Re: Deleting Volumes on Copy Storage pool
Assuming that you have a valid copy of all data on the copy pool volume stored in one of your primary pools, it should not. Normally, you would always have all data in your primary pools; the main exception to this would be if you had a primary pool tape/disk go bad and you had not yet restored the primary pool data from the copy pool. --Todd Sabar Martin Hasiholan Panggabean wrote: Dear All, I have one question, if we create copy pool and if we delete the volume inside the copy pool.

OS/390 or z/OS as Tivoli Clients
Hi, Is it possible to setup z/OS as a client of TSM server for AIX? The goal is backing up files as well as DB2 backups from mainframe while TSM server is installed on AIX. My doubt comes from the different storage standards of mainframe and open systems such as FICON and Fibre Channel. If yes, is it free to add mainframe to an existing TSM solution? (I'v read somewhere that Tivoli Data Protection for DB2 is included in DB2) Regards, Mehdi Salehi
Re: Is TDP for Oracle LAN/Server free?
On Thursday 05 February 2009, Mehdi Salehi wrote: Hi, Correct me if I am mistaken: 1- Tivoli Data Protection for Oracle (TDPO) sends RMAN backup to storage pools via SAN (it is LAN-free). It depends. It is the TSM API (not the normal TSM backup client) that receives the data for rman. It sends the data over the LAN or the SAN to the TSM server depending on how you configure it. 2- LAN-free mechanism of TDPO is automatic, as long as the TSM and Oracle server are on the same SAN. I mean, there is no additional configuration needed to enable LAN-free cabability. No, you need to configure the TSM API for SAN based backup. Also some configuration on the SAN and TSM server must be done. A SAN backup is also going directly to tape. 3- RMAN does not affect the Oracle server CPU usage and I/O activity. No, the data has to be written and processed so there is extra CPU usage and lots of extra (read) I/O activity. Stef

Do not use INCLUDE/EXCLUDE to accomplish this for a given node. Otherwise when you run the incremental backup that includes the .pst files, they will be backed up (if changed). Then when you run the incremental backup that excludes the .pst files, the existing backup versions will be expired on the TSM server, subjecting them to VERDELETED and RETONLY settings. It is never a good idea to bounce back and forth between including and excluding files like this. If you really need to back the files up in this fashion, you can use separate options files as you describe, but make sure each uses a unique node name. This makes restore slightly more complicated in that you'll need to remember to run the restore for both nodes. A (perhaps) simpler approach would be to just let the other files backup also back up .pst files (if it can), then schedule a separate backup to run later that targets the *.pst files specifically.

Oracle TDP restore performance
All, This is a question similar to one that was recently posted but never quite answered: http://www.mail-archive.com/adsm-l@vm.marist.edu/msg79786.html We have a user who backs up Oracle databases on AIX 5.3 using RMAN and the TDP 5.4 to a TSM 5.3 server. He uses 12 RMAN channels to back up a few hundred GB database to a TSM disk pool in ~1 hour. A restore of the same data takes 7 hours even though the data stays on disk and RMAN is told to use 8 restore channels. A q session on the TSM server during the restore shows only 1 restore session for the node. Our first thought was to increase the ResourceUtilization option on the client and MaxMountPoint option for the node on the TSM server. However, the Linux-UNIX TSM client manual states that If all of the files are on disk, only one session is used. There is no multi-session for a pure disk storage pool restore. Anyone have any hints or tips on how to speed up a pure disk Oracle RMAN/TDP restore? Is the solution that we should flush the db backups to tape in order to be able to make use of ResourceUtilization and MaxMountPoints settings? John Bremer LANS LLC, Tivoli Backup
Re: Can mixed incremental/selective backups be used to consolidate offsite data?
Adrian, We mostly use collocation by group for this issue, but we have upon occasion done as you suggest and have run a selective to consolidate a particular client's data. We have also renamed filespaces which forces a full incremental. When we do this, we include the date (as in \\mynode\c$_20090205) so we can look back after a couple of months and discard the old filespace.
