Re: backup db2 on ms cluster (active/active)
hello, if you want to backup db2 on microsoft cluster, you have to work with proxynode and proxyagent relationship grant proxynode target=proxytarget agent=clusternodeA grant proxynode target=proxytarget agent=clusternodeB every db2 database which can failover to another clusternode has to be updated like db2 update db cfg for sample using vendoropt '-asnodename=proxytarget' db2 update db cfg for sample using LOGARCHMETH1 TSM:DB2 logarchopt1 ’- asnodename=proxytarget’ clusternodeA = DSMI_CONFIG on node A ClusternodeB = DSMI_CONFIG ion node B you can read more on SC12-4282-02 with best regards stefan savoric

Hi Del, is there any movement into adding support for Domino, e.g. running on N-Series? I don´t think this is an exotic configuration. I would be glad to get rid of my home-grown scripts to achieve the offload backup via proxy node.

TSM V6.1 Upgrade
Hi All, i'm planning to upgrade a TSM V5.5 Server with 2 instances of TSM to TSM V6.1. Does anyone know if there are any limitations in running 2 TSM V6.1 instances on the same machine? I ask this due to the fact taht in DB2 the TSM DB name is always TSMDB1. +-- |This was sent by bre...@puleng.co.za via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +--

ERROR_STATE for volumes

At that point the volume is rendered readonly, and the administrator needs to deal with it. Sometimes, the problem is just a dirty read/write head on the tape drive. Richard Sims
Re: TSM V6.1 Upgrade
Hello, There you can define more then one instance on the same host. The db2 tsm dB's crated in the TSMDB1 per instance. You have to use -k server1 (for instance1) -k server2 (instance2) I have windows with 3 instance on it. Why you do not upgrade to 6.2 version?

Re: Tsm archiving or HSM
Just one comment...there are actually 2 copies of the migrated file's data. 1 is the backup copy and the other is the migrated copy. You can configure HSM to make sure there is a backup copy of the file before migration. But since you're going on last referenced date, then probably that file was backed up when it was created or last updated. The most recent versions of HSM and the B/A client have more knowledge of each other than pre 5.5 versions. The B/A client will recognize the stub file and not back that the most recent backup copy of the file. When you restore that file from the B/A client possibly due to someone deleting the stub file, or a crash, you have the option of restoring the file data or just the stub. Just make sure that when you configure the policy for the HSM on the TSM server you change the archive retention to NOLIMIT and activate it! Believe me it's messy when TSM starts expiring the migrated archive data when there are still stub files on the filesystems. Been there...done that...and lots of teeth marks in my arse! -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ads...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of Prather, Wanda Sent: Tuesday, October 12, 2010 9:22 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: Tsm archiving or HSM There is nothing built in to TSM that does archiving based on last reference date. You can certainly write your own scripts to select the files and archive based on that. There are larger difference between archiving and HSM. Archives: -the same file can be archived multiple times on different dates -an archive file may be left in the directory, or removed from the directory after archive -to retrieve an archived file, you must deliberately open the TSM client and select the file for retrieve HSM: -There is only 1 copy of an HSM-migrated file, the migrated copy. -HSM leaves a stub file in the directory when it migrates the file out to TSM storage. Any attempt by the user to reference that file triggers an automatic recall (which has implications for your TSM hardware setup). -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ads...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of Tim Brown Sent: Tuesday, October 12, 2010 5:14 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] Tsm archiving or HSM Does the archiving function allow archiving files based on last reference date or is that what TSM HSM is for ?

Linux TSM - permission changes
If I change the permissions on a Linux directory containing lots of data (say 1TB), will this change trigger a brand new backup? I know it does in Windows and does not in AIX, just not sure about Linux (RHE). Thanks +-- |This was sent by mlit...@med.miami.edu via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +--
Re: Linux TSM - permission changes
No, it will only update the metadata in the TSM database. The impact this will have on backups depends on the number of files being changed.
