Thank you very much for your reply!
We tried the circumvention which is listed in the APAR, but that doesn't

down-leveled for system state backup and we

It makes me curious.. Why and when would I use SYSTEM OBJECT in a w2k3

Hello All!
I know this has been discussed many times within this group, but I tried to
find the exact discussions and couldn't find exactly what I was looking for
so I am sorry for repeating this question. I was just wondering what the
best practice is for daily admin tasks when using DRM? Here
If I run an INCREMENTAL * backup nightly and the Domino admin turns on
circular logging, does that INCREMENTAL still function the way it did, or
does it now switch over and not back up the database becuase is it logged
even though it is circular logging and I can't archive those logs?
I have a
Bill,
after switching logging in Domino to any type (circular or archive),
incremental backup process only databases for which DBIID changed
or which were deleted (inactivation in TSM). You have to use combination
of incremental and selective backup now, i.e. daily selective and once pre
week
What has been the experience of the group with recovering logged
databases? We see that the recovery manager takes forever to recover the
transaction logs, for they are so small and secondly that the tape is
mounted and label is verified for every log.

Hi gang,
I've been asked if there is any way to stop the Windows clients from
logging messages to their local application event logs.
I agree that if we are monitoring TSM problems via the server log then
it seems a bit redundant.
My last recollection of this question was that there was no way to

With Unix, I think it is difficult to determine during backup whether the

TSM analyzes the data for lengthy patterns of zeroes in the data stream,

We have a new Fedora Core 3 64-bit client, which has a /var/log/lastlog

is trying to backup the entire 1.2TB file, which is causing some backup
problems.

Since that DB restore was almost a week ago, I don't have any live data
for you. But *if I recall correctly*, each disk was about 50-60% busy.
Also, the DB and log re-mirrored themselves automatically after the
restore, yet I thought I saw the mirror volumes being written in parallel.
Great! Thanks!

Joni,
I'm assuming when you say DRM you are referring to TSM's Disaster
Recovery Manager. If so, I have a few suggestions:
Make sure you use the move drmedia command to eject copy pool tapes and
update their location (courier, vault, etc).

Hi Eric,
There are no plans for a 5.1.8 client. If you require a fix at the 5.1

possibility of getting you a 5.1.7-based interim fix.

Your analysis is correct... you only need the settings
as mentioned in the manual if you want to restore them!
In your case.. you have set up a technique that allows you to keep
full backups for longer... which provides a restore granularity
to a weekly timeframe for older backups... but a

Currently I am creating backupsets for different nodes, to send them

Name your backupsets intelligently when you create them. For instance,
create a batch file that passes the nodename and datestamp as arguments
to create backupsets with names such as FILESERVER1.01242005.

The TSM server is not actively aware of a file's attributes. The
sparseness of the file is determined at restore time, after the data has
been uncompressed, but before it is written to the disk.

Okay I'm with you so far, but will TSM server be able to tag a file as
a sparse file even if the client is compressing the file before it
sends it to TSM? Or does the client mark it as a sparse file. Otherwise
how would makesparsefile know to restore the file as a sparse file?
Thanks!
