Random Access Disk Pools

I have heard in the past that random access disk pools can become fragmented and practically unusable after a while. I was wondering if anyone sees this in the real world? I posted the other day about managing predefined volumes in a file type devclass, and the only answer I got said they were

Managing Disk File Predefiend Volumes

We bought enough disk to handle our onsite pool. I am currently having my backups go directly to disk. The problem I am having, is that TSM seems to select volumes based on sort order. What ends up happening is that it selects volumes on the same hdisk, until those are exhausted. This gives me

ANR2997W Causing Transaction Failure

Has anyone ever seen ANR2997W cause a transacton failure? Here is a snippet of my log: 03/08/06 14:39:10 ANR2997W The server log is 80 percent full. The server will delay transactions by 3 milliseconds. (SESSION: 152212, PROCESS: 1586)

Predefined File Volumes Not Filling To Capacity

Hi. TSM 5.3.2.3 running on AIX 5.2.5 Yesterday, after formatting about 8TB worth of volumes for a file device class, I defined the volumes to my stgpool. I migrated some data there, and let my backups run last night into the new 8TB space. When I checked this morning, everything ran fine, but

PREShedulecmd situation

We had a problem last night where out POSTSchedulecmd did not run. Checking back, it turned out that between the time the client picked up it's schedule, we had disabled sessions pending installation of an emergency patch on TSM. What the client did was run the PREShedulecmd, then found out the

Re: Serious performance problems with large BUFPOOLSIZE

I saw something very like this. If I increase my bufpool size above 2GB, eventually TSM slows down to a crawl. I called IBM, and they tried to send me to the performance group, so I just told them nevermind, I'll put it back down to 2GB. Matthew Glanville wrote: Some lucky individual (me),

TSM Database Size Growing Since Upgrading to 5.2.4.5

On November 11th, we upgraded our 3 tsm instances from 5.2.1 to 5.2.4.5. Since then, our three databases have grown at an alarming rate. They have grown: 56GB to 75GB (33%, 19Gb growth) 46GB to 65GB (41%, 19Gb growth) 53GB to 63GB (18%, 10Gb growth) Anyone have problems like this? Thanks.

Re: TSM Database Size Growing Since Upgrading to 5.2.4.5

I might have thought that too if it wasn't all 3 instances. I graphed my database sizes back to 2004 (I have them in a mysql database), and it is striking the growth curve since 11/12/2005. Jack Coats wrote: No unusual new clients being added? Retaining more data? Change of include/exclude

Re: TSM Database Size Growing Since Upgrading to 5.2.4.5

Good question, I didn't think of that one. It does appear that expiration is working (at least it says it is working - it is expiring objects, and a fairly normal amount). David Longo wrote: Have your Expirations been running successfully? David Longo [EMAIL PROTECTED] 01/25/06 2:05 PM

Number of Directories in file type devclass

Is there a limit on the number of directories (filesystems) that can be put in a file type device class in TSM 5.3? I looked in the Admin Reference and Guide, and did not see it mentioned there. Thanks.
