Multiple FileSpaces on Cluster

Hi, We have a Netware 6.5 Cluster and I find that TSM generates multiple FileSpaces when migrating the Volumes to other Cluster nodes. I will have ie. Server1\Home, Server2\Home and Server3\Home FileSpaces on Server. 1. I find that I cannot restore files that have been backed up to the

Re: Multiple FileSpaces on Cluster

Hi Louw It's not actually a Netware disk that moves between Netware clustered servers, it's a Netware Partition which can contain multiple disks. Just to confuse you, the TSM manual that describes how to set up Netware Cluster aware backups talks about a cluster group when they really mean a

Re: Backup larger than data on server

There is also the 'chitchat' that the client and server do when discussing whether an individual file has been backed up or is missing. That increases the network transmissions significantly if you have a large number of files and are not using local journaling. -Original Message-

I've never tried this, but the EXPORT NODE command has a mergefilespaces=yes parameter. Might be worth testing? On 19/01/2006 11:51:07 ADSM: Dist Stor Manager wrote: Hi Jim, O thx Jim for your input, it really helped me. Now do you know if I can merge the 3 FileSpaces? Regards Louw Pretorius

Can TSM data tapes be read by other programs?

Hi guys, TSM version 5.2 running on AIX 5.2 To my understanding, data TSM writes on tapes can not be used because it does not have any meta data associated with the data that is on tape. Is this true? would it be possible, for example, if a copypool tape is lost during transit that the data on

Re: Can TSM data tapes be read by other programs?

It's been a while since I actually looked at the content of a TSM tape, so I may be mis-remembering here -- but it looked to me like TSM writes ANSI-standard multiple-file tape volumes. There's a VOL1 label with the tape volser in it, and an HDR1 label (IIRC) for each file; the 'filename' field

I believe you have to have TSM DRP. We have recently implemented TSM, Content Manager OnDemand, and Centera as the storage device. Content Manager OnDemand controls the retention settings, and TSM is only the api to Centera. We have TSM Extended Edition. I believe in order for retention to

Running dsmcad to show information from secondary tsm nodename

I haven't used it myself, but it works the same way as OTG DiskExtender did. It was mentioned during discussion at our local TSM user group; at least 2 sites were using DiskExtender and LIKED the way it handled stub files. Yes, your backup has only the stub. But the file itself, is still in the

Re: Multiple FileSpaces on Cluster

Here's a bit more on top of Jim's good explanation on NetWare clusters. The cluster nodes are actually virtual servers with their own IPs. We were seeing the exact same thing as you Louw as the NetWare TSM client manual is a little confusing about clusters. We're running uniquely named DSMCADs off
