Re: Strange dirmc

2012-11-28 Thread Andrew Raibeck
Robert,

This latest information makes me wonder: What exactly is making  you think
that directories are not being bound to the correct management class? So
far, we have not changed anything; but we have demonstrated that TSM is
indeed binding directories correctly to MGLAW.

Notes:

1. With regard to data placement, the management class specifies the
storage pool for the initial data placement. That is, when the object is
backed up, TSM attempts to store it in the storage pool specified by the
DESTINATION (note: if the destination storage pool is full, or if the
object exceeds the maximum object size for the destination, or if the
storage pool is not enabled for write access, then TSM will attempt to
store the object in a successor pool based on NEXTSTGPOOL setting). TSM
server processes such as migration or MOVE DATA can cause the objects to be
put into a different storage pool.

2. When objects are rebound to a different management class, no data
movement occurs. For example, if the object is stored in storage pool
A,rebinding the object to a management class with DESTINATION of storage
pool B does not cause the object to move to storage pool B. However, as
mentioned in (1) above, TSM will store *new* objects in storage pool B.

3. Rebinding occurs when you perform incremental backup on the file system
that contains the objects. For example, if an object in file system /fs1 is
bound to management class MGA, then changing the management class for
that object does not cause an instantaneous rebinding. Rather, the
rebinding occurs the next time you back up /fs1. And as mentioned above,
there is no data movement for existing objects to the new destination.

So going back to my question: what is making you think the objects are not
being rebound to MGLAW? If you are performing incremental backups of the
file systems in question, then you can use dsmc query backup with the
-dirsonly option to see which management class the directories are bound
to, as you did for the test case. If you are simply looking at the storage
pool where the directories are stored, then this alone is not an indicator
of incorrect binding.

Client 6.4 installation causing Win Server 2012 to restart?

2012-11-28 Thread RonHextall
Hello all,


I started the installation of TSM Client version 6.4 on one of our new Windows 
Server 2012 servers and went to do other things while waiting on the 
installation to finish.
When I went back to the server after about ~5 minutes I realized that the TSM 
Client installation hade restarted the machine, without installing the client 
yet, causing angry phonecalls from concerned users.

I figure that the installation of the prerequisite Microsoft packages is the 
reason behind this? Has anyone here experienced this before? I've searched 
through various installation notes from TSM regarding the 6.4 client but I 
havent really found anything indicating this.

I have installed 5 or 6 clients on other Windows Server 2012 machines and 
numerous of older TSM clients on other servers without experiencing this 
before. The concerned server is used as an TS-server.

You could start by getting a list of nodes that are set to either
COMPRESSION=CLIENT or YES and those with DEDUPLICATION=CLIENTORSERVER. The
default is SERVERONLY. Those would be good candidates to start with. You
can't do client-side dedup without setting the node attribute.

Re: Client 6.4 installation causing Win Server 2012 to restart?

2012-11-28 Thread Vandeventer, Harold [BS]
I had heard that a late 6.3 version client would force a reboot, apparently 
following the prerequisite MS packages.

A co-worker had installed 6.3.x on a file server (Win Server 2008) and didn't 
know it was going to boot while he went for a coffee refill during the install. 
 He had several calls from staff that got clobbered due to the reboot.

But, this morning I installed the 6.4.0 client without any reboot on Win Server 
2008.  The client installer DID install the Microsoft packages.  The machine 
happens to also have TSM Monitoring/Admin 6.3.1 installed.  Perhaps the 
Microsoft packages were already there, and updated, which maybe doesn't force a 
reboot???

Also 6.3 clients can cause a reboot during installation. I'm not sure why.
I see it with approx. 1 of 10 installs where the prerequisite needs to be 
installed om servers who are in use. Never seen the reboot on new and clean 
windows installs, so I assume it has something to do with other software icw

Thank you all for your sage advice.

I am able to find the servers that are using compression, unfortunately though, 
some of my client Admins have let it slip that they are not always using 
compression when they are setting up encryption, despite our best efforts to 
guide them that way.

Anyone else know a way to find nodes only performing client encryption?

Subject: [ADSM-L] Who is performing Client Based Encryption and Compression

Fellow TSM Admins,

We are in the process of bringing VTLs into our TSM Environment.  In order to 
take full advantage of deduplication features on the VTL we need to go after 
the clients that are performing client based encryption and compression.  With 
that in mind, does anyone know an easy way to tell which clients are using 
these features?

Thanks,
Chad Harris


Re: Client 6.4 installation causing Win Server 2012 to restart?

2012-11-28 Thread Maurice van 't Loo
Also 6.3 clients can cause a reboot during installation. I'm not sure why.
I see it with approx. 1 of 10 installs where the prerequisite needs to be
installed om servers who are in use. Never seen the reboot on new and clean
windows installs, so I assume it has something to do with other software
icw the prerequisites.

 Hello all,


 I started the installation of TSM Client version 6.4 on one of our new
 Windows Server 2012 servers and went to do other things while waiting on
 the installation to finish.
 When I went back to the server after about ~5 minutes I realized that the
 TSM Client installation hade restarted the machine, without installing the
 client yet, causing angry phonecalls from concerned users.

 I figure that the installation of the prerequisite Microsoft packages is
 the reason behind this? Has anyone here experienced this before? I've
 searched through various installation notes from TSM regarding the 6.4
 client but I havent really found anything indicating this.

 I have installed 5 or 6 clients on other Windows Server 2012 machines and
 numerous of older TSM clients on other servers without experiencing this
 before. The concerned server is used as an TS-server.

Re: Who is performing Client Based Encryption and Compression

2012-11-28 Thread Paul Zarnowski
I am not aware of any way to detect client based encryption via a server-based 
query.  However, you can see this from a client-side CLI query (DSMC Q BACKUP), 
so there must be information somewhere that reflects this.

For anyone considering SUR pricing (capacity-based), you might consider looking 
at TSM-based deduplication instead of VTL-based deduplication, as your TB 
license requirements will be lower.  Or at least, that's what I was told by an 
IBMer describing the SUR pricing model to me.  Granted, you would need a more 
powerful TSM server, but you could offset that cost by purchasing disk less 
expensively than a VTL vendor would charge.

Thank you all for your sage advice.

I am able to find the servers that are using compression, unfortunately 
though, some of my client Admins have let it slip that they are not always 
using compression when they are setting up encryption, despite our best 
efforts to guide them that way.

Anyone else know a way to find nodes only performing client encryption?

Thanks again,
Chad

You could start by getting a list of nodes that are set to either 
COMPRESSION=CLIENT or YES and those with DEDUPLICATION=CLIENTORSERVER. The 
default is SERVERONLY. Those would be good candidates to start with. You can't 
do client-side dedup without setting the node attribute.

I think q actlog begindate=today-ndays msgno=4968 is more efficient.

For compression:

q actlog begindate=today-ndays search=ane4968

Non-zero values mean the client is compressing.

Re: DR scenario

2012-11-28 Thread Alex Paschal

Hi, David.

You can create a replication statistics file from the PTManager
Replication menu.  Open that with Open/ApacheOpen/LibreOffice Calc,
and compare source time for last sync point against the
last_write_date from the VOLUMES table in TSM.  Any volumes with
last_write_date later than the last sync point require audit vol fix=yes.

Did that cover what you needed?

Anyone doing non-TSM replication to their DR site, e.g. ProcTier IP 
replication?  If so, I would be interested in talking to you about how you do 
DR recovery, especially how you sync up what tapes got replicated vs what your 
recovered TSM DB knows.
