I have implemented the use of two different nodenames on the same server
only because I wanted to have the same node backing up files or databases
using a different policy set (and thus different management class). If the
data you'll be backing up can follow the same rules then there's no point

Hi
We have tested LTO1 tapes in a HP MSL5030 with two LTO2 Drives.
But we have always copied the data stored on the tapes to a disk pool.
Then we relabeld the LTO1 tapes in the LTO2 drives and wrote the data back
onto the tapes.
We have never tested to read the data of LTO1 tapes written by LTO1

These is a TDP Informix backup tape(s). The DBA runs the onbar backup with
3-streams direct to tape over the SAN. He wants to be able to restore the
database in the case of a disaster using those same 3-streams. If TSM copies
the data to a copypool, then the data will probably be combined onto a
Hi
Have you looked at the option of set drmprimstgpool.
These primary storage pools with the above option would be managed by DRM.
You would not have the below problem.
DRM/TSM would manage all of this for you.

Does the COPYSTGPOOLS= work in a LAN-free environment? I have a primary pool
on tape that the client write to directory over the SAN. Does the storage
agent honor the COPYSTGPOOLS parameter?

Hi,
yes you can have both lto1 and lto2 tapes in a lib with lto2 drives,
the chip inside the tape identivies what kind of tape it is, so no need to go
through a diskpool.

Hi
With the option of set drmprimstgpool, you do not have to do any of the below.
It would be just like setting up the DRM for Copystgpools.
DRM manages and dictates which tapes would have to go offsite and which tapes comes
back onsite.
You would not encounter problems like what you are having

Are you using Data Protection for SQL?
It is a specialized TSM client that will perform online
backup and restore of Microsoft SQL Server databases.
The User's Guide for that book will help to explain
how to set it up.

I was told long ago that if you have not used a Node in 30 days, it no longer uses a license. For our system we have to buy our node licenses in groups of 10, even if we only need 1 or 2. This works for us because there are always licenses available when a client

Hi Joe,
I would be skeptical of using any open file software to back up
an application that implements a complex database technology.
You are talking about backing up the files that a
live application uses to store the data. It is true that
open file support will allow you to get a snapshot of
Maybe I am missing something here but based on the origonal question. Just set the
reuse delay value on the primary pool that you are vaulting. When scratch tapes don't
go pending and them empty it is because the reuse delay is set to 0. Once you set it
to a value say, 2 then the tapes will
Just my two pennorth. I just used to back up my servers as-is without shutting down.

Zoltan,
My Windows is Win2K and my 3494 is Lan not SAN; BUT:
You are using the IBM MAGSTAR drivers for the 3590 drives, yes?
So you don't need the TSM device driver started.
AND,
on Win2K, you have to go in to Windows services and DISABLE the Windows RSM
service when you are using the 3590's,
Yes Joe,
We are using St. Bernard. I am certainly no master of novell or groupwise but have
assisted in several post office restores when mailboxes got wacked or review was
needed. I can say with a groupwise expert, ofm, tivoli, and a server to restore to;

Thanks for the suggestions.
I checked again and the service labeled as Removable Storage was not
running/started. I changed it to DISABLED to make sure.
Yes, these are FC attached Magstar 3590E1A drives, so they have to be
accessed/shared via SAN and TSM Library Sharing.
Not sure I understand
Windows does the device number assignment.
According to the doc for the Windows TSM server,
you use the TSM SCSI drivers for 3590 drives with a TSM 5.1 server, BUT
you must use the Magstar tape drivers INSTEAD of the TSM SCSI driver with a
TSM 5.2 server.
It's documented in the Getting Started

This is one of the many ways you can do this cross-client
restore
When you use the -fromenode option, you first need to go to
the host that originally backed up the data and run a set access
command. Basically, you are telling TSM that this node has access to the
data.
This is a new 5.2.2.x install.
The drivers are labeled IBM. I am pretty sure I got them from IBM Magstar
support, directly.!

Have you actually used this option??? From my reading of the admin guide and reference
all specifying DRMPRIMSTGPOOL does is cause DRM to create the recovery steps in the

Ya, the -virtualnode is another way to do it.
The issue I have with using this method very often is that the
person running the restore command is required to put in the client's
TSM password. We keep that password well guarded as it's shared by
groups of our hosts (with 800 TSM

take that list of volumes and update each to readw (update vol XYZ access=readw). The

That seems to be the issue. When these primary pool volumes contain no data,
TSM immediately returns them to scratch. Even though I had them as
ACC=UNAVAIL. Then when I did the Q VOL STG=PRODIFX* STATUS=EMPTY I got
nothing. They had already transitioned through the EMPTY status back to
scratch.
