Hi *SM'ers
An old topic to the ones familiar to this list : does anybody have a nice tip for
deleting Informix logs from TSM server ? My problem is that we're now using 64 bit
version of Informix, and that the version of Expire.c utility we used before doesn't
work anymore. Did anyone succeed
Hello,
I am trying to use server-to-server communication to route commands, in
particular updating a password on several servers at once. If you update a
password locally (via upd admin) on the TSM server then the password gets
concealed but when using routing a lot of messages are generated
One note to correct. Below we selected round-robin rather than standard
mode.
Thanks again.

Hello Jacque
You can do this by creating another node, (for the special directory), and
create another Client Scheduler, and a new client schedule. Just associate
the new node with the new schedule, and thats it.

We are running TSM 4.2.2.0 on OS390/2.10 and we are in the process of
replacing our mod 3 dasd with mod 9's.
Currently I have a disk storagepool with a mixture of mod 3 and mod 9 dasd
volumes, however when I define my dasd storage pool volumes I sized them
as mod 3.

Hi *SM-ers!
I have got one TSM client (4.2.1.0) which skips /VAR during an incremental.

Does anybody know what could be the cause of this?
Thanks in advance!

What I have noticed over the years (in AIX environments) is that TSM spreads
the load out across its direct access volumes.
Say you have 9 logical volumes across 3 physical and you have 3 inbound
client sessions...
TSM will spread that inbound traffic across 3 of its (locical) volumes.
If you have
Are you sure it skips /var ?
Could it be that /var is just a subdirectory under the filesystem / ?
(and you don't see ~...processing file system /var...~ ? )
I'd also double check the include/exclude list specified in the dsm.sys file
for the tsm server being used.
I'd also check the restart data

You will probably need to use an include/exclude list to include it in your

I am assuming you mean NT 4.0 versus 2000 (or higher).
The exclude works for me. Some things to check:
- Double-check your client options set and verify the syntax of the
statement.
- Double-check that this options set is specified for the node
ANR3.VCU.EDU.
- From the client machine run DSMC
APAR IC35399 has been opened for this.
Until a fix is available, do not use server-to-server command routing.
Rather, connect to the target server to run the command. This goes for
*any* command that contains a password (not just UPDATE ADMIN).

We purchased a NetAppliance filer and consolidated all of our File servers
to it. The filer has a snapshot utility that makes restores a lot faster and
easier. I believe part of the problem with restoring to NT is that the OS
cannot create the files fast enough to keep up with TSM.
