TR: [ADSM-L] Tivoli Monitoring for TSM v7.1 - sharing experience
Hello everyone, I'm beginning to install Tivoli Monitoring for TSM instances on customers' sites, both 6.4 and 7.1, and I was wondering if anyone doing the same would like to share experience. I'm also lacking 7.1 documentation on the subject (except user guide of course) : latest documentation I found was Bill Komanetsky field guide Your First Report Using Cognos but was actually for v6.4. Does anyone also know if there is some kind on repository for customized reports ? (except those supplied in the Tivoli Monitoring for TSM package) Any help is much welcome. Thanks and regards Norman

I don't think 'wake up on lan' is appropriate since the TSM servers are on their own separate segment on the network. I've looked into prompted, but we do have a lot of computers that use wireless and therefore have inconsistent hostnames. Backing up during the day, even with journalling and subfile backups, still monopolizes the clients' computers (Vista, Mac OS X, Linux) and I get complaints. I think this list has touched on this before, but I'm checking again to see if anyone else is getting a nudge to do this or if there is something I'm not considering. Has anyone used pre and/or post sched commands to shut down computers after backing up? I have limited access to clients' desktops, so something more server-centric is preferred... Also, we have a TSM administrator position open. For details, visit http://jobs.princeton.edu and search the open positions for 'tsm'. I can be contacted *off list* for more details.

So I assume you have multiple primary pools, including that dead Netware pool, that back up into one copy pool? And you want to delete just SOME of the nodes out of the Copy Pool? Only good way I can think of, is to run MOVE NODEDATA on those Netware servers. Start with empty scratch volumes; run MOVE NODEDATA to get the data from those boxes onto new tapes. Run: select distinct node_name from volumeusage where volume_name='000XXX' to verify FER SURE that there is no other data on the volume Then: delete volume 000XXX discarddata=yes That will purge the data from THOSE volumes out of the copy pool. And if you never run backup stgpool on the Netware copy pool again, you should be OK.

Currently I have a standard Policy Domain which is the Default for all Windows boxes, a Policy Domain for our Domino TDP servers, an UNIX Policy Domain for all UNIX flavors. Recently I was talked into creating a separate Policy Domain for 2 UNIX clients that backup directly to tape and need special retentions. Now it has been suggested that I do the same to use as special retention buckets...even though not all the different departments have retentions standards as yet...although hopefully this will be clearer to them in the next year or so. My question is this..if we start creating different Policy Domains to use as Retention buckets could that not turn out to be potentially 10-20 domains until the data owners actually define a retention policy for all their data? What would be the pros and cons of doing this vs keeping what I have and just using different management classes? Is there something I'm not seeing in the big picture if we do decide to use the Policy Domains as Retention buckets? We have an average of 150 clients with a mixture of Windows, Unix and Domino TDPs. Thanks as always for any suggestions or ideas anyone may have on this subject. Shannon

One of the drives consistently is detecting tapes that get mounted to it as WRITE PROTECTED. We have replaced the fiber between the drive and the DS-4900 SAN switch and also moved it into a new port in the SAN switch in case the GBIC was causing the problem. This all started with the same drive getting multiple MEDIA FAULT errors on the same LTO4 drive and marking tapes as READ ONLY. Sun/STK has since replaced the same drive and now the drive in the same slot on the SL500 is getting the WRITE PROTECTED errors on the tapes that are mounted in it. Could it be the new drive has a bad sensor in it? I'm just not sure what else we can replace at this point to fix this. And if that is the case, are these drives (IBM Ultrium) really that unreliable and get errors this often? Or could it be something with the SL500? This is a new tape library with new drives that is only a few months old. This is our production system and having it mark 10-12 tapes a night as unavailable is quite a pain when we only have 50 tapes in the whole library. Thanks, John
