Re: delete filespace and LOGMODE NORMAL

Hi Sascha! Indeed this sounds strange. I can imagine that the delete filespace pins the log, which causes the log to grow, but as soon as you cancel the delete filespace, the pinning should be gone and thus the log utilization should be back to 0. This only proves my point: I have a PMR open for

Wanda, when id dup finds duplicate chunks in the same storagepool, it will raise the pct_reclaim value for the volume it is working on. If the pct_reclaim isn't going up, that means there are no duplicate chunks being found. Id dup is still chunking the backups up (watch you database grow!) but

In TSM V5, DELETE FILESPACE is extremely resource-intensive. To get rid of this huge filespace you may have to plan to schedule it in pieces. Set a schedule to start it every day at a quiet time, and then cancel the process when the server needs to do something else. Doing it in small pieces will

NDMP data is not dedupable by TSM when using filepools (as opposed to a VTL like the Protectier that does a great job at it) because it is stuffed with date/time stamps and TSM can't parse the files correctly for hashing at the moment., when TSM sees NDMP data is doesn't even try to dedupe the
