Hello,
Since most IT departments like the word centralize I wonder how other achieve a
centralized TSM enviroment.
We have smaller sites with 10-40 servers connected to main office with
20-155Mbit. One way to setup backup and recovery is to attach all servers to a
networked storage system.
all,
I am using aix 5.3 and tsm5.3.3 with a 3583 3xlto2 quite happily.
I want to add a msl 6060 but cannot get tsm/aix to see it.
I have tried smit-dev-tsm-dev, cfgmgr but nothing will become
available.
how do I get to the point where I can DEF LIBR?
Hi Nigel!
I haven't got any experience with non-IBM devices, but as far as I know,
you will have to use the TSM Device Support driver for non-IBM tape
devices.
Did you check the IBM technote for the MSL 6000 series? Here it is:

You describe an environment like our own, and is why we are moving off of

Hi Everybody,
I just upgraded from TSM 5.1.6 to TSM 5.3.2.3 on AIX. Does anyone have a link
or information other than the redbook regarding changes in the DRM module ?

Goodday,
We have IBM Tivoli Storage Manager 5.3.2.0 running on a ppc64 redhat

By accident I started three instances of adsmcad. I killed two of them and
happily went home at the end of the day.
The next day I found out that the backup

Am I right in assuming that correct authentication only takes place between
the server and the dsmcad process that initiated the first
contact with the server? So, in this case the TSM server didn't recognize
the dsmcad process?

It is very difficult to provide specific answers when there is very little
detail provided. For example, output from QUERY SCHEDULE F=D for the
schedule you defined.
In general, it would probably be better to put the command into a script,
then have the scheduler run the script.
For example:
You don't mention what client this is - but the newly released ones
(5.3.3) support journaling for AIX as well as Windows.
That might help with the incremental backup issue. Could be a lot of

Hi Rod!
TSM stores backups as aggregates. An aggregate can contain multiple
client backup files. The client files within an aggregate will expire
over time and thus occupy space within the aggregate.
When you use a file device class or a tape, you can reclaim the wasted
space these expired files
You're right! Started out at v5.3.0 on Win 2003. Have upgraded to
v5.3.2.2, v5.3.3, and downgraded back down to 5.3.0 to work through
various issues (win error 1450, insufficient resources). Journaling may
not be answer either, though I would love for it to be, because there is

You might try backing up each mount point as a separate client. You'll need
several dsm.opt files with the proper include and clientname options.
We do this on some of our large Novell clusters treating each volume as a
distinct client.

This happened to me and I had to have my UNIX guy check on some part of the

Did you download the software from Passport and happen to expand these

not case sensitive so I have seen problems in the past where people use
Winzip or another Windows tool to untar the files and a fileset with en_US

I've got a question about the usage of the

Currently I have the IP address of the TSM server listed in
the dsm.opt file on the clients. We will be implementing a new

Does anyone know how to tell how big the expiration table is?
The reason is that I ran CLEANUP EXPTABLE on Monday.
On one of my servers, it finished up almost immediately.
On the other, it's been running for almost 3 days.
Because of this, when I try to run EXPIRE INV, I get:

If it's by hostname, then it should be vaguely round-robin, if your DNS

You could also try using etherchannel. If set up correctly, you would

We use two card or one. We have both TSM names in the DNS tsm_primary
and tsm_backup. We then use the name we want to use in the dsm.opt
file. The backup is a private network we use just for backups. We do
not route to or from this network. Thus we can be sure that a server is
not going out
What kind of scheduling do you use? If you use prompted scheduling then it's
the TSM server that will contact the client for backup not the other way
around. As far as which ip the client will connect to if you leave the dns
entry, it will connect to the ip address that the dns entry resolves too.
OK, I finally figured it out.
It's processing by NODES.REG_TIME, then by FSID.
I have 75 of 479 nodes left.
I'll look in my occupancy extracts to see how much more there is.
