?Are you: doing TSM backups to iSCSI disk/tape? w/10GE? w/TSM6.? Scanning ADSM-L archives, actual TSM experience w/iSCSI seems scarce! Recently, Gary Bowers recommends DirectIO No in dsmserv.opt w/ iSCSI, and in 2007 Ben Bullock had iSCSI poor performance (w/o that setting?) Most other iSCSI

Hi Christian, You are correct. DP/Exchange restores the database and extracts the data. Microsoft does not support pulling a single mailbox or single mail-item from a full backup and so DP/Exchange uses supported methods in order to restore individual mailbox data from full legacy and VSS

Application-side disaster/recovery and DRM

Hi all, Many applications have their own disaster/recovery strategies like DB2 HADR or Oracle DaraGaurd. Does it make sense to include them in DRM process. In case of disaster, these applications are already running in DR site and no need to recover by TSM. Moreover, in my opinion, DRM for

I mean using local TSM backup both for primary and secondary sites. By this method, each site has its own TSM for point-in-time recovery. But again it is limited to those applications that allow read-only access to their DR copy.

Strange error on TDP Oracle with DELETE OBSOLETE

Have a TDP 5.4.1.0 running on AIX. The RMAN script does a backup of the database, backup of the logs and then a DELETE OBSOLETE. From the output you see the channel allocating fine and the delete starts working until.BANG.ANS1033E Invalid TCP/IP Host. From the TSM server actlog I can see multiple

Bill. Weird. Just a thought though... Is the TCPSERVERADDRESS in your dsm.sys stanza a hostname or an IP address? Could a name lookup of the TSM server be crazily failing from time to time, particularly evident when opening and closing lots of sessions (making lots of name server lookup calls) in

Hi Jim, I have some experiments of generic iSCSI testing and TSM 5.5/6.1. We are at the moment looking at to upgrade from 6.1 to 6.2 but that's a different story. The knowledge I have of iSCSI is really good, but I haven't push the bandwidth to the max if I tell you the truth. The only part I

Several folks suggested not compressing on tape. As my LTO2 devclass was format: ULTRIUM2C, I created another devclass that was just ULTRIUM2. Then created new primary and copy tape pools and pointed to them. (This one client was in a Domain by itself, so I had more freedom to do this.)

I have three pieces of 10GBE related feedback, which may be a bit tangential or redundant. 1) Don't assume that the average OS network stacks are going to make efficient use of or good throughput on 10GBE. Insofar as filers also run an OS, its not a given that they will perform at peak form

Hi David, Two factors that I've seen make a difference (and this was Windows platform only, and may no longer apply) are the I/O size, and which of storport/miniport drivers are in use. Its anecdotal, but I've been told there is not much extra CPU to spare in an LTO tape drive. The more small

In short no. Sanergy is what allows you to share the filesystem amongst multiple servers. GPFS is a an alternative to SANergy that also provides the file and block locking necessary to share a physical device among multiple hosts. I may be wrong, but I believe that the only two supported LAN
