Re: backup db2 on ms cluster (active/active)

2010-10-13 Thread TSM

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

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.

Kind regards,

Markus

TSM V6.1 Upgrade

2010-10-13 Thread BrentFortune
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.

Markus,

I am not sure of the context of your question.
Can you please clarify?
Are you referring to snapshot?

Thanks,

ERROR_STATE for volumes

2010-10-13 Thread Grigori Solonovitch
TSM 5.5.4.1 under AIX 5.3-12-01.

Could somebody explain me meaning of ERROR_STATE=YES in table VOLUMES?
What is relationship between ERROR_STATE and read/write errors for volumes?

Thank you very much in advance.

Grigori -

My understanding is that ERROR_STATE is set Yes when the volume suffers what is 
termed a permanent I/O error, where retries (as reflected in READ_ERRORS, 
WRITE_ERRORS) cannot get by the problem spot on the tape.  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.

Re: TSM V6.1 Upgrade

2010-10-13 Thread Hana Darzi
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?

Good Luck,
Hana

Re: Tsm archiving or HSM

2010-10-13 Thread Bill Boyer
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!

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).

Does the archiving function allow archiving files based on last reference
date or is that what TSM HSM is for ?

Linux TSM - permission changes

2010-10-13 Thread Rhuobhe
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

Re: Linux TSM - permission changes

2010-10-13 Thread Skylar Thompson
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.
