Hi there

Is there a TSM LIMIT to the path length of a folder/file structure it

Eg if a Windows system has a path length limit of say 30,000
characters,
does that mean TSM can also back it up without issues?   Is TSM
reliant
upon the path name limitations of the filesystem itself only, or does
TSM have its own length limitations?



There's various doc out there.  It can vary with OS capabilities and
TSM level.  Technote 1192419 is one source of info.  The client
manuals also talk about it, as on page 168 of the 5.3 manual and page
xx of the 5.5 manual.  Ultimately, set up a test case and verify on

This question was asked at one of the web conferences IBM did regarding
TSM 6.1 and the official answer was that this was not supported.  The
supported method to change TSM server platforms is export/import.
Whether or not you can actually get it to work is, of course, a
different issue...

Not doubting the power of the Holiday Inn Express, but in the past I had a 
Windows LAN-free client whose tapes were reclaimed by an AIX TSM server, which 
would leave me to conclude that AIX somehow managed to read the tapes, even 
though they were written with a crayon.  Also AIX did make some off-site copies 
of these LAN-free tapes.

Tapes are written in different formats on different platforms, so the

The answer will most likely be 'sometimes'. There are a few platforms
that will no longer be supported and there will most likely be a
supported upgrade path to a supported platform. eg. windows on itanium
to windows on amd64.

Fw: Export progress

2009-03-11 Thread Mario Behring
Hi Michael,


I am exporting to tapefrom a TDP for Exchange backup made earlier 
todayI need to send the tape away...

Here is the command I am using:

export node vtswprms03 filedata=all devclass=ltoclass2 fromdate=03/11/2009 
fromtime=13:00:00 scratch=YES


I was wondering if I should use filedata=BACKUPACTIVE instead of ALL

The backup is about 157GB and it was a full backup operation issued from the 
TDP for Exchange GUI at the exchange server. It started at 01:07pm I guess

The problem is that nothing seems to be happeningthe output of the q 
process command didn´t show the "Backup Files" part, in bytes.only 
Filespaces and Nodesthat´s why I think that something is wrong...

Re: TSM Library Manager

2009-03-11 Thread Allen S. Rout
The renaming-of-rmts makes me shiver, for what are atavistic reasons,
I guess.

I keep track of the same mappings: "This serial number has this
physical location, and is this drive name on the lib manager".  But I
keep it in a little csv file,


DRIVE0,07892730,460,new
DRIVE1,07892835,470,new
DRIVE2,07892870,480,new
DRIVE3,07892900,490,new
DRIVE4,07892702,100,new
DRIVE5,07892704,101,new
DRIVE6,07892705,102,new
DRIVE7,07892710,103,new

rather than in the ODM.  Maybe it's just "dinking with the ODM" that
frightens me.

Then I've got a script which takes that csv file, looks at the tapes
that are out there, and does e.g.


update path CTRL DRIVE6 srct=server destt=drive libr=3592lib device=/dev/rmt4
update path CTRL DRIVE4 srct=server destt=drive libr=3592lib device=/dev/rmt0
update path CTRL DRIVE0 srct=server destt=drive libr=3592lib device=/dev/rmt6
update path CTRL DRIVE7 srct=server destt=drive libr=3592lib device=/dev/rmt13
update path CTRL DRIVE1 srct=server destt=drive libr=3592lib device=/dev/rmt2
update path CTRL DRIVE2 srct=server destt=drive libr=3592lib device=/dev/rmt3
update path CTRL DRIVE3 srct=server destt=drive libr=3592lib device=/dev/rmt9
update path CTRL DRIVE5 srct=server destt=drive libr=3592lib device=/dev/rmt8

with it.


I can run the same collection of scripts on a new machine, and get the
right device paths for instances on that box.


This is another case where the DB2 behavior will be very pleasant.  We
can finally (virtually) tack on the extra columns we need, so we can
demonstrate their utility.

Re: TDP Exc Backup full to empty tape

2009-03-11 Thread Wanda Prather
Since you are going to send this tape away, I suggest you do the backup to
your regular pool.
Then create an EXPORT tape of that Exchange client.  If you specify the
FROMDATE/FROMTIME parms, you can make sure you only get the latest data on
that tape.  The tape can be sent away and won't cause issues with having a
tape from your storage pool MIA.

A backupset should do that well.  What is it you want that a backupset
will not do?  Not clear to me.
It takes all the Active Data for a client and writes it out to whatever
device class you specify.  It is a database operation though, not an
actual up to the minute client backup.  It makes a set of all the Active
objects that have already been backed up.  There is no communication
with the client.

Re: TDP Exc Backup full to empty tape

2009-03-11 Thread Kauffman, Tom
If there's a disk pool in the chain, migrate it to tape.

Update all tapes in the storage pool with a "filling" status to an access of 
readonly.

Run the exchange backup.

Check the resulting tape out of the library.

You now have a tape with nothing on it but the Exchnage backup; it may be used 
as a paperweight, a hockey puck, or a clay pigeon. It won't be of any use as a 
backup tape without the matching TSM database, a TSM server on the same 
platform as your existing TSM server, and the TSM client software.

(Don't forget to go reset the other tapes to "readwrite").

Hello everybody,
I'm looking for a solution backing up an Exchange 2007 Cluster using TSM.
Either using legacy streaming backup or VSS.
Is there someone in this Forum having setup a working environement and likes to 
share his/her knowledge.

Any help is kindly appreciated

You will not need the DB backup for backup sets.

Any reason for doing this? Tape will not be useable without
corresponding DB back-up tape.

Regards,

Karel

Subject: TDP Exc Backup full to empty tape

Hi list,

I need to perform a full backup from a MS Exchange Server using TDP for
Exchange. However, I need to do it on a empty tape, outside the regular
scheduled backup operations.

Can I do this from the command line? Is there any parameter that I can
use to specify that the data from this particular operation should be
written on a empty tape? I have to send this tape away, with only this
data on it.

I am running TSM Server 5.4, TDP for Exchange 5.3.3 and I have an
automated library.

Thanks in advance.

Mario

You cannot use a backup set.
They are not supported with "TSM API" data.

Use a backup set.  This creates a tape with data already stored in TSM
which can be exported from the library and kept for as long as you wish.
You don't even need TSM to restore the data from the backup set you
create, only the client software is needed and someway to read the tape.
We do this to keep a long term backup of clients we drop from TSM.  I then
manually recycle the tapes per our policy.
