dsmserv.lock and adsmserv.lock empty
Hi all, I am trying to create some stop's scripts for my TSM's. I have found in documentation, and from other people that taking a look for files dsmserv.lock and adsmserv.lock we can find the actual process ID to do kill -9 process_id to stop TSM. But my blocking files are empty, with no content and 0 size... Anyone knows something about this subject ¿? Any help will be appreciate !! Details: TSM Server 5.2.6.3 on solaris 9 Thanks in advance, Ibán.
Re: dsmserv.lock and adsmserv.lock empty
Hi Richard, It is a TSM server that have two instances. Looking at the installation path we found the files dsmserv.lock and adsmserv.lock but the size is 0, and the content is empty when TSM is running. The same is happening with the second instance. But one curious thing is that if we try to launch another TSM from the path's that other TSM exists previously(and is up), it won't let you because the file adsmserv.lock and dsmserv.lock exist - but the content is empty and filesize is 0. The FS got enough free space. In other way, what do you think about killing TSM with kill -9 pid script or a dsmadmc -se=inst -id=admin -pa=admin halt script - with this script someone could find the admin password... :-((( Any comments will be appreciated !! Thanks !!

In Solaris, it is documented as being in /opt/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/, as dsmserv.lock. Note that a zero-length file can be a consequence of a full file system at the time of attempted file creation, so check that. Also check the mtime timestamp on your lock files relative to the time that your server started, to corroborate. Richard Sims
Second TSM Instance
Hi all, I am planning to create a second instance in my TSM on Solaris 9. I have read on the quick reference guide, that I have to export the following environment variables: DSMSERV_DIR DSMSERV_CONFIG To the new path of my second instance. The change will affect to my first TSM instance...¿? What does these environment variables do ¿? Thanks in advance, Regards, Ibán.
Re: Second TSM Instance
Yeah you can create a second instance in windows. But it is done in a different
manner than UNIX... More easy !! You can do it using the MMC.

Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] Second TSM Instance
When we recently started with multiple instances (on aix),, I implemented it by
creating a directory for the each instance that contains the instance specific
files.
/tsmdata/tsminstance/config
I then created a soft link on the dsmserv binary to dsmserv_tsminstance in
the normal tsm bin dir. This way a ps -ef | grep dsm shows the symlink name.
In the config dir are scripts to start/stop the instance. Here is the start
script
for our instance TSM1.The actual tsm log and db are on raw volumes.
The dsmserv.opt and instance is setup to put volhist, dev config, accnt log,
etc, etc in the same directory.

Take the speed you got ex. 100 MBit and divide it with 8 then do you got maximum speed of your bandwidth. (12,5 MB/s) If you run Windows you should probably split it with 2 then you maybe got maximum speed from Windows. If you run compression then will you maybe get some better performance. But again it's hard to really find out exact speed and time you will get. Also the performance is also depending on if you backup to disk or tapepool, activity on the WAN link, also how old your server is and et c.

Hi, Iban - The guiding principle for the major random access server element, its database, is that you give it as many disk accessors (arms, spindles) as you can afford, where RAID striping tends to work best. Partition size is not the issue here, but distribution of I/O. Size the aggregate size to satisfy your current needs, and either create a like reserve, or make your design extensible, to satisfy growth demands. Disk storage pools are also random access, but with much larger unit write sizes, so spreading I/O is not as much a factor, and sizing tends to be large. The Recovery Log is essentially a sequentially written area, so spreading I/O is not a factor. Be mindful of I/O path capacity in your planning: having high- performance disks won't help if the path to them is congested. Spread I/O over multiple host adapters, as can be computed from load factors. Some computers have multiple I/O planars (buses), where you would want to avoid concentrating the host adapters in one planar, which would result in needless constriction and imbalance. Much of this is standard computer planning, knowing the characteristics of the I/O to the various TSM areas. And remember that nothing hampers a caching server, such as TSM is in its database handling, like inadequate real memory, so don't skimp there. Richard Sims

happening with other device files...
There are two drives per hba, from a total of eight drives.
I will try to recreate the device files... They are STK 9840B ...
Do you know if these drives have something special at OS Level that must be set

Asunto: Re: [ADSM-L] TSM Blocks Device Files in HP-UX after using it...
Hi Bernaldo,
We also run TSM on HP-UX. I don't recall ever seeing that exact message, but
my guess is you either have a hardware problem with those two devices (or
something along the path to those devices... are they on the same FC adapter or
SCSI bus?),
-- OR --
HP-UX has renumbered the device files. I have had that happen, and I'm not
sure why... To be sure, you should do an 'ioscan -fnC tape' and compare it to
the files in /dev/rmt ('ls -l /dev/rmt'). If the devices have been givien new
instance numbers, I have found that the easiest, surest fix is to delete the
drives and paths from TSM and redefine them. You should also remove any old
unused special files from /dev/rmt by doing 'rmsf -a /dev/rmt/23m' (for
example). That command will remove the definition from the kernel and all of
the special files that were associated with that device... 23m, 23mn, 23mb,
23mnb.

Re: Test before upgrade from 5.2 to 5.3
Hi ! I have done a similar test before. If you want, you can install the actual packages that you have 5.2.6.7 on the test machines You can create volumes with dsmfmt command for log and db. You will need the same or more space for the TSM database. Then you must format those volumes using the loadformat command. Then use a backup of your TSM database and restore it on the new machine. You can create a file devclass to do the backup if you have enough space, then copy it to test machine and do the restore. after that I do not know if AIX upgrade is like solaris or hp-ux upgrade but you will have to deinstall the old packages and install the new ones (5.3.3). I think on AIX, perhaps you will not have to delete the old packages... do not know ;- Then run your server with solaris: dsmserv hp-ux: dsmserv -upgradedb Ibán Bernaldo de Quirós Márquez Technical Specialist cell: + 34 659 01 91 12 Sun Microsystems Iberia -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager on behalf of Otto Chvosta Sent: Tue 25/07/2006 15:51 To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] Test before upgrade from 5.2 to 5.3 Hi ! I'm a TSM newbie and going to migrate our TSM server (AIX) from level 5.2.7.3 up to 5.3.3.

Re: Advantages of having backup by versioning...
Thanks !! If I have well understood... the principal advantages are: 1- To do the same job, the number of drives to use, is less than doing a traditional backup method. 2- quickly restore 3- saving in media But do we have a best practices document that explain these three factors ¿? thank you for your help !! Regards, Ibán Bernaldo de Quirós Márquez Technical Specialist cell: + 34 659 01 91 12 Sun Microsystems Iberia -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager on behalf of Andy Huebner Sent: Fri 14/07/2006 16:10 To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] Advantages of having backup by versioning... My 2 cents worth. (Actual exchange rate will vary) Using TSM's method of data storage we have about 3 bytes of data on tape for every byte on a server. When we used a traditional backup method, we had almost 9 bytes of data on tape for every byte on a server. The available dates to recover to are about the same. We realized a real savings in media. Moving from a weekly full to the always incremental allowed us to have fewer tape drives to complete the same work. Our full backups required nearly 24 hours to complete, we no longer have to plan for a large weekend run. Doing a restore with a traditional backup method means you restore a full backup then up to 6 incremental backups, this can result in the same file being written 7 times. TSM will restore each object only once. If TSM is properly used this can save a great deal of time during the restore, if it is not properly setup it can cost a great deal of time due to tape mount waits. The downside is we no longer have 9 copies of an object on tape, we only have two, so in theory the odds of losing an object due to bad tapes is larger, but it is still a number starting with a dot and some zeros.

errno=11 with EDT, ACSLS, TSM
Hi world, I am experiencing some problems ocasionally with the dismount of the volumes coming from TSM. It happens with the reclamation process, and yesterday with the backup of the databases. It seems that TSM finish his operations normally and close the volume, but the process fails in the dismount of the volume because EDT could not dismount the volume because the tape drive seems to be accesed at this time. So this operation fails, EDT could not dismount the volume and returns errno=11... The scenario is a TSM 5.2.6.3 with EDT 7.3.1.1 and ACSLS 6.0.1 server working to a powderhorn. Did someone know something about these problems ¿? Thanks in advance !! Best Regards, Ibán.
