Re: Problems with DocAve SharePoint TDP Restore
Hi Kirk, Usually the source of this oh-so-informative error message has to do with the widespread elevation of rights for the Agent user. You might try logging into the destination db as the account and see if you can create a database. Also-- if you are doing an in-place restore of a deleted site, it may not have the requisite framework to create the site into. DocAve is picky about what you select (like the . directory for example to restore-- it will allow you to pull out pieces that require destination site configuration to accept. Did you select the whole platform backup to restore, or a (sub)site deeper in the hierarchy? It is picky about that too. Read the documentation carefully-- it will contain the caveats of how to do the restores, and the how-tos are very literal-- meaning the instructions show exactly how to do what they are demonstrating, but you shouldn't extrapolate processes from the examples. Do you happen to know if there has been a Redbook put out on TDP for DB/SharePoint yet?

We've downloaded and installed v6.1.4 from Passport Advantage and have been able to configure and run successful backups. However on testing the restore process, it seems that we're getting an error message - see below.

When the error message is produced, the correct domain appears in the error. Has anyone else seen this error message before? I've seen a similar message when searching on adsm.org but not the same error message. There doesn't seem to be much other information available within the DocAve software itself, but it does look as though it is trying and failing to carry out an action on the database. It seems as though it is trying to connect to the database that has been deleted however I will have to ask the DBA to confirm that part tomorrow. The account has been given sa access on the database as a test and the error is still generated. TSM version this is going to is v6.2.2 running on Linux however I don't think that is particularly relevant. Any help gratefully received! Cheers, Steve
Re: Experiences with Teradata
Rick-- I wanted to explore it, so as to leverage our Enterprise TSM investment. However, it is pricey and if you don't have your disks on SAN, you won't get the through-put. We currently use a little SpectraLogic library with two Ultrium drives. And, FWIW, the Teradata technical folks weren't very keen on TSM.

MS Server 2003, cluster running out of space...Compression TSM baclient
Good Morning TSMers! We are running really low on space on our clustered user drive. I was thinking we could do the MS compression on the entire drive to get some space till we move to DFS on 2008. One of my co-workers said that the reason that this hasn't already been tried is that there is some kind of issue with TSM-either the backups or the restores don't work right. I am unable to confirm/deny issue via Google... Anyone have anything definitive on this? Point me where to hunt for documentation?? I'm not coming across anything on IBM's Tivoli portal, and the issue doesn't ring any bells for me. thanks! lisa w:573.751.1206 c:573.230.9290

Re: Restoring LARGE server
Zoltan: Have you looked at the server-side of this situation? You can optimize for backup or restore but not usually both. While you may slam TBs to the server in a short window of time, you usually are increasing the window on the restore-- unless you've thought about it when architecting. Do you have the restore waiting for a bunch of mount points? Would it work to try to use the TSM server to create backup sets for chunks of the client's data? (Never tried this, but it always sounded like an intriguing concept with the backup set idea.) Or to attempt parallel restores on data that doesn't reside on the same tape? Have you looked to see if collocation on the stgpool is an issue? If you are single-streaming from one tape, can you connive a way to set up a diskpool with that clients' data to prestage the restore? Do a copy stgpool (if on tape) into a bunch of disks that you can spray the data back onto the client? If none of this is helpful, I apologize and I wish you the best of luck! I am on the client side of things TSM now, so I may not have a clue anymore!

From the book: When you enter an unrestricted wildcard source file specification on the restore command and do not specify any of the options: inactive, latest, pick, fromdate, todate, or |volinformation, the client uses a no query restore method for restoring files and directories from the server. This method is called no query restore because instead of querying the server for each object to be restored, a single restore request is sent to the server. In this case, the server returns the files and directories to the client without further action by the client. The client merely accepts the data coming from the server and restores it to the destination named on the restore command. What is killing me is having to restore inactive file (the server corruption completely killed a big directory that the OS says is now empty so the TSM backup marked everything inactive). In my opinion, these restrictions for NQR plus the issue of not having an equivalent of MEMORYEFFICIENT for restores, is a major problem/weakness in TSM. I have spent the past 3+ days (and will be working throughout the weekend) to restore these files. I keep having to drill further and further into each directory structure to guess which directory I can attempt to restore. Every time I click on a directory and attempt a restore, the process runs for 30-minutes transferring 2G or more of meta-data before it eventually fails on insufficient memory or I am lucky enough to pick one that restores. Then I have to start all over again, keep track of where I am and what I was able to restore, drill further down, rinse-lather-repeat! Besides the 22M objects, there is 700GB of data to process/wander through. What good is having 50M objects of backups if I can't restore them in a reasonable fashion?

In the course of diagnosing VSS-related problems, the solution very often involved installing one or more Windows hotfixes -- enough so, that we asked Microsoft VSS support engineers if they have any minimum, baseline maintenance/patch levels that they would recommend any VSS user to install for preventive maintenance. The hotfix roll-ups described in the technote are what Microsoft advised. The objective of the pre-req is best out-of-the-box experience with TSM; that is, to improve the likelihood of successful backups. We do not programmatically enforce the pre-reqs; that is, TSM won't test for the presence of the hotfixes and refuse to run if they are not installed. Some users run just fine without the hotfixes (there is no list of conditions I am aware of that specify under what conditions you will or will not have problems). But if you report a system state backup issue (for example) and the symptoms point to an error in VSS, then installing the hotfixes is typically among the first things we ask. It is my experience that when Microsoft support engineers have been engaged to assist in troubleshooting, this is their position as well since they prefer to shoot off the known baseline. (NOTE: I do not speak for Microsoft or cite any Microsoft policy, official or otherwise; I am only speaking from my own personal experience and observations.) It should be noted that these hotfixes are pre-reqs only if you intend to use the TSM client to perform operations that involve VSS, though I think most users do system state backup. Which one is right-- do I apply 934016 because IBM says it's required or do I wait until a production server experiences the specific problem? On one hand, some users prefer to not put on any maintenance unless they have to. If you choose not to install them and system state backup runs fine, then I certainly will not argue with success. On the other hand, many users like to keep all their systems at consistent service levels, so if they install it once (due to a problem, say, on even just one machine), they'll install it everywhere. On the third hand, other users prefer to avoid even the first occurrence of a problem, in which case they'll want to put the pre-reqs on in advance.

HELP! wrapping my non-dba brain around MS SQL, SQL server management studio and TSM TDP for Dbs...
Hi guys and gals I am trying to find definitive documentation (or at least authoritative) on how to set up a SQL server that is MSCS SQL clustered, full recovery mode, and has transactional logging on to run nicely with TDP. I had the TDP running and working, but the DBAs were using the mgmt studio to manage SQL, and I am guessing that some of the routines that they were using for restores were calling for t-logs that TSM/TDP had also done something with-or that is the best explanation I could come up with. (Let me emphasize that I am not a SQL DBA). I told them I'd turn off the TDP and they could resume their testing. (Bear in mind, I don't think they ever read any of the TDP for SQL documentation I provided for them-I don't think they want to learn another tool). They had no more issues with missing t-logs (or whatever it was- I asked for logs and or error messages, but I never got any). Then, they wanted me to stop SQL and do cold backups of the filesystems. So I created the pre post schedule commands that off lined the clustered SQL services, performed the cold filesystem backup, and then brought them back up. Now it seems that with production (this is pre-prod) they don't want the down time, so we are back to the TDP. I asked them if just backing up the exports (right word) or the .BAKs from the Mgmt studio would be enough and I was told that they didn't use the .BAK files for that. Or something else like that that I didn't fully understand (admittedly, I got a little aggravated and asked them why they were even creating them thenbut did I mention I am not a DBA???) If I use the TDP-should I just do a full hot nightly (and they can manage the t-logs and roll-forward themselves with the SQL Mgmt.

Re: ?? TDP for DBs - does it support SQL Express?
Thank you all for your replies. Hmm, this is starting to sound like a bummer. The DBAs are using Oracle ODI with SQL Express... in production ...for long term... from Teradata data I was looking at the errors in the dsmerror.log from the baclient.and began to wonder. and I made the mistake of asking if they wanted to be able to recover if something happened to their server.

Re: TSM for SharePoint (DocAve)
Hi Guido, Brand new VM, purposed solely as the Media Server the DocAve Server; TSM baclient level 5.5.1.0, with the DocAve version of 4.5.3 incr works fine. DocAve Client installed on SharePoint server. Installed from CD following the IBM OEM instructions-- the install seems to be done correctly. I have an Active Directory service account set up and all the tests return okay. The service account is a Farm Admin, and in the local Administrators group on the DocAve Media Server, the SQL box the SharePoint box. But-- I ran a Site backup, which said it ran successfully, with 0MBs backed up. I am unclear on how TSM fits into the mix. Do I have to set up local DASD storage for the Media Server and then does the baclient do the backup at the OS level? The only references to TSM I can find in the documentation is how to set up the management class, and to have nodename defined on TSM server and that TSM has index files on the local Media Server file system. It is silent on whether I have to set up a network share on the DocAve Client to backup to the Media Server how I should configure the storage settings on the Media Server. It talks about what I can do, but not what I must do to set it up correctly for TSM. I have found some documentation by IBM's Dave Daun-- it is a PowerPoint presentation that's helpful. From what I can tell the IBM OEM documentation is the Control Panel Module and the Data Protection Module out of DocAve's User Guide. I also found some documentation on the IBM DS4000 DocAve that is helpful also, but in the sum I am still pretty much in the dark.

I have Del- and to me they were silent on the inactivation (it's quite different than Oracle/RMAN). The question on the management class parameters was because the TSM Admins determined that they didn't need to follow the Redbook's recommendations on unlimited/unlimited and I am unable to provide hard cold reasons why they should follow the Redbook. What they gave me: Created Policy Domain , Set up management class Standard. For now (until business side gets back to us with retention) set up the MC with 0 days between backups, 7 versions of each file kept, 30 days to keep inactive versions, 1 deleted version, keep last file f! or 60 days. Set up separate collocation group for X. My comments regarding: How does this MC affect backup of the SQL transaction logs (since it is backup and not archive)? I am concerned that the 7 versions existing 1 deleted may cause issues doing a point-in-time restore (i.e.- the log that needs to be restored rolled off TSM now the point in time recovery fails). Regarding metadata being retained on disk vs. on tape. We may not be able to query database objects for restore if the metadata is on tape. This is another concern I have regarding only one STANDARD management class. What I asked for: I have relied heavily on the IBM Redbook Backing up Microsoft SQL Server with IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (SG-24-6148-01) and its recommended setup 1. I suggest you collocate by node or filesystem, depending on size of filesystems maxsize of the tapes--but if you can meet the business-side's RTO ! without collocation, then whatever works. 2. Separate storage pools (stgp) be set up to backup the SQL server environment. (Redbook pg 81) 2.a Dedicated disk storage pools for the primary stgps for the SQL DB servers the TDPs DRSQLDBDISK- primary pool for DB Data DRSQLLOGDISK- primary pool for DB logs DRSQLDISKCOPY-copypool for DRSQLLOGDISK DRSQLMETADISK) DRSQLTAPECOPY- copy pool for DRSQLDBDISK in tape library REUSEDELAY=2 DR_DRIMVDL- DR offsite tapes REUSEDELAY=2 DRSQLMETADISK-this is for metadata when using VSS. However, a system utilizing transaction log backup without using VSS staging was not illustrated in the Redbook, so it's unclear we'd need this for the legacy backup solution. The documentation discusses ! when working with VSS backups another separate disk stgp be set up for the metadata. The problem with this is that in the Redbook team's test environment, they assume all clustered servers would be utilizing VSS-either staging, offloaded or hardware. I think that this is something we should look into-given the projected data volume and the RTOs-perhaps even the backup window. We could do the staging or off-loaded now-we just need to install the IBM TSM for Copy Services. And some more configuration. 3. Separate Policy Domain (PD) (Redbook ppg 83 84) 3.a Management Class (MC) *DRSQLDAILY- for the daily weekly backups with retention policy based on date- VEREXISTS=nolimit VERDELETED=nolimit RETEXTRA=35 RETONLY=90 **Default MC *DRSQL_LONG- monthly backups archives (shouldn't need to include meta logs if the archive/(full) backup is done correctly-right? I would also suggest that the scheduled job! s use dates in the name of the backup for the archives, so we don't run into issues with version retention for clarity) VEREXISTS=2 VERDELETED=1

Your administrator deletes the management class from your active policy set. The default management class is used to manage the backup versions when you back up the file again. Your administrator assigns your client node to a different policy domain and the active policy set in that domain does not have a management class with the same name.

TSM client MIB for SNMP
Alphabet soup this morning! I know that SNMP and logging events to receivers is documented for the TSM server. Since I am not a TSM server admin, I'd like to not have to mess with that and see if I can do something client-side. We use Orion SolarWinds to monitor our network and devices and I am hoping there is a MIB that the TSM clients have (or can get hold of) so that we can poll whether managed servers have the tsm client installed on it. I can't find any info regarding SNMP or MIBs for the TSM clientscan anyone help me out? I am trying to find a solution to the question-- are all our servers being backed up?

Anyone doing TSM backups for a 3M Motor Vehicle Solution?
My employer (not being cryptic- just trying to avoid Google hits ;-) is in the middle of a project involving 3M's Motor Vehicle Solution.

In doing some online research, I saw press releases of other States and governmental agencies that have adopted the system, or modules from the system. Since I am behind the curve on this project, I was hoping that somewhere in ADSM-L land there were folks that have familiarity with the system and the TSM backups-for example 3M, IA, MT. I know that this list is heavy on governmental, institutional, and large business TSM installations and was hoping I could start up a conversation with a TSM admin on how their backup solution was implemented.

Re: ANS5280E Object enumeration from a file set or file list failed
By default TSM backs up system state with vss-- how you specify an alternate provider in TSM-- I don't know. I had the error you described yesterday and I thought I had fixed it. I had updated client code and included the lvsa module in the msiexec install statement. I had the stanza snapshotproviderimagenone in my dsm.opt file.

Tim - I'll bow to anyone who is actually familiar with Windows, but my guess would be that things under the Repair directory should inherently be excluded by the Exclude list inherently contributed to TSM by Windows, as revealed in 'dsmc q inclexcl' where such entries are listed as contributed by Operating System, and constitute what I believe to be called Component Registry file list. If so, this would suggest to me that something has gone wrong with the Registry contents on that W2000 system, ostensibly in the HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control \BackupRestore\FilesNotToBackup registry subkey. I would compare that system's 'dsmc q inclexcl' with that on another W2000 system in your shop which is at the same SP level. what little I know, Richard Sims
Re: AW: [ADSM-L] Anyone write/develop a wmi query for win32_processor? (value units TSM licensing)
Yes, thanks-- that's what I'd tried. However-- it doesn't accurately count core/cpus-- you have to install a hotfix for the WMI properties to actually reflect reality :-( ---from the KB article--- Until Vista was released, the various Windows operating systems were unable to identify the number of physical, logical and multicore processors. Vista added the following new properties to WMI that provide for: Number of physical processors Number of logical processors Number of cores Even though Inventory for Windows provides a 'cores' attribute in the inv_aex_hw_cpu table and hardware inventory will attempt to correctly populate this column. However, processor information is still not complete. Server 2003 and XP do not have the above properties in WMI, by default. Microsoft has created two hotfixes that update WMI on these OSes - one per OS. These hotfixes are available only by request from Microsoft and can be found at: XP: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936235/ 2003: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/932370/ Custom Inventory can be implemented to capture the correct processor information as provided by the above properties. Microsoft provides the following information regarding these hotfixes: WMI properties before applying the hotfix Win32_ComputerSystem The NumberOfLogicalProcessors property is not available. The NumberOfProcessors property returns the number of logical processors that are available on the system. Win32_Processor The number of Win32_Processor instances that are returned is equal to the number of logical processors that are available on the system. The NumberOfCores property is not available. The NumberOfLogicalProcessors property is not available. WMI Properties after applying the hotfix Win32_ComputerSystem The NumberOfProcessors property returns the number of physical processors that are available on the system. The NumberOfLogicalProcessors property returns the number of logical processors that are available on the system. Win32_Processor The number of NumberOfLogicalProcessors instances that are returned is equal to the number of logical processors that are available on the system. The NumberOfCores property returns the number of cores that are available on the system. The number of Win32_Processor instances that are returned is equal to the number of physical processors that are available on the system. To determine whether hyperthreading is enabled for the processor, compare the value of the NumberOfCores property to the value of the NumberOfLogicalProcessors property. If hyperthreading is enabled in the BIOS for the processor, the value of the NumberOfCores property is less than the value of the NumberOfLogicalProcessors property. For example, assume that a dual-processor system contains two processors that are each enabled for hyperthreading. This system can run four threads or four programs at the same time. In this case, the value of the NumberOfCores property is 2, and the value of the NumberOfLogicalProcessors property is 4. thanks! lisa -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Thomas Rupp Sent: Wednesday, May 28, 2008 6:20 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] AW: [ADSM-L] Anyone write/develop a wmi query for win32_processor?

We are using MEMORYEFFICIENTBACKUP=DISKCACHE but still get ANSE Win32 RC 1450 as noted in http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21251903 Pointing at the Faulty OS or poor implementation doesn't solve the problem. This is the client's main file server and hasn't yet had a clean backup. Has anyone else seen this issue, and developed a workaround that you'd like to share? All I can think of at this point is a series of backups of various subtrees, Thanks Steve. Steven Harris TSM Admin, Sydney Australia
Re: TSM server scaling/sizing for lots (20000) nodes
Hi Richard! How does your shop deal with departmental server admins-- do they have any access to the TSM server? If they do, do you allow them to use their own ids for backup and restore, ISC/Admin Center, TSM Operational Reports, SQL queries, etc.? I used to be on the other side of the TSM fence. I adminned the TSM servers the clients (TSM-wise); but I have changed jobs and state agencies. Now part of my duties are adminning TSM clients, but I have NO access to the TSM server. I have to submit a trouble ticket to obtain information about standard management classes, enhancements to client backup reports (from TOR) and node queries (among other things). I have been to other public sites for users on TSM (off the top of my head-- U Florida; Berkeley; Oxford; BU) where policies, standards, client code, option sets, charges--- information, simply, is given to the TSM user community. I have requested a view-only admin id and/or a policy-limited id-- No go. Some of my trouble tickets are still open/suspended. How DO most TSM shops run their service for the TSM client admins that are not TSM server admins? When I was a TSM admin, I was THRILLED if one of the client admins even took an interest in whether backups were failing, so this cold shoulder is frustrating. If others are willing to share their experiences, please chime in!! thanks! lisa -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Richard Sims Sent: Monday, April 28, 2008 1:20 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] TSM server scaling/sizing for lots (2) nodes My first thought would be: How much unique data is there? This is to say, if the PC disk was lost, would most of it actually be rebuilt from a central reinstall image of some kind, rather than representing unique data? If so, a lot of stuff could be excluded as unnecessary. I would then look into whether all these PCs actually store generated data, as opposed to having all data worth having actually residing on central file servers, where a single point of backup/restore would prevail. If all these PCs are unique and individually storing data, a better approach to PC implementation needs to be looked at, as backup/ restore, network loading, and the overhead of fielding possibly thousands of phone calls could be untenable... As in, who the heck came up with such a rag-tag deployment, anyway? This is all going to make for an interesting service agreement... one which will have to say that unless some kind of real-time backup is put into place, data will inevitably be subject to unrecoverability due to standard backup intervals. Assure that those served aren't expecting miracles, to avoid political calamities. Richard Sims

I would be reasonably happy with that arrangement-- I have asked for it, and offered to help set it up, sign off on whatever waivers if the restrictions don't work right and I stumble upon information that is not Revenue's.

The admins here graciously granted my id unrestricted policy priv, which gives me 95% access, based on my prior knowledge. We (Windoze folks) maintain all our own schedules, node defs, and heavily use client option sets to centralize all of our common include/excludes. All of our nodes are in their own policy domain, which helps segregate things a bit. Overall the arrangement works well. Good luck, hope this helps convince your admins to loosen the reins a bit!

Re: TSM server scaling/sizing for lots (20000) nodes
The TSM admins register the nodes. We request from the TSM admins to add, delete, and associate client nodes. Anything that requires admin access is performed by admins.
