITE9840 and the disk backuppoool migrate to the TAPEPOOL that used the ONSITE9840. The problems that seem to come from this is TSM thinks it has more tape drives than it does. SO TSM may start to do a disk to tape migration but it really doesn't have the tape drives available, yet (because they are busy making OFFSITE copies of backups). This of course makes scheduling much more difficult. And it has gotten ugly at times with server consolidations and the fact that I am running in ROLLFORWARD mode with version 4.1 and the 5GB log. So I am wondering if my life would be better if I really only defined to TSM the proper number of tape drives and let it handle some of its scheduling affairs, and I wrote all the procedures to handle the tapes coming and going affairs. (which of course will change the playing field for my schedules) SO DO YOU SET UP YOUR TSM TAPE HANDLING ON OS390 z/OS LIKE THIS ? Thanks Matt

Re: TSM on a win2k cluster
Cannot comment on the drive view or schedule-mode problems -- sounds like
a TSM-cluster service definition discrepancy (else, a bug; need to check the
cluster services setups and client code level, then contact Support Line or
install latest client code -- there's been a bunch of client-code activity
in cluster support this year, both for Win2K and AIX).
Regarding your speed/performance of incremental {If the EMC disks appear as
local drives, you should consider the NTFS journaling-incremental
feature.} -- alternatively, you may want to consider -incrbydate for your
weekday backups; the speed of progressive-incremental is largely due to the
client traversing the entire file system structure to identify which files
to process -- file systems with large numbers of files (anything over
half-million) seem to be cause for performance concerns. I had a client
that decided to address this issue by limiting their file systems to 100 GB;
starting a new drive-letter when reaching that size greatly helped mitigate
the daily incrementals (AND full file system restores, their main concern).
We recently did 1.6 million file/object restore for a 320 GB file system,
achieved nearly 10 GB/Hr with parallel restore sessions, DIRMC (very
important), DIRSonly and FILESonly options, to minimize NTFS re-org
thrashing, and CLASSIC (vs. no-query) restore path, to ensure minimal tape
mounts.
Result was backups of 12-20 GB, restores 6-15 GB/Hr, depending on
collocation standards. High priority (ie, mission critical or
high-visibility) servers get collocated.
Hope this helps. See, also, a dozen other posts this past couple months,
search for cluster in the subject field.

resources, the other 9 (clusterB). The clusters are used in any mode,
active-active any drive combination, active-passive.
ClusterA (308g used of 572g), about 4 million files
ClusterB (642g used of 719g), about 4 million files.
Both clusters are just used by users to shares for file and print access.
Are there others out there that have clusters of this capacity and using
TSM
to backup them?
First Attempt.
I looked at the redbook, sg24-5742-00, Using Tivoli Storage Management in
a
clustered Windows NT environment.
I first configured it using the common names method. Initial complete
backups of volumes took a while. We averaged 4-6g/ hour.
Worked somewhat ok, tell I tried to kick off the scheduler. When the
cluster is in active passive mode, I could get the scheduler to work using
sched mode prompted ,and refer to one dsm.opt file that included all the
cluster domains, e:-o:., It would grab the last scheduler that was started
and look at the dsm.opt file and run from there. So one schedule ran to
include all the drives NOW when the cluster is in active\passive mode,
I
could only get it to work with sched polling and not all the schedulers
would kick off. 2 to maybe 4 would kick off of the 11, so when using a
separate dsm.opt file per disk cluster group only.
Dealt with tech support, never got more scheduler to kick off then the 4.
NOTICE that I had to have different configurations depending on how the
cluster was in, whether active-active or active-passive. So that was not
a
solution.
Tech support suggested using the unique names method which is the only
method now referenced in their newer documentation.
Ok, I registered with TSM a separate node per cluster group. Created a
separate scheduler per cluster group. So I have 11 plus the quorum. The
initial complete backup speed about 4/6 g... .. Now something interesting
is
happening. One one node 2 of the cluster group disk can't be seen in TSM.
The users are using it fine on the server and it is available in the
operating system. I tried enabling the scheduler for those 2 disks, TSM
does not back them up because it does not see them. I swap to the other
node the disk cluster groups. TSM can now see it and manual backups and
scheduled backups works. Weird!
On the node that does not recognize the disk, thinks they are not
clustered
disks for some reason. Noticed the error when doing a command line backup.
The questions.
Do other business have clusters like these with this amount of disk space
and successfully using TSM to do backups? Are others experiencing these
type of issues?
Issues we see is the performance of the incrementals using the common
names
method is dreadfully slow.

Re: Backup second SQL instance
I have two SQL server instances on one machine and want to backup both of them. In TDP GUI I see first instance only (OK, this is known feature). There is in TDP doc noted that it is possible backup databases of all instances, but I cannot get this. I have two management classes, META_DATA for meta data backups, DATA_LOGY for backup databases and transaction logs. Tom, Use the /SQLSERVER=instance-name option to specify the instance to back up. ...where instance-name is the name of the SQL Server instance to back up. For example, for the GUI: tdpsql /SQLSERVER=instance-name or for the command-line interface: tdpsqlc backup * full /SQLSERVER=instance-name If you don't specify the option, it will back up the default instance.

We were seeing the problems with the 4.2.2 clients under UNIX (mainly Linux), and moved to the 5.1 client (we have a 4.2.2.0 server under AIX), and we are also seeing the problems you are describing. Worse than that, there seem to be problems with restoring files as well. I have not found a description of the problem yet in the APAR database for TSM.

More info can be found on AV programs vendors' sites (example http:[EMAIL PROTECTED]). I my case I got a virus with signature as coming from Alex Paschal. Alex is innocent and has nothing to do with this garbage. And for sure he would not send to me a mail with so silly subject. So the mail was very suspicious. I am using Lotus Notes for mail so am immune to viruses targeting Outlooks but many of you are prospective targets (and might be even infected). The person with infected computer is using ISP in Argentina but I am unable to identify him/her. Since my subscription to the list no-one from this provider's domain has made posts. I guess he/she is a new member of our community. Please fellows from Argentina check your computers - you might be the one who is having the virus and accidentally sent it to me.

Re: yes/no tape question
If you have several Z-boxes or LPARS sharing the tape drives...You would have some offline when they are online to other systems. Unless you're in a Sysplex This was where we would get bit. The TSM server wasn't on the 'production' LPAR and the operator would vary the drives offline and online to the production LPAR leaving only 1 or 2 drives for TSM. Plus DFSHShsm was on this LPAR...primary and secondary space management took up drives... Even if you have only those physically attached drives defined in HCD,you can end up with tape drive allocation due to other processes and users using the drives. Unless you can dedicate drives and an LPAR/Z-box just to TSM, there's always the possibility of a drive not being available.

Re: Incremental full backups
Jean-Baptiste, Just 5 tapes?? Well... as it seems to be so little data then (at most 100Gb), why use TSM? I think TSM is overkill in your case; maybe you should try Backup Exec instead? Besides, as someone else already pointed out, please refer to the archives (www.adsm.org); there have been many discussions along the lines of your problem.

Re: Incremental full backups
The simplest way is to do full backups everyday and set your expiration to 7 days (Hopefully this will fit on 5 tapes). Remember you should also backup the DB from time to time!

Re: problem with tape library on solaris
The devc mount limit is drives.. there's no stuck tapes and I've even stop/started the tsm server.. funny thing is it checks in tapes fine and does an audit library fine and checks out tapes fine. That indicates the drives work fine. It just kicks out that msg when you try to migrate or do db backups or somehow use the tapes. I've got a ticket open with Tivoli support and level 2 is having me do some traces. Doesn't look like there's anything wrong with the config itself.

Jean-Baptiste, I would recommend you to read the redbook Tivoli Storage Management Concepts. I hope this book would help you to change your mind. What you ask can be done but is against the TSM principles and will ruin many of its benefits. Nearly every newbie on this list is asking this question so spend few days and have a look at the book.

Re: Incremental full backups
I agree with Rick. If you're going to use TSM, start by reading the Concepts manual so you understand it. TSM is not a full plus incremental backup system! We know that's hard to believe, because most of us have been there, but you won't be happy or effective with TSM until you understand it's concepts well. Once you do, perhaps with some help from the folks on this mailing list, you'll be able to use TSM to provide the protection you need. Hope this helps, wayne Wayne T.

Re: Lotus Domino TDP Backups
From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of I am running TSM 4.2.0 and one of my nodes is a Domino Server on Windows 2000. I am running TDP for Lotus Domino to do backups of our Domino databases and mail files. What is the best way to go about doing monthly backups for these databases. I have been using backupsets instead of archiving because it blows up the db. Then now I find out that you cannot restore Domino Databases from these backupsets. Any recommendation is welcome. Why are you running monthly backups? Don't you run nightly backups already? Keep in mind that the TDP for Domino does not do a full backup of every file on every backup. It backs up the full file the first time, and then only backs up the logs for each file. The file itself will never be backed up in its entirety until the file is assigned a new database ID by Domino. (This usually happens only when: 1) Domino is stopped and restarted, or 2) the file is defragged or reorganized.) If you have a legal need to do a monthly snapshot, your best bet is to shut Domino down and run the regular b/a client to back up the cold data files. -- Mark stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED])

search in q actlog

Re: search in q actlog
The search option does not allow for this, but the select command does allow you to do anything you want. If you make the select a script or macro you can just about create your own 'q actlog' command with variables as input. These are the fields you can search on: DATE_TIME: MSGNO: SEVERITY: MESSAGE: ORIGINATOR: NODENAME: OWNERNAME: SCHEDNAME: DOMAINNAME: SESSID: SERVERNAME: This is a sample select statement to do what you want. select * from actlog where (lower(message) like '%error%' or lower(message) like '%fail%') and date_time current_timestamp - 2 hour This one generates output more like the q act command: select cast(date_time as char(16)), message as Message from actlog where (lower(message) like '%error%' or lower(message) like '%fail%') and date_time current_timestamp - 2 hour Paul D.

Re: Incremental full backups
J-B, The best description of TSM is that it is a full backup that is incrementally updated each time you run a backup. You can force a full backup by using a mode=absolute in the management class copy group when ever you want to re-backup everthing regardless. The other alternatives are backupsets and the selective command. However, the key is understanding TSM is a storage management tool that does backups and recoveries as needed. It is not just a backup tool. TSM's philosophy has a business data retention orientation. If you have paper documents you don't just keep every 7th revision to it, you keep them all until they have reached an expireation based on length of time or number of back revisions. TSM does exactly that. The issue is the incremental forever misnomer that TSM gets. First of all, it is not incremental in the sense of any other backup product. Secondly, it is not forever, it is based on your policies for reclaimation and other techniques you can use. Read some of my other responses on this subject at www.adsm.org. Paul D.
