Copy DBBackup tape to disk (AIX)

Has anyone out there tried to copy a database backup tape to disk? My goal is to create an 1:1 image of a database backup tape to (remote) disks during unattended times. Use of dd (dd read error: Not enough space) or cat (creates a file white length 0) fails. tcopy works well for creating a copy

Re: archive failure (continued)

You could try running monthly incrementals under a different nodename (ie: create another dsm.opt file eg: dsmmthly.opt) to your TSM (same or even dedicated) server. We have the financial regulatory requirement also and regular archives are not the way to go.

RC of scheduled commands

Hi there, I would like to know your opinion about a problem with the results of scheduled commands. We moved our USS TSM client from V4 to V5. We have a scheduled archive commands that has three patterns to process in the objects field; for the first two, there are always file to be

Re: AW: Copy DBBackup tape to disk (AIX)

We've considered using either FTP (or NFS mounted filesystems if performance is acceptable) to accomlish the same thing for copying all of our critical server objects/files to an alternate site- the DB backup to file should make this all relatively easy-- From: Horst Scherzer [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Antwort: Problems with DP for Lotus Domino (AIX)

Hi Rainer! Thanks for you reply! We tried changing the TDP node's password on the TSM server. Actually, the problem was solved by removing an incorrect inludeexclude statement from one of the option files. Kindest regards, Eric van Loon KLM Royal Dutch Airlines -Original Message- From:

Re: RC of scheduled commands

Hello Valeriano, In the case of your third pattern, you understand that the files may not be there, so it is not a failure (in practice) if the archive does not work. On the other hand, you say that your first and second patterns always have files to process. So suppose that TSM did not report

ANS1017E on NT 4.0 - TSM 5.1.5.2

Backups for one of our NT 4.0 servers running TSM 5 Release 1 Level 5.2 (Server running 5.1.6.0 on AIX 5) missed this weekend...after stopping and restarting the service, the same ANS1017E message is reported in the log and a session cannot be established... Here is a part of the log from

Copy job freezed

Hi *Smers, Could anybody explain me why I consistently see backup stg jobs freezing ? What happens is that the job begins, but thereafter hangs for a while, doing nothing at all, and suddenly starts copying data on tape. I saw this behavior on severall flavors of TSM (actually on 4.2.3.1),

Re: ANS1017E on NT 4.0 - TSM 5.1.5.2

I don't know why this is happening, but as the messages suggest, it is probably a network-related issue. Since your note suggests that other clients ran successfully, can we assume that the TSM server is up and running? Some other things to try: 1) From an OS prompt, change into the directory

Re: TSM Server not using maximum number of drives.

The Resource Utilization parameter in your client dsm.opt will set the number of streams that the backup will use hence the number of drives. So if you only have two streams going directly to tape you would only uses 2 tape drives. I think the Resource Utilization sets the multi-streaming

Capacity planning (Repost dute to no response)

I have no idea if my posts are getting through to the list since time to time I find no responses or get returned mail telling me I'm not allowed to post. Here is a question I posed and heard nothing. I am wondering how you all have managed capacity plans on your TSM Servers. Does anyone have a

Total Data Backed Up

We recently migrated from TSM Server V 4.2.1 to TSM Server V 4.2.3 We used to run a script that gave us the Total Data Backed up for last night. Now after we migrated to v 4.2.3 this script has stopped working. We know for a fact that we backup close to 900 GB evry night (on one Server) but it

Re: Is it ok to exclude ntuser.dat, and usrclass.dat ????

Ok, now I'm rereading posts. UserA's ntuser.dat is copied to the adsm.sys directory. These are not automatically restored with the registry restore so they will not overwrite the Administrators profile. You manually copy UserA's profile from adsm.sys if you want to. -Original Message-

Web interface too slow

Hello, I'm using TSM 4.1.5 and a few days ago the web interface became too slow... When i use it on the TSM Server it is fine... but when i use it from a remote computer it become too slow... Has anyone seen it before? Thanks in advance, Wagner Garcia Campagner.

Re: Capacity planning (Repost dute to no response)

Geoffrey, I do pretty standard metrics by tape count, occupancy, CPU utilization, paging, network interface utilization, etc, for my capacity planning. I'm afraid there's really no formula per se that's useful in the real world. The TSM documentation describes how you can take your %change,

Re: Copy job freezed

Richard, That would make sense, if the job was freezing in the middle of the copies, but apparently, it just waits a while before starting to write the first bit of data to tape, and then goes fine till the end ! Thanks anyway ;-) Arnaud =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
