Agreed. I tell my customers NOT to install OFS unless they have a reason, and only on systems where they know what the reason is. It triggers a LOT of unncessary and pretty unintelligible VSS errors, and is usually doing nothing worthwhile. Look at your TSM daily reporter output on clients without OFS installed, check the missed file details. You'll find that 90% of the files that are missed are in the category of usual suspects. You may want to sit down with a Windows admin and get them to help you identify the missed files. Many will be ntuser.dat or ntuser.log files, or other parts of the user profile. You rarely need backups of these unless you are backing up desktops, and then the profiles are included in teh backup of System State. Most of the rest will be files that are clearly identifiable as DB parts belonging to apps like SQL or Oracle. OFS support does not necessarily give you good backups of a data base, because there is no interface with the DB journal/logs. So even if people THINK they are getting backups this way, you probably shouldn't count on using them - the appropriate solution for DB's is using a TDP client. Once you identify the missed files, you'll usually find there is nothing on the client that needs the OFS support - exception would be a locally developed application. But I still wouldn't count on OFS being the answer, until somebody explains to me how the app works and what kind of backups will give you appropriate restore and DR capability. (ANd then TEST to make sure the restored version is viable.)

Howdy, I recently switched jobs and now am managing TSM in a mostly Windows environment (instead of the Unix world where I am comfortable). A new challenge... anyways On the Windows TSM client, there is the option to install the Open file support and the Image Backup support. Does everyone install these? Does it depend on what kind of DR you might have to do on the windows host? Forgive my Windows ignorance, I've read the manuals and it looks like the upside is the ability to backup open files, but the downside I am seeing is that there seems to be a lot of errors with the way it interfaces with the Windows native VSS service. It also looks like if these are installed and you want to upgrade the TSM client, it requires a reboot of the Windows client to get it done. Nobody wants to reboot a production server to upgrade its backup software. So what is everyone's opinion?: - The Open file support is worth the hassle and should be installed on all TSM clients - The Open file support should

Hi, I agree and I understand that you will have gaps whenever you use periodic archives/backups. But you are actually suggesting via delete filsapce command to aggressivly framgment TSM DB. And to only make one export copy..?? Export volumes are not part of a stgpool and therefore not included in backup stgpool process. Restore would be easy, fast and a straight forward process, will the helpdesk agree with you? Can we keep it simple? For example I use two nodes Y (daily backups) and Y-Monthly.

Archive:(Y-MONTHLY active version * 12 month * (600+200bytes))/1024/1024/1024 ~ 45Gb required db space. Backup: (Y-MONTHLY active version + Y-MONTHLY inactive version * (600+200bytes))/1024/1024/1024 ~ 6,3Gb required db space.

One issue with a monthly/yearly backup/archive is that the changes that occur between events will not be captured. If a file is created on March 3rd and deleted March 25th, a monthly backup/archive that runs on the first of each month will not capture this file. One method of retaining all data that is backed up nightly would be to: - Create the node name of the client reflecting the time period that data is backed up - i.e. docserver-march08. - At the end of each time period, change the node name to the new time period docserver-April08 - run a export node docserver-march08 to tape and then put that tape in a safe place with associated recovery documentation. After the data has been successfully exported, delete all files associated with the exported node docserver-march08. - Repeat for each time period. Your database will remain manageable. You will maintain daily recovery granularity. You MUST keep the recovery sequence documentation for exports which span multiple media.

Christian, Is the primary tape pool collocated? If not, I'd strongly recommend it (although it's probably too late to help you with this issue). I collocate all of my primary sequential access pools, and control usage with maxscratch and collocation groups. Do you have enough space in your disk pools to do a move nodedata from tape to disk pools in preparation for the generate backupset or export operation? The other option I've used is to define monthly or yearly nodes, with different node names, schedules and retention settings. For example, node_a for the dailys, node_a_monthly, node_a_yearly. It's a nuisance to set up on the client side, but works well once it's in place and avoids database bloat. I think that you're going to have issues doing many archives like that, especially for your anticiptade growth...even if it gets you past the immediate issue.

Other sites have a second instance of TSM that is used for periodic large backups and long-term retention requirements.

I've looked through the dsmsched log on the Vista machine and I'm seeing where it has contacted the TSM server and picked up the schedule name and the action.

The machine is just sitting there between backups; I'm not doing anything on the machine in between. If I open the GUI and tag the c drive for incremental backup it goes out and looks at all the files on the drive and backs up a few dozen files and it done. Just like I would expect it to. If I go to the baclient folder and run dsmc incr from the command line it ends up doing what looks like a full backup. In the last couple of hours I had a scheduled backup run that moved about 8 gigs worth of files. Right after that finished I did a c drive backup from the GUI. It moved a few hundred megs of files. Right behind that I did the dsmc incr. So far it's moved over 4 gig of files and is still running. Anybody got a idea what's going on here? PS, Vista looks good.

Re: Once more Windows vs. AIX server
Hi I couldn't resist to make some minor comments. First one is Linux, not AIX. Second, I think a properly configured Windows server can handle 1,4TB/day. And if they only know Windows I would choose Windows. But you get an opportunity to sell more hours if you choose AIX.. Third, 6MB/s average is not an OS fault. More likely is it a bad design and/or poor hardware. And last, 72 hour to re-install OS and restore DB does not make me think that theese guys know what they are doing. //Henrik -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Paul van Dongen Sent: den 30 augusti 2007 15:01 To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Once more Windows vs. AIX server Hello all, I know this subject comes again from time to time, but I was faced not with the dilemma, but with how to say it: I've got a customer (long time customer, since 4.1) who is planning their upgrade. They are still at 5.2 level, and are going to 5.4.1. They are a Windows shop, and Windows is their choice of TSM Server platform. However, they faced some problems with it: First of all, their servers are getting old (each server is a 2 x PIII 800MHz, connected to a bunch of EXP arrays with various combinations of SCSI disks from 9GB to 36GB). This was good when they started using it, with something like 200GB/day transfers from their client machines. But now, with 900GB/day in a six-hour window, this setup is proving rather slow. Not only to transfer the client data to disk, but migration is also a pain at a 6MB/s average. Needless to say that their library (IBM 3584 with 5 LTO2 drives) is grossly underutilized performance-wise. Second, despite being a Windows shop, they had once trouble when they lost one of the servers, at a remote site, due to a hard disk controller failure. Counting everything from reinstalling the OS to restoring TSM DB, they lost some 72 hours. In conversations with the technical team, we talked about TSM Server on AIX. While their original plan was to get a new Windows machine that could handle their projected 1,4TB/day (in the next 3 years) average, the idea of a AIX machine was well received. Especially when we had about mksysb vs. Windows reinstall, raw devices, overall robustness of the platform and (most important) I/O performance. AND the customer technical team was willing to get through the painful process of exporting/importing historical data into the new server. Not being a pSeries specialist, I know that if you compare the two worlds, a pSeries machine have a LOT more I/O capability than a xSeries counterpart (considering comparable processor power. I don't want to upset anyone here, including the ones who would say that such comparison is absurd). Management had another opinion, however, mainly due to the price difference between the two machines, and I was told to prepare a report stating which would be the key advantages of a AIX machine as a TSM server. I wrote a report including the points mentioned above and some more (I/O performance, raw devices, quick etherchannel, easy expansion as they are targeting a p520, mksysb, LPAR, dynamic reconfiguration) but would like to hear from you if I forgot something really big that could be the point in such a decision.

Re: ASR backup failed
Hi, I guess it is what I have seen on a lot of servers. Dsmc backup systemservices, might work. But dsm backup systemstate|asr will fail due to VSS problems. Even if you list the VSS writers they will most likely be stable, 'vssadmin list writers'. You can try a systemstate backup with Ntbackup, but include ASR info to see if it works, requires a diskette. In most cases it wont work. So you need to check if you have the latest VSS patch installed ex. wmic /node:%1 qfe where hotfixid='KB913648'. There is at least on newer VSS patch out too. If it is not installed, install the patch and reboot. Microsoft wont address VSS issueses without the latest patches installed. Btw, upgrade your TSM client since it will be out of support soon. //Henrik -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pahari, Dinesh P Sent: den 29 mars 2007 04:18 To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: ASR backup failed Hi All, Please see the message below that is reported on the dsmerror.log file.

I've ran the loadformat to format the database and log volumes. After it runs successfully I try and do the load but it complains about the device configuration. I think what is happening is the loadformat is resetting the registry entry for the server instance I'm using. It keeps changing the directory locations of the files from the 'server1' sub-directory back to the base 'server' directory. If I manually edit the registry to point to the correct location of the config files loaddb says I have to format the log/database volumes.

Audit seems OK. One thing is for sure, as always, backup stgpool will be disk to tape... On the other end I´m curious about the Linux system that performs Move data faster than Audit. And have less variance in speed than the Windowsbox. However my main interest was performance of LTO drives and (HP vs IBM drives). I guess our Linux box will outperform the Windows box with adequate hardware. //Henrik -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Salak Juraj Sent: den 22 december 2006 11:44 To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: AW: Performance with move data and LTO3 Hi!

If a block of data is going to expand during compression, the IBM drives will stop compression and write the uncompressed block, which should make them a bit faster. Re tape to tape operations: I have observed the same behavior; tape to tape operations are inexplicably slower than you would expect when the TSM server is on WINDOWS. I have observed this with fibre drives, and SCSI drives, 3590 and LTO. I suspect it has something to do with buffer use, but since Windows provides no tools whatever to measure performance of tape devices or buses with tapes on them, I've never been able to make any other determination. I don't think it is a READ issue with the drives. Try testing using an AUDIT; that just reads the tape and doesn't write anything. I suspect you'll get faster READ times.

When I connect a Sun SL500 with 4 IBM LTO3 (all FC) plug an play finds the drives but not the library. I manually update the library driver to tsmscsi.sys (driver properties in dev. manager).

I miss a couple of things that should be logged... So my questions are: Is the possible to do automated encrypted backups but limit the restore functionality to thoose who knows encryption password? How do I monitor restores on the TSM server in good way. Since the above is not sufficient? (Accounting records??)

For offsite, use a remote filer and SnapMirror. We manage 39 TB of data on NetApp here. We use a local cluster and a remote cluster. The retention is hourly SnapShots for 24 hours and daily SnapShots for 35 days. SnapMirror runs asynchronously at least once an hour over a GB Ethernet to the remote site. We run NDMP backups at the remote site just in case, but meet our RPO and RTO requirements with the SnapShots. SnapShots take TSM out of the picture for these backups and have erased our former biggest headache, backing up millions of small files. Orville L. Lantto Glasshouse Technologies, Inc.

Re: Migrating/moving data from one server to another.
Hi Erik, You can do this in two ways (brief). 1. Setup server-to-server communication between the old and the new server. Do an 'export server' to get all policy information to the new server and redirect all backups to the new hardware. Do exports on all monthly/yearly and archive data to the new server. Daily backps expire. 2.Do a DB restore on the new server. Connect both the new and old library on the new server and start to 'move data' or move nodedata' from L24 to LTO. Last solution seems easiest to me. And you dont need to maintain a second server. //Henrik -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Erik Björndell Sent: den 9 maj 2006 11:31 To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Migrating/moving data from one server to another.

TSM and QoS
Hello, Since most IT departments like the word centralize I wonder how other achieve a centralized TSM enviroment. We have smaller sites with 10-40 servers connected to main office with 20-155Mbit. One way to setup backup and recovery is to attach all servers to a networked storage system. Clone/snapshot the data for a local recovery. TSM handles (historical) backups and archives which are send to the main office over WAN. We can do recovery at the main office for a destroyed office. The tricky thing here is to get all the data over WAN. TSM doesn´t QoS tag the pacakges and TSM is happy to use all available bandwith and all other resources it can lay it hands on. Am I forced to use Manual Hacks in my routers to automaticly prioritize TSM traffic. Or are there any other way to prioritize the traffic?

dsmerror.log is empty after a TSM service (schedule) restart?
Hi I gotta be missing something here, so any help is appreciated. Scheduled backup runs fine and puts some information about skipped files in dsmerror.log.

Re: Upgrade possible downgrade questions.
Hi Farren, Downgarding? You cant if you dont have an DB backup that was taken in the earlier format, 5.1.6.2. I´m not so sure what you are trying to do but...in short. Do: Solaris 7, 5.1.6.2 Migrate all data from disk stgpools and backup DB. Halt Restore Db to the new server, Solaris 9, 5.1.6.2 Connect libraries etc. Define new disk stgpools Verfy and test. If not OK fall back to the old solution. If OK Next week, upgrade to Solaris 9, 5.2.2.7 And yes, format new volumes before you restore your DB. Secondly, dont do everything att the same time ie upgrade TSM and change your hardware. //Henrik -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Farren Minns Sent: den 21 mars 2006 09:51 To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Upgrade possible downgrade questions.

Do I need to physically remove any existing dB and log volumes as well as un-install the software and then re-format them?

Re: export nodes causes TSM server crash
Hi, You confuse me, what are you trying to achieve?

Each month an export of each TSM node with the active backup data will be taken to disk (DS4100 with SATA disks of 250 GB). The disk storage pool that contains the backups is on the DS4100 too. I've scheduled the export of the TSM nodes past weekend with a few scripts. I first tried to launch just one script that took the export in blocks of 15 nodes using the PARALLEL and SERIAL commands. However as the export is started in the background, all of the 75 exporst were started immediately. This causes a TSM server crash. After restarting the TSM server, no error logs are found in the activity log. Except that no more than 16 commands can be started in one PARALLEL statement. The last normal message about the export is written in the log and then the next message are when the server is started again. I've split up then the export myself in a script where the export of 15 nodes was started and 4 administrative schedules were defined that triggered the export of 15 additional nodes every 2 hours later on. The TSM server crashed once more. Is this a know feature when the export of a lot of nodes is started? Am I overseeing some parameters here? Can the export be started in a better way using TSM scripting? An export server instead of an 'export node' for each TSM node is not an option as then the impot of one node would take too much time. thanks in advance, Kurt --- The information contained in this message may be CONFIDENTIAL and is intended for the addressee only.

Re: ASR woes

Now you got problems... But there is BMR software that is made for more advance environment that IBM recommends. Talk to your local IBM rep for more information. Thanks Christian -Ursprungligt meddelande- Från: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] För Paul van Dongen Skickat: den 16 februari 2006 13:45 Till: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Ämne: ASR woes Hello TSMers, or more precisely, the intersection between the TSMers and WINDOWSers I spent the last 24 hours struggling with the ASR bare metal recovery process with W2K3 and TSM. Got some good things, and some strange things which I would like to share/comment, and also seek for some answers. Here's the story: First of all, I used TSM client 5.3.2.2 to backup all disks on the servers, including System State/System Services. Open Files backup also working fine. First machine to be recovered was a test machine with one disk split in two partitions (C: and T:). Restore went file, and ASR recreated my two partitions and restored C:. The T: partition was left empty, but this is a minor problem. After this degree of success, we went for the restoration of a MS Cluster node running SQL Server, on a brand-new IBM xSeries 366. Here begins the real story Problem #1: This machine uses SAS disks and matching RAID controller, for which I had to provide the drivers. When I pressed F6 during text-mode setup, it prompted for the driver, an went on, but then it wouldn't accept the ASR diskette anymore. I finally solved it by integrating the RAID controller driver into the W2K3 CD. Problem #2: The network cards present on the machine (6 in total) are not recognized by the standard Windows setup. After a call to MS's support, I got the answer that only local restores are supported. After many hours and iteractions of burn CD-RW (15 min)/boot the server (20 min) I could get Windows to accept a set of network drivers integrated as OEM drivers pointed by the Unattended Install mode. I had some dark thoughts because the ASR process uses its own kind of response file, and soon enough I was feced with the effects of this. After the device detection, Windows setup would simply freeze. After some 10 minutes, I gave up I went to reboot the machine. By chance I pressed Enter and... oops!! Setup resumed Not too good to document, I think. If setup freezes, get a cup of coffee an try pressing Enter several times After that, Windows finally came back, but it started complaining on every boot that the cluster service could not be started because the quorum disk could not be accessed (Quite right, since the other node has it). But after 60 sec, cluster service restarts and the node joins the cluster normally. That is problem #3. The last problem# is by far the silliest The (standard) MS Sql server install placed in the registry the SHORT file names (intended for 16-bit programs that must use the old 8.3 naming convention). So, the directory named Microsoft SQL Server had a short name of MICROS~1 before the ASR process, and MICROS~2 after (because there was a Microsoft MOM directory which was restored earlier ad got MICROS~1). Obviously SQL Server wouldn't start, and I had to rename both directories to get it to work. I am currently trying (after some sleep) to solve these so I can get a decent automated process. If someone gets any light on these questions please let me know.

For instance, the file xcopy.exe is not listed and thus not backed up during an incremental.
