Re: Need experiences with TSM 5.2.x upgrade on z/OS
Joe, at the moment we are migrating from 5.1.6.3 to 5.2.1.1 (straight!). We had a performance issue which you can fix with a ZAP (APAR PQ80211). If you upgrade without doing the cleanup backupgroups on 5.1.7.3 (or later) first, the TSM-Server will do it itself after upgradedb. This process cannot be stopped and used a lot of CPU (before the ZAP). Now with the ZAP it ran between 30min and 45min. on our 16GB Databases. The 5.2.1.1 code seems to be stable but we have the garbage char. problem which will be fixed in I think 5.2.2! hope this helps, regards Joachim Stumpf - Original-Nachricht folgt - We're preparing to upgrade our TSM 5.1.6 server to 5.2.x.

Urgent! Need help to get space in TSM-library
I need your help!!! Urgent, I have no space in my second library... We have 2 TSM-server, both on AIX 4.3.3. The first Server is on TSM V 4.2.2.6 and second Server is on TSM V 4.2.4.0. On both server are librarys attached. Three steps to backup the clients. 1. backup the client to SSA-disks on the first server 2. migrate this data to the first library 3. backup stg for copy data from the first library to the second library on the second TS-server Now I have a big problem with the space on the second server. I can delete some data on the first server and run exp inventory and I get more space in the library. It runs fine. But I get no space on the second server and now the library is full. I search in this mailing lists and find some hints for 1. audtitdb fix=yes 2. cleanup backupsgroups Can this help?? Best regards, Frank Mueller

Re: Anyone done BMR on Linux??
not so long ago i developed a bmr solution for linux. I did the following Dow loaded the superrescue cd ( a redhat 7.2 live cd). Then customized this cd (deinstalled stuff you don't need and install stuff you do need) In my case i installed the tsm client and webmin. Recompiled the kernel to include some network drivers/scsi we have in our servers. Then recompile the cd and burn it. (instructions do come with the cd) We have already scripts running on the clients which collect system info sand send this to a central email address. This includes partitioning information. When a machine dies (or for testing) 1 - grab another piece of hardware, the more equal the better but it is ok to have something different in most cases depending on your situation 2 - grab the system info from the to be restored machine 3 - boot the new hardware from the rescue cd 4 - recreate partitions etc 5 - restore your data from tsm (you have the client installed on the rescue cd) you only have to change the nodename in the dsm.sys file .You can use the data from the standard backup (no image backup needed) 6 - adjust some stuff in the config files if other hardware (like scsi to ide ) 7 - reinstall lilo or grub (using chroot) 8 - make some dirs (initrd and proc) 9 - reboot i tested it and it works pretty good for redhat and suse.(on software and hardware raid) To rebuild a machine it takes approx 30 min human intervention, the data restore time will vary ofcourse. You will need good understanding of the linux os.

It's much faster than using server-to-server communication, because with server-to-server, you have to transmit the data via TCP-IP.

Also, do I have to have the exact same management classes defined on the server that will import the data or can I reassign a new management class name to the files and directories?

Re: Urgent! Need help to get space in TSM-library
Frank, Presumably, you're first server is writing virtual volumes to the second server rather than directly to the library? Or is the second library a shared library? Presumably, you need to free space on the virtual volumes, not data that was written to the second server? I hope you see why it is difficult to answer your question because you left out too many details which could radically alter the answer. If you're trying to free space in the virtual volumes that the first server wrote on the second server, you will have to run reclamation on the virtual volume storage pool on the first server. You should also have had to run reclamation on your first server in order to gain free space, but you said you only ran expiration. What is virtual volume size on the second server?

Windows 2000 Server service setup
Hi All, I have a client running TSM 5.1 on Win2000 where the TSM Server service got totally messed up. It's a long story how it got that way, but the jist of it is that it appears that the applicatoin of 5.1.7.0 got installed on d:\Program files\tivoli\tsm, when the 5.1.0.0 was in fact in c:\Program files\tivoli\tsm. I think this happened due to using D:\tsm_images to unpack the .exe, so it installed the code on d:? Anyway, the dsmsvc.exe in the Service call referenced c:, and that executable no longer existed. It spit out a message to reinstall the service, first removing it via remove.exe in the console directory, and then reinstalling it via install.exe. The remove worked, but the install fails: install.exec TSM Server c:\program files\tivoli\tsm\server\dsmsvc.exe admin admin Install error - Unknown error. RC: 997 Note that the above failed even after we uninstalled the TSM Server code, and reinstalled 5.1.7.0 and the license files. The DB appears to be upgraded, and fine, as I can run dsmserv from a cmd prompt, and bring up the server. It is just that we cannot reinstall the TSM Server service. I am also concerned that perhaps the TSM software install is a bit messed up, perhaps with some bad registry entries pointing at D:? Any ideas?

Re: Category for Veritas tapes
Are you running CA-1 on the MVS z/OS ! I usually have this scenario when I physically load new tapes but haven't labeled/checked-in the tape to the TSM AIX server. It will keep doing this until they are owned by the AIX system. Is this a new non-mainframe TSM server you are trying to setup that will share a library/ATL ? Need more information !

Re: Copystoragepool on different server - recommended size for Est/Max Capacity (MB)
Bernd, I dont think it really matters - although I would like to be set straight if thats not true. When you set MAXCAP, then the virtual volumes will be created to this maximum size - when the volume gets to this size, a new virtual volume will be defined. When talking to the 2nd tsm server and the first tsm server runs out of data to send to it (because its already completed) or there is break in communication, then the virtual volume will be closed and probably smaller than MAXCAP - it'll never be reopened and appended to. So dont be surprised if you see some volumes that are 0.1 MB in size. Now, smaller values may be good for reclamation reasons, but may result in many volumes being created. ...deon --- Have you looked at the A/NZ Tivoli User Group website? http://www.tuganz.org Deon George, IBM Tivoli Software Engineer, IBM Australia Office: +61 3 9626 6058, Fax: +61 3 9626 6622, Mobile: +61 412 366 816, IVPN +70 66058 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.ibm.com/tivoli ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote on 13/11/2003 10:21:40 PM: Hi, we have the following configuration A primary TSM Server with the primary storage pool on LTO Tapes and a secondary TSM Server with a copy storage pool DLT7000 Tapes.

Within a TSM script, nope, now what you do. To effectively do this, you can schedule an external script that can have some branching/comparison/looping intelligence added, and have this script run TSM command line commands.

Re: Library sharing from a 5.1 AIX 4.3.3.11 TSM server to a 5.2 server on AIX 5.1ML4-ANR9999D smlshare.c
Hello, since you specify that you do library sharing between a TSM 5.1 server and a TSM 5.2 server then this is a problem. As the TSM 5.2 server readme says : * Library Sharing and LAN-Free Upgrade Considerations * Compatibility - Version 5.2 and above of the Server and Storage Agent are not backwards compatible with version 5.1 and below of the Server and Storage Agent when in a Library Sharing or LAN-Free environment. All Servers and Storage Agents in a Library Sharing or LAN-Free environment must be upgraded to 5.2 in order to function properly. So, in other words, you must upgrade the TSM 5.1 server to TSM 5.2 so that both library client and library manager are at TSM 5.2.

Re: TDP for Oracle filespace questions
Dale, Using a different TDPO_FS option allows a better granularity of control. If your databases are static and never going to change configuration, it may be less important - I'm not sure. But if you ever delete a database or move it to another Oracle server, the seperate filespace name allows to you manipulate within TSM more easily. As a practice, I give each significant database it's own tdpo.opt file with it's own TDPO_FS name.

DB2 backups with multiple DB's on one host
I have a customer who has two DB2 databases on one server and I need to back them up with TSM. Is it possible to do this with two separate node names to keep them apart? If so, how would I do this? Since you have to define 3 environment variables specific to DB2 for TSM and one of them points to the dsm.opt file, can I specify two different node entries inside of the opt file? Would it look something like this: SERVERNAME TSM1 COMMMEHOD tcpip TCPBUFFSIZE 512 TCPWINDOWSIZE 128 TCPNODELAY yes TCPSERVERADDRESS 10.82.96.21 NODENAME TIVANAI PASSWORDACCESS generate SERVERNAME TSM1 COMMMEHOD tcpip TCPBUFFSIZE 512 TCPWINDOWSIZE 128 TCPNODELAY yes TCPSERVERADDRESS 10.82.96.21 NODENAME TIVASSI PASSWORDACCESS generate If I do this, how do I specify inside of DB2 which node to use? I know that there is a parameter called TSM_NODENAME that is set inside DB2, but I don't know how to generate the encrypted password since it only grabs the first entry out of the opt file.

HowTo: Direct-to-Tape Backup/Archive using Multiple Drives
I'll spare the details for a quick question: can I cause TSM to use mulitple drives for a direct-to-tape backup/archive? Environment is Win2K with TSM 5.1.8.0 with SAN attached Overland NEO4100 with four LTO2 drives. -- Dwight McCann Computer and Network Technologist, UCSB Info Systems Computing [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://borg.isc.ucsb.edu/dmm/ - office: 805-893-3113
Re: HowTo: Direct-to-Tape Backup/Archive using Multiple Drives
...can I cause TSM to use mulitple drives for a direct-to-tape backup/archive? Fine-grained Collocation choice and MAXNUMMP are the key factors within a session; and multiple parallel sessions going after subdivisions of file systems also help (again, watch collocation, to avoid waiting on a single tape in use by another session). The Technical Guide redbooks nicely explain the various multi-session elements. Richard Sims, BU
Re: TSM, Active Directory, Example dsm.opt File
Paul, I do daily incrementals on my servers. I have not restored a DC yet, but I have successfully restored non-DC server's System Objects files successfully. Only real issue would be to do an authoritative AD restore, where you are exclusively overwriting AD database. Other than that the regular AD restore should be easy, since other DCs in your domain will update the restored DC's db via replication after restore. Check out section 6.2.4 of Redbook sg246141.pdf. It talks specifically about what you want to do. I will be conducting an AD restore before the end of this year as a test. I will share my experience then.

Re: Scheduler service on MSCS cluster
Guillaume, It is very important that you start and enter the password for one server only among the cluster nodes. This will write the password to its registry. Later when you fail over this node via the NT Cluster Administrator the registry password will be entered on the additional node(s). Otherwise there will be different registry passwords on each node(s) and the backups will fail. Khalid B. Khan Network Engineer American Transmission Co.
