Avoiding holding a tape during a DB2 Redirected restore

Hi Group. I have a 300GB DB2 (SAP) database that I am trying to move from one site to another using a DB2 redirected restore via TSM. The new site is tape constrained until we can move the drives from the old to the new sites, but we are in testing phase at the moment. When the restore runs,

OS390 TSM Performance questions.

Hello, We're running TSM v5.1.5.4 on an IBM 20660A2 processor running OS390 v10. There is a 100Mbit, single port OSA card on the processor. We are backing up 197 clients per night. MAXSCHEDSESSIONS is set to allow 116 simultaneous backup sessions. Our backup window begins at 20:00 and

Re: Avoiding holding a tape during a DB2 Redirected restore

Hi We experience the SAP problem except I don't believe TSM 'holds' the drive. DB2 will read backup header from tape DB2 then creates containers as required. While the containers are being created, TSM waits for the client to return. The tape is unmounted after a timeout period. When containers

Alan, As can be expected there is got to be a dozen different things to look at. However, from what you have said so far I would cut the maximum number of concurrent session in half. I found that when I get too many concurrent session TSM thrashes. I just started backing up desktops

Re: TSM 5.2 Question

I doubt IBM will incorporate BMR features into ITSM until the cow jumps over the moon. As far as purchasing Veritas BMR, Veritas has announced that they will not support future TSM versions and that all future development will be done exclusively with NetBackup. Sorry, the buck stops here. --

I just had a dog-and-pony show yesterday about 5.1 update features, after which SRM, then BMR for 5.2 was discussed. Basically, for AIX they're incorporating SYSBACK as part of the Tivoli product, they said that there would be a sysback-like feature for Solaris (we asked them to check into root

As part of the 5.2 announcement, I remember reading something about TSM supporting a new feature of either XP or .NET that Microsoft was adding to support BMR functionality... I'll have to see if I can dig up the actual document again. As for Unix, there wasn't anything, but the old Sysback
