Re: how to tell how my DB is being backed up
DB backup is normally done using admin schedules. Check with Q SCHED T=A F=D, you may find an admin sched which runs BACKUP DB command. Q VOLHIST T=DBB will display the database backup volumes.

I think that there should be an easier way than this, but this is what I have so far select distinct 'query script',name,'f=raw outputfile=',name from scripts scripts.scr This gives you a text file of the format below for every script that you have (you will have to delete a space between outputfile and scriptname) query script scriptname f=raw outputfile=scriptname You can then run this file as a macro/script to output all of your scripts in raw format to an individual text file with the respective script name as the filename. You can then copy these files to your new server. Using find and replace or text editing tools you can slightly modify your generated script from above to the format def script scriptname file=filename Then run this script and it will generate all your scripts on your new server. I have to add that using the select to generate the original script is not my own work, I stole it from a previous posting enquiring how to script a number of move datas, but it is neat.

Re: AW: [ADSM-L] Import Node
We are using MERGEfilespaces=YES option. However, due to large number of files to be imported, actual import is starting much later. TSM is reading from first tape onwards and comparing with the database before it can start the importing of the data. Server is recycled before the data import is commenced. So the import is never getting started.

Re: Encryption Question
Thanks Wanda. But, in case, if ENCryptkey is Prompt, then it can take a different passwords for each backup, and the same password should be supplied while restoring that particular file/object.

Re: Question regarding Administration user ADMIN_CENTER
I got this from : Tivoli Storage Manager Administration Center: Frequently Asked Questions When you install a Tivoli Storage Manager Version 5.3 server, an administrator named ADMIN_CENTER with the password ADMIN_CENTER is automatically created. The health monitor uses this administrator to access the server and obtain health information. Before you can use the health monitor, it must be configured. This consists of setting the default password for the ADMIN_CENTER administrator and optionally adjusting the health monitor refresh interval. This configuration only needs to be done once, regardless of the number of administrators and server connections you add. The new password you specify will be applied to all of the servers that are connected to the Administration Center. By default, the ADMIN_CENTER administrator is locked. For each server connection you add, you can specify whether to unlock the ADMIN_CENTER administrator to enable health monitoring.

Re: Dual write to multiple copy storage pools
You can write to 1 primary *and* upto 10 copy storage pools concurrently. Regards, Ramakrishna Choudarapu -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stapleton, Mark Sent: Friday, September 02, 2005 9:57 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] Dual write to multiple copy storage pools I should clarify my answer. There is no automated way to send initial backups to a primary storage pool (DISKPOOL, for example) *and* multiple different copy storage pools. You can modify a primary storage pool definition to concurrently write to 1 primary and 1 copy storage pool concurrently: upd stg diskpool copystg=offsitetapepool As to whether future release will allow automated writing to multiple copy storage pools: probably not. Why? I have seen dozens of TSM environment; not a single one of them used multiple copy storage pools for the same data. (This is not to say they don't exist; I have just have never seen one.)

Re: server 5.1.9.0 rec log problem - multiple servers?
This could be because of the typo: dsmserv extend log extrareeclogspace 8000 Correct it to: dsmserv extend log extrareclogspace 8000 Regards, Ramakrishna Choudarapu -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Alexander Lazarevich Sent: Tuesday, August 23, 2005 10:54 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] server 5.1.9.0 rec log problem - multiple servers? TSM 5.1.9.0 server on win2K server. I've got a very confusing problem, and our server is totally dead at the moment so I'm in a bit of an emergency. We've been running TSM 5.1.6.5 for 2-3 years, I recently (8 months ago) upgraded to 5.1.9.0, no problems. Last night, we ran out a tapes, and therefor the automatic backup of the database couldn't happen, and therefor the rec log filled up to maximum, and the server died and cannot restart until I increase the size of the log. Easy enough, I've had to do this before, but the standard commands are not working: dsmftm -log D:\tsmdata\server1\extrareclogspace 8000 that works fine, create/formats the new volume, but then: dsmserv extend log extrareclogspace 8000, dies with: C:\Program Files\tivoli\tsm\server1dsmserv extend log extrareeclogspace 8000 ANR0900I Processing options file c:\program files\tivoli\tsm\server1\dsmserv.opt ANR7800I DSMSERV generated at 10:06:54 on Mar 18 2004.

ANR0991I Server shutdown complete. The problem is, we don't run two servers. We've got one server, that's all we've ever had, that's all we want. And this brings me back to something I've noticed since I first installed the server, which I thought was normal: In C:\Program Files\tivoli\tsm\ there are two server folders. a server and a server1. In the server folder that's where most of the executables live, like dsmserv.exe and dsmsvc.exe. In server1 folder there are .opt .log and .bat files, among others. But definately, it seems that the guts of the server live in server folder. However, the TSM management console window lists TSM Server1 as the real server, it doesn't even see Server. Whenever I have to deal with the MMC window, which I try to avoid at all costs, it only ever lists Server1, never just Server. As far as I remember, Server and Server1 have always both existed from when I first setup TSM 5.1.6.5 and it seemed wierd to me, but everything worked, so I thought Server1 and Server were somehow intertwinned, but they were basically the same server. Maybe that is wrong, and only now is the problem showing itself. Anyone have an idea? Again, we are down 100% until I can increase the reclog size.
