Unfortunately my experience is that should you switch to a different solution, you will just end up with different issues and probably the same complaints about the support. That said I am in a pretty similar environment running OS390 2,10 and TSM server 4.2 2 and our performance is reasonable. So if you were having your severe memory leak problems back when you were at 4.2.2 the problem may be more site specific. John Thomas Denier [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 01/31/2003 04:51:35 PM Please respond to ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: (bcc: John Naylor/HAV/SSE) Subject: TSM support issues We have a 4.2.3.2 TSM server running under OS/390. We expect to add more TSM clients, and the workloads on two other mainframe applicatios are increasing. The mainframe is already short of real memory, and is heading rapidly for shortages of CPU capacity and network bandwidth. One of the options being discussed is moving the TSM server to AIX. At least one manager has argued that we should consider migrating to a different enterprise backup solution. One of his arguments is that we are getting poor quality code and poor support. We have been struggling with one or more memory leaks for a couple of months. Patch level upgrades have improved performance somewhat, but have not fixed the problem. We are still finding it necessary to restart the TSM server twice a day to maintain acceptable performance. Back when we decided to upgrade to the 4.2.3.2 level I went to the anonymous FTP server and found a text file referring me to the TSM server README for information on a password protected FTP server. The information was not in the README file, so I sent out a query on this list and opened a severity 2 incident with IBM/Tivoli. I started getting responses from the list in a couple of hours. IBM/Tivoli finally saw fit to contact me after five days. We have since opened another serverity 2 incident for the apparent memory leak. It has typically taken days of repeated calls to get administrative responses, such as confirmation that dumps were received. It took weeks to get a substantive technical response. We were recently told that our symptoms match open APAR PQ69840. I got a copy of the APAR description. The alleged match is so poor that I am struggling to convince myself that the claim was a mistake and not a deliberate lie. I welcome any suggestions for rebutting the argument that it is time to look for a product with better code and better support. ** The information in this E-Mail is confidential and may be legally privileged.

backupset management
Dear TSMers, I am using backupsets for remote archiving purposes. As you already now we state retention period while creating them. Is there a method to put them pending state and delete them under my control after this retention period?

Re: Help!!!!!!
check this also ..very close to your problem IC31884: V4.2.1 SERVER CORE DUMPING, ANR7837S ON LOCKCYCLE02 [IMAGE] Abstract V4.2.1 SERVER CORE DUMPING, ANR7837S ON LOCKCYCLE02 [IMAGE] Error description TSM Server V4.2.1 core dumps with ANR7837S Internal error LOCKCYCLE02 detected. The error messages are in the dsmserv.err Trace back in dsmserv.err: ANR7838S Server operation terminated. ANR7837S Internal error LOCKCYCLE02 detected. 0x100085A4 pkLogicAbort 0x100303F0 CheckLockCycles 0x100324C0 TmFindDeadlock 0x100322A4 TmDeadlockDetector 0x10006DB4 StartThread 0xD00081FC _pthread_body ANR7833S Server thread 1 terminated in response to program abort ANR7833S Server thread 2 terminated in response to program abort . The LOCKCYCLE02 indicates that the problem is related to transactions between the storage agent and TSM server. TSM set a waiter flag in the lock request. Situations can occur where the lock request is aborted. The abort causes a LOCKCYCLE02 problem because the deadlock detector woke up and went looking for waiters. Since there is a small window between when the abort code signals the lock waiter (because the mutex is released to allow the receiver to respond), this allowed the deadlock detector to start looking for deadlocks. Since the request had been satisfied by being aborted, there were no locks being waited on (but the flag was still set). Hence, TSM aborted because there was a waiter not waiting on anything. Local fix Set the RESOURCETIMEOUT value in dsmserv.opt to a higher timeout value. (See the administrator reference for more information.) Higher timeout value should allow the locke waiter flag to clear. . Apply fixtest 4.2.1.6 to resolve this problem. Problem summary * USERS AFFECTED: This effect users of Tivoli Storage * * Manager version 4.2.1 and above on AIX, * * NT, SUN, HP and MVS. * * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The TSM server aborts with the * * following * * abort codes: TMLOCK011, TXNLOCK16 and * * LOCKCYCLE02 * * RECOMMENDATION: Install PTF or PATCH when available. * The problem is that the a lock request is aborted by the resource manager. The resource manager does not remove the waiter from the list of waiters. When the transaction is aborted (TXNLOCK16), deadlock detector looks for a deadlock (LOCKCYCLE02) or a the next waiter is being granted the lock (TMLOCK011), the server abends. Problem conclusion This problem has been corrected. Circumvention The current workaround this problem is to prevent the resource manager from aborting lock requests. This can be done by setting the RESOURCETIMEOUT in the DSMSERV.OPT file to a higher value like 100. The option applies to all TSM servers and storage agents even though it is documented only for Windows.

The thing that DRM does for you is to manage the movement of which carts to send offsite and which ones to bring back because they have been reclaimed. I think that's right. John. Hi, I am trying to understand DRM concept especially the reclamation part. As the volumes become FULL they will be reclaimed when the data is low (define in pool's RECLAIM value) even if they are offsite copies. The primary pool volumes onsite will be used and reclaimed EMPTY copy pool volumes will be returned. Now my point comes. I have a schedule to backup primary pool every day to copy pool. I have one FILLING volume everyday to send to offsite. Then, there will be 20 volumes offsite (with FILLING status, and very little data on it) What is the DRM's solution to reclaim such volumes? Is it to bring them onsite and use MOVE DATA command?

It basically says that for onsite volumes, reclamation usually happens when status=FULL and when the percent reclaimable is greater than the stgpool's reclamation percentalge.

Re: v4.2.2.2 - problems with expire inventory
Hi Everybody, I am very disappointed with 4.2.2 patch levels. I upgraded to 4.2.2.1 and saw the worst version I have ever seen. I think we all should stick to 4.2.2.0 for a time or upgrade 5.1.x.x Regards, Burak [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 15.05.2002 17:24 Please respond to ADSM-L To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: v4.2.2.2 - problems with expire inventory On our well-behaved and moderately loaded system, I am not seeing a problem with anything in v4.2.2.2 (AIX 4.3.3). However, on the more 'abused' systems, ones that are constantly migrating and have users on them all the time, the expiration hangs whenever there is a migration, reclamation or move data going on. Simultaneous expiration and migration wasn't a problem on the well-behaved server. I am letting one run with a migration right now to see if it eventually resolves itself (deadlock?). Right now, it's going on 15 minutes and has locked up the other migration process. I'm not sure if backups to the disk pool are affected yet. At 30 minutes or so, I'll halt the server, restart and call the problen in. Gretchen Thiele Princeton University

private volumes
Hi, How can I determine expired volumes to check-in or private volumes that has no data in them? I ask this because I sometimes can not follow-up expired volumes so I can not easily find which ones were expired and should be check-ed in to my library. This also includes check-ed in private volumes that no data in them (can be changed to scracth) Any ideas to automize these things other than DRM? Regards, Burak

client acceptor question
Hi, Sorry if this is a stupid question. I am using scheduler service for my clients for a long time and I do not have too much trouble with them. Today I read that Tivoli recommends to use client acceptor. Some of my clients have limited memory so using it can help me. (or at least I want to use it) I tried to use it on my client and installed the service (client acceptor with managedservices schedule option) but the backup never started. Now I am confused with this 3 services: scheduler, client acceptor and remote agent. Can anybody tell me simply what are their purposes briefly? Regards, Burak

database problem (resolved)
Hi Everybody, I solved my problem about TSM database which seems small but occupies big size. The solution was following: I create /dev/mt0 device for my 8mm external tape (DO NOT USE things like /dev/rmt0 like you see on AIX--- lsdev -Cc tape ). Because people said that manual libraries are defined just in this way (I didnt know because I see automated ones) Later I used the following commands: ./dsmserv unloaddb dev=8mmclass scratch=yes ./dsmserv loadformat 1 /adsm/recovery_log/reclog.dsm 3 /adsm/database/datafull1_m /adsm/database/datafull2_m /adsm/database/adsm_db09 ./dsmserv loaddb dev=8mmclass vol=mbt2 Now my database is defragmented.

Re: Monthly Backups, ...again!
Hi, Why dont you think of backupsets? They do not require database usage and easy to use?

Bill, Your arguments are excellent, and I have one large client dealing with the health records issue --- they need to save patient records for 32 years; we are liking the export solution, once a year, for those nodes (in order to control TSM db size) -- and, continue storing their data in archive storage so we have access to all versions generated, then (AFTER THE FACT) deleting extra versions from each month --- save 2 or 3, delete the rest from archive storage, using a smart script in concert with the dba's technique of naming the files being stored. However I only know ONE (simple) way to accomplish the desired, stated results --- month-end snapshot kept for X months or years; ie, a backupset of the desired file systems on specific nodes. The limitation of this solution is it only captures files in backup storage; you need a different answer for database backups stored in archive storage -- my DBA's love using archive storage, and I have no argument against it, as they only care about time (have no need or interest in counting versions, etc), and they must save daily backups for 4-14 days, weekly's for 6 weeks, monthly's for 6-15 months, etc. If you have a method that allows you mark the currently active versions of backup files with a different retention than others, I think it would be new news to most of us... please share.

There is a good reason it keeps coming up: legitimate business requirements. The suits (auditors, IRS, corp counsel, HIPAA, etc) demand to be able to be able to reproduce any datum at given intervals for given durations. Most often, that translates to restoring files that may change every day to month end state for somewhere between 1 and 7 years. Sometime they can identify the kinds of data they want, but it is expensive to accurately identify the list of all files/directories required, so usually you get a vague wave to save everything. And of course, it's their data, not yours, they have a right to keep as much as they want. Telling them that TSM doesn't support their requirement just invites other software vendors in the door since *they* handle this particular requirement with ease (on paper). The number of days you can reasonably keep in an incremental backup usually doesn't extend to forever. Archives sometimes don't cut it, either in their traditional form or the instant form. You can't stand to move that much data or use that many tapes - that's why you went incremental forever in the first place. I really just to do some operation that marks the current active version with a longer guaranteed retention, without changing the retention of anything else. I don't want to restart the perennial discussion of truly long term archival storage. It's reasonable to expect a backup system to maintain internal compatibility for 7 years, and there are techniques for migrating the data to newer media.

The problem is, as you use the system it tends to loose slots. We have been running our 3583 for almost a year and I can count on one hand the times that we have been able to use all 60 slots. Since we are reaching capacity and need all 60 slots, plus some other issues (See results of adsm.org search results for 3583) we have opened a crit sys ticket which has resulted in a firmware upgrade for the changer, library, and all drives in our system in addition to a complete cartridge holder change for each internal 6 pack cartridge holder to a slightly bigger slot type.

offsite backup
Hi, How can you manage offsite backups without DRM? I have just ideas in mind but I have lack of experience. Is the following right way first day 1) backup the nodes 2) backup copy pools to offsite copy pools 3) backup the database 4) take database backup and copy pools to offsite 5) expire the database backups previous than x days. (for example x=7) next day 1) backup the nodes 2) return some copy copy pool volumes that are not filled as FULL 3) return expired old database volume of the day x+1 as scratch volume 3) backup copy pools to offsite copy pools 4)backup the database 5) take database backup and copy pools to offsite 6) expire the database backups previous than x days. (for example x=7) .etc.
Re: IP change
