Hello all
Can anyone confirm for me that when using the Incremental Forever method of
backing up, do you get a full offsite copy of the particular node in
question (AIX, 2003, etc) when doing an OFFSITE Create each day.
I am presumeing that one does from my understanding of this approach.
Hi Matthew,
Is your customer's TSM client scheduled using the TSM Central Scheduler
(I guess so if it's growing to over 100MBs) for backup operations? This
kind of log pruning only happens during a TSM scheduled backup operation
(not when the backup operation is scheduled via TWS/cron/Windows

Hi David,
We're using the TSM scheduler so it should be managed properly. I'll put
them in a different order on this machine and see if it makes a
difference.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Hi Richard,
The filename is as it states in the first mail - dsmsched_1yr.log -
unfortunately they've deleted it as they needed to free up space. It was
definitely the schedule log, and besides, wouldn't the setting

what about the missing D (as for days) behind 7 ?

I sought certainty on the customer-reported log name, as it was not

Hi Goran,
There is no setting for 'Days' in the SCHEDLOGRETENTION parameters -
just N(no prune) or number and discard/save - check the manual.

Hi Kelly,
You can encrypt any application that uses the TSM API (v5.3 or later)
using transparent encryption. This include Data Protection for SQL.
Take a look at this IBM technote (1213548) for details
on encrypting Data Protection for SQL backups:
This is on your library manager instance. If you delete the volhist TYPE=REMOTE
entries, the next time you do an AUDIT LIBRARY from
the library client they will re-sync all the volume information from the client
and build new TYPE=REMOTE entries for only the
volumes that the client has assigned.
I've changed the management class several Windows drives point to, to
get the backups into a different storage pool. How do I move the current
data? Will it migrate properly by storage pool reclaim, or do I need to
do an export/import?
TIA

I've just encountered the problem documented here:
http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21243837
While it's not a TSM problem per se, I thought it might be useful to let
people know about it as it probably affects all Windows 2003 SP1 clients
(as well as Windows XP SP1 clients).
Hello,
I've got a question about the setup of a library client and manager. Both
TSM servers are of the version 5.3.2 and run on AIX.
* The library manager would run on TSM server A that has access to the
library across the SAN.
* The library client would run on TSM server B and has no
We have installed a new TSM server intended to backup about a dozen
Novell Groupwise post offices, totaling around 600GB. These are being
directed to IBM Ultrium-TD3 LTO tapes in a FC-attached Spectralogic

(Sunfire V240, 2 1.5G
If I understand you correctly, the answer is yes and I do this daily.
I have 3-tape libraries (1-3493 2-3583) and they are shared by all 4-TSM
servers (2-AIX and 2-Linux) across our SAN.
1-AIX server is the Library Manager for the 3494-ATL and the other AIX
server is the LM for the 2-3583
Zoltan,
In my setup the TSM server B does not have access to the library of TSM
server A through the SAN.
But I would like to sent the TSM database backup from server B to the
library owned and used by TSM server A.

Couple suggestions...
Server side - groupwise tends to work better with a smaller TXNGROUPMAX
(ours is 1024). Since groupwise is a lot of small files, and they can
change rapidly, big TXNGROUPMAX settings can equal a lot of aggregate
rebuilding before going to the server.
Client Side - Set

Fellow TSM'rs,
I have been tasked to provide a backup schedule to provide weekly, monthly, and
yearly full backups for a 5 year duration. The weekly would be retained for a

policies, nodenames, etc. to keep the policy

I having an issue backing up a Windows 2000 server using TSM. We are
trying to backup about 9 TB of FS data which has a very large file
structure. We are getting a memory allocation request denied error. The
operating system is reaching the 2 GB memory threshold per thread
limitation and
One more suggestion:
Have you tried the following TSAFS settings?
Tsafs /enableGroupwise=true this is a TSAFS load switch
And have you tried tsafs /nocachingmode this is an online switch which we
use as a pre-schedule command.
Our post offices have about 1,500,000 objects and inspection time
ResourceUtilization will use multiple producer threads whether you've
got multiple volumes or not. In your case, you may be right about
snapshots negating the need for lower TXNG though. Are all the
groupwise po's on this one netapp device, and are the servers connected
to the storage via
This sounds like a classic request from management that doesn't
understand TSM works differently from typical backup software, and
they're trying to shoehorn it into behaving as they're used to. If you
make your normal retention policy 30 versions or more, you can at least
get rid of the
TSM does not support the use of the /enableGroupwise switch, as it is
the replacement for tsagw, which tsm also didn't support. It doesn't
stop backups from running, but it caused more errors in my experience.
The /nocachingmode switch is important to do though...had forgotten
about that one.

That's a question we've addressed before. As you realize, your site

to move on.

I have a 5.2 server and a 5.3 server. When comparing q opt output it does
not show the same options when comparing the outputs from each. This
particular option is listed in the dsmserv.opt exactly as the 5.2 server.
Any ideas as to why?
