I don´t use compression from the clients. There are some multimedia data, but
not even close to make the tapes look like this. This is documents, programs,

Hello.
I'm looking for getting TSM configured in an OES2 Cluster environment. We

to backup the NSS volume.

You need to create dedicated TSM Scheduler for Node_Cluster using

You didn't specify whether these were 3592 generation 1 or 2 drives.
If gen 1, the 3592C you have set is the correct devclass specification.
I would check that your tape device driver is the correct type, and is
a recent vintage, to avoid any vagaries in passing device commands

You would not be able to match up Objects inspected by scanning the log;
You SHOULD be able to match up objects backed up and objects expired;
The log numbers are larger than the client statistics, and that makes
sense if the log has a lot of sessions, say, over the course of a
week.

We tried this for a while, and I can dig up the docs on exactly how to

Will not the PreserveDBOnExit=1 setting keep the journal active during a
failover and prevent a full backup?
I hope so cause I just set up journaling on a cluster and was counting on this.

There is a backup that began on October 17, but appears to have been
interrupted (see line #39436 in your log file). Try removing all the lines
up to that point so only the backup of October 18 is included, then retry

Hi Christian,
There is no server wide view of the volumes in ISC - the q vol * f=d
equivalent. If this is something you need, the best way to get it in the
product is to work with your IBM sales team to get a requirement opened to
add this function.
