Minimum permissions to run dsmadmc.exe?

Hi, I have try to figure out what the minimum permissions level a user need to have in Windows to be able to run DSMADMC.EXE (Version 6.2.1.3 64-bits). I have set the TSM Admins to have Read/Write and Modify access to C:\Program Files\Tivoli\* C:\Program Files\Common Files\Tivoli\* C:\Program

Snapdiff with 6.2.2.0 client

When we started using snapdiff backups, the documentation said it was compatible with any release of OnTap above 7.2. We committed to using snapdiff with our OnTap 7.3.3 FAS, and by using the arcane options TESTFLAG SNAPDIFFONTAPFAP and TESTFLAG SNAPDIFFNAMEFILTEROFF, it mostly worked. We

According to http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21417529 During snapshot difference incremental backup of N-Series or NetApp volumes, if files are skipped due to any reason, such as Tivoli Storage Manager server media mount being unavailable, these files might not be backed up

Re: Snapdiff with 6.2.2.0 client

Thanks for trying, but I found that too (and tried it, and couldn't make it work). I was hoping someone from the beta-test group would have unpublished information. - Margaret -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ads...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of Cameron Hanover

Re: Minimum permissions to run dsmadmc.exe?

That sounds more like a case of you don't have something in the dsm.opt correct, like the tcpserveraddress or maybe the routing at the system level. -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ads...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of Christian Svensson Sent: Tuesday, December 14,

Slow client backup

Hi Everyone, I am looking for suggestions on how to improve the backup of an AIX TSM client: Node Name: CHRS141 Platform: AIX Client OS Level: 5.3 Client Version: Version 5, release 5, level 2.0 Policy

Re: Slow client backup

The only thing that has worked for us in these types of cases is to run a selective backup rather than an incremental. This way TSM just backs up every file rather than going through the examination process. This may or may not help you as I don't know the specifics of your systems. JoeA Joseph

Re: drive path offline

You can update the path for the drive to bring it online. One of the parameters to the update path command is online=YES. I guess I would be curious as to why the path is offline. Did you have an error with the drive, did something happen with your fabric, or did someone take the path

Re: Slow client backup

I would investigate journal based backups for AIX. http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tsminfo/v6/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.itsm.client.doc/c_bac_jbbunix.html -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ads...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of Moyer, Joni M Sent: Tuesday,

Re: Slow client backup

You can also try a journal based backup, http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tsminfo/v6/index.jsp?topic=/com .ibm.itsm.client.doc/c_bac_jbbwin.html Maybe use / try Virtual volume mount concept to break it up in smaller chunks assuming its one big vol

Re: Snapdiff with 6.2.2.0 client

Hello Margaret, I am not sure why search engines have not found it yet, perhaps because they are pdf files. Look in the section called New for Version 6.2.2 in the following: Windows PDF: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27019824 UNIX PDF:

Here is my command for 3584 library update path tsmserv1 ldrive12 srctype=server desttype=drive library=3584lib1 online=yes Change server name, drive name and library to match yours. THis is simple, one TSM server and one library. David Longo D'Antonio III, Vincent E (N-Aerotek)

Re: Slow client backup

As other have indicated, journal based backups are a good thing to think about. You could also look into increasing the resourceutilisation and maxnummp. To make those work you may need to split up the filesystem (using virtualmountpoint). Last, if jbb is not an option, look into incremental by

Re: Snapdiff with 6.2.2.0 client

Just to supplement Frank's response, you can also use TSM itself to get help on messages, commands and options: Information about the new ANS4089W message can be found by running: dsmc help ans4089w Information about the new CREATENEWBASE option can be found by running: dsmc help

Re: Slow client backup

Out of curiosity, is the file system JFS or JFS2? The former employs the old traditional, inefficient, linear directory structure, while the latter employees B-tree database structure for better performance. Richard Sims

Re: Configuring IBM 3584 library

I just wanted to thank everyone for the advice and help with my VTL question. I've been able to get it defined and, after a bit of wrestling with TSM, have been able to get a test backup stg running to it. This is part of a pilot project between NYSERNET (NY State Education/Research Network) and
