Re: Client Autodeployment

I did try client autodeployment in the lab and, frankly, found it rather disappointing - tricky to troubleshoot and no way of automating it from the command line that we could work out. Didn't experience any random reboots because we couldn't get the damn thing to work! /David Mc Sent from my

Hi David, what phases of the deployment steps were you trying to automate via the command line and did not work for you -- Scheduling the deployment ? Observing the results? So we can help you with that. Regards/Pozdravi, Gergana | | ~\\ ! //~ | | ( ( 'o . o' ) )Imagination can

I have tried the autodeploy feature and like it. Yes it has been problems, mostly because IBM failed to keep the ftp-server compatible with the autodeploy feature (wrong case in a file name and later a corrupt xml-file), but now it works. I recommend everyone to try it. It is easy to setup

Timothy, This message does not actually cause the backup to fail. However, it does merit attention. Go to the link in my sig and search on the message number (ANS1417W) and you will find an important flash about this issue (which was also posted to the list a couple or so weeks ago). Best

Timothy, The ANS1417W is a warning message, which would cause the backup to end with a status of successful and return code 8. This return code means that TSM was able get through the backup operation, but one or more warning messages were issued which should be investigated. It can also mean

nightmares with a STK SL500 tape library

We purchased an STK SL500 tape library with 4 LTO4 drives in it a few years ago and we have had nothing but problems with it, almost from the beginning. It is fully loaded with LTO4 cartridges (about 160) and seems to randomly just crash and take all of the drives offline to TSM. We also have a

I had similar issues with an STK L180 library, and it came down to bad firmware on the library. Have you checked to make sure you're running the same level on both libraries? It should be viewable on the front panel. What are the symptoms when it goes offline? Is the front panel still

I've never working with this library, but have some questions/ideas. 1. Are both libraries identical and do they have same firmware for library and drives? How about configuration on the library? 2. They are both connected to same TSM server you say. Do they use the same HBA's on the TSM

We have two SL3000s (one all LTO4 and one all LTO5) and have had some issues with the older one, but none with the newer one. After talking with a Sun (or was it Oracle?) engineer, it appeared that there were some firmware bugs with the HP LTO4 drives that caused them to be overly sensitive to
