Hi Sasa, Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, this is not what I'm looking for. Those columns give the at risk interval configuration (see : SET NODEATRISKINTERVAL) for a Node that does not rely on default configuration (see: SET QUERY MONITORSETTINGS).

Move DRM does not chekout after upgrade to v8.1.10
Hi all, I've recently upgraded 3 instances from 8.1.8.200 to 8.1.10 (Linux x86). On all of them, I've encoutered the same issue. Tapes are checked out with a DRM command (using the remove=untileefull option). This has been working fine for year, using various 6.3, 7.1 and the 8.1 server versions. Starting after the upgrade to 8.1.10, the checkout command (launched by move drmedia) now behaves as if we were using a remove=no option : tapes stay in their storage slots and are not move to the bulk (as they should The curent workaround is to checkin (search=yes) those tapes again and then chekout them (remove=bulk). Note that the issue seems to have been solved for 2 of the 3 instances by updating lin_tape to the latest level but the same is inefficient for one of the instance. No clue in actlog ou lin_tape logs... Any idea on where to look at ? Thanks. -- Best regards / Cordialement / مع تحياتي Erwann SIMON

Using multiple CopyContainer Pools
Hi All, The Protect STGPool command using type=local allow to protect a Container Storage Pool to 2 Container-copy Storage Pools (see PROTECTLOCalstgpools parameter of the define/update stgpool command). I started using it with server 8.1.4 and 8.1.5(.000|.100) then I was forced to avoid using it after an upgrade to 8.1.7 because after a few days protect stg type=local stops with the following message (the same problem still exists in 8.1.8.200. ANR3658E PROTECT STGPOOL: Storage pool CONTAINERPOOL is currently in use by replication, repair, protect, encrypt, move operations or remove stgprotection. The workaroung is simple : restarting the instance and the it works again for a few days (2-3). The problem does not occur with only 1 Container-copy Storage Pool. Does someone uses this option that allows to protect to 2 Container-copy Storage Pools simultaneously ? -- Best regards / Cordialement / مع تحياتي Erwann SIMON

Re: AW: [ADSM-L] Move Container (Automatic) filling up the directories
Hi Michael and Uwe Thanks *a lot* for your replies. This is excatly what I was looking for. Did you adjust those options ? How ? I've was unable to find those server options in the Admin Reference Guide and not visible with a standard Q OPT or with a generic Q OPT *DEFR*. I was required to use Q OPT DEFRAGCNTRTRIGGER and Q OPT DEFRAGFSTRIGGER. Both options are set to 50% (default). I've found some words in a 8.1.5 presentation : 8.1.5+ Defrag uses a new path in MOVE CONTAINER process to read in the chunks of a given container and rewrite them via the standard ingest path, redistributing them in available container space Move Container with defrag allows the user to achieve the goals of previous workarounds much more easily Container defrag can be invoked manually, with “MOVE CONTAINER DEFRAG=YES” Auto-defrag engine periodically checks for container fragmentation If containers surpass DEFRAGCNTRTRIGGER & DEFRAGFSTRIGGER thresholds : Automatically runs defrags If % of available filesystem space or the % of container space which is usable/available falls below these thresholds : Auto-defrag will periodically start defrag processes for fragmented containers @Uwe For one of the servers (the smallest one, Est.

Move Container (Automatic) filling up the directories
Hi all, I'm using Directory Container Pools on a couple of servers. Servers are at 8.1.5.100 level. Those servers were using legacy File Pools with deduplication enabled that have been converted into Directory Container Pools. I'm seeing a lot (a lot !) of Move Container (Automatic) that fills up my directories (free space is occupied by Containers in Pending State). Those Containers in Pending State can be as many as the ones in ReadWrite State (reusedelay is set to 4 days). Is there a mean to have more control on this ? Another strange observation regarding fragmentation evaluation. 13.11.2018 13:09:55 ANR4392I CONTAINER DEFRAGMENTATION started processing stgpool PRIM_CONTAINER. Containers are only using 98.12% of 150053.46 GB due to fragmentation. (PROCESS: 14462) and one hour later, fragmentation is higher (with no other process, such as Expire Inventory, that have run) : 13.11.2018 14:08:34 ANR4392I CONTAINER DEFRAGMENTATION started processing stgpool PRIM_CONTAINER.

Re: TS4300 / EMC ML3 usage with TSM 7.1.7 ?
Hi Luc, According to this web page below, Dell EMC ML3 requires Spectrum Protect 8.1.2 (and IBM Device Driver, aka Atape.driver for the library itself). It's the same requirement for IBM TS4300. https://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=ibm10716993#LTO%20Tape%20Libraries To be honest, I've configured once a TS4300 whith TSM 7.1.7 on Windows 2012R2 and it worked.

Re: Why is is dedup cache file not excluded by default ?
Hi all, I think we all agree that backing up this dedup cache fiche is useless and that it can considered as as a best pratice to exclude it since trying to back it up generate retries. Stephan is right when it writes that almost nothing is excluded, except this .TsmCacheDir directory (and system state files excluded by VSS on Windows clients). It seems that it's not an habit. Since the file has a name built frm know informations : DEDUPCACHEPATH option, Server Name and Node Name, I think it could be hardocded without any risk to exlclude any another file. -- Best regards / Cordialement / مع تحياتي Erwann SIMON - Mail original - De: "Stefan Folkerts" <stefan.folke...@gmail.com> À: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Envoyé: Lundi 26 Février 2018 14:26:08 Objet: Re: [ADSM-L] Why is is dedup cache file not excluded by default ?

Hi guys, I just found out the hard way and I would like to share this knowledge before anyone else running this (unsupported) server level runs into the same issue: do NOT upgrade the TSM client to 7.1.8 on a 6.3 server. This client contains a GSKit version (8.0.50.78) which is not compatible with the 6.3 server. As soon as you upgrade the client, you will not be able to back up the TSM database (ANR4588E A database backup configuration might be incorrect) and as soon as you stop your server, you won't be able to start it anymore (ANR1820E The server could not connect to the database manager by using TCP/IP port). After downgrading to the GSKit that comes with the 7.1.6.x clients (8.0.50.66) everything is working again.

Database impact of storage pool convertion
Hi list, Impact on the database size and activty is less when using directory container storage pools (NextGen) compared to using deduplication enabled file storage pools (Legacy). My question is about database size (and activity) during and after the converrstion from deduplication enabled file storage pools to directory container storage pools using the CONVERT STG command. How does the database size evolve ? Does it grow during the process and then reduces ? Does it remains stable ? And how about I/O activity ?

Re: "Compressed data grew" retries?
Tom, In order to be able to use client side LZ4 compression, the server must be at least at 7.1.5 and the client at 7.1.6. Moreover, client-side compression and client-side deduplication must be used and the data must be backed up in a container storage pool. See what the client documentation says about the compression option : The type of compression that the client uses is determined by the combination of compression and client-side data deduplication that is used during backup or archive processing. The following types of compression are used: LZ4 A faster and more efficient compression method that the client uses when client-deduplicated data is sent to an LZ4-compatible container storage pool on the Tivoli Storage Manager server. The server must be at version 7.1.5 or later, and must use container storage pools. Client-side LZ4 compression is used only when client-side data deduplication is enabled. LZW A traditional type of compression that the client uses in any of the following situations: v Client-deduplicated data is sent to traditional (non-container) storage pools on the server. v The client data does not undergo client-side data deduplication. (Does not apply to Data Protection for VMware and Data Protection for Microsoft Hyper-V, in which only client-deduplicated data can be compressed.) -- Best regards / Cordialement / مع تحياتي Erwann SIMON - Mail original - De: "Tom Alverson" <tom.alver...@gmail.com> À: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Envoyé: Vendredi 1 Juillet 2016 05:50:11 Objet: Re: [ADSM-L] "Compressed data grew" retries?

I have been watching an initial TSM backup running for a long time now over a WAN connection (100mbit/sec) and I keep seeing "compressed data grew" followed by a "Retry". Does this mean that for every file that compression increased the size (even 1%) the whole transfer is discarded and it starts over again with the same file (presumably with compression disabled)? If so that is probably hurting my backup speed much more than the compression ever improved it.

autodeploy of 7.1.6 client updates fails
Hi all, I'm trying to deploy 7.1.6 client updates on Linux and Windows boxes using the autodeploy packages from the FTP site. Unfortunately, without success on both platforms (while I succeed to deploy 7.1.4 or earlier versions on the same boxes). On Windows, it fails on extracting installation image for Backup-archive client : only a few folders and files are extracted. Manual extraction from the same packages retrieved from the server works fine. On Linux, it fails on running updatemgr : no updatemgr process is running and the mutex file is left behind. A successfull workaroung is to release the lock (./updatemgr/managemutex Release) and manualy re-run the deployclient .sh script (./deployclient.sh). -- Best regards / Cordialement / مع تحياتي Erwann SIMON

There are roughly 950 clients, all AIX 7.1, using BA client level 7.1.3 I have an upcoming DR test and began thinking about the Operations Center??? The OC is installed on my source server and has become an integral tool for my operators, so if it's not available for the test certainly someone will complain. The DR simulation takes place over 3 days and we will obviously be isolated from the production data center, including the source server and ultimately the Operations Center. My question is; how can I, or is it possible, to make the OC available in the test environment? I would think that IBM has thought this through but I didn't find any documented direction. Thoughts?

The TSM Administrator's Guide has been obsoleted as of v7.1.3. Its priceless collection of how-to information has been scattered to the winds, which basically means it is lost. A pity, because this book had been a model of complete, well-organized, documentation. The "Solution Guides" are suitable only for planning a new TSM installation, and do not address existing TSM sites. Furthermore, they are much too narrow, and do not cover real-world existing TSM customers. For instance, we use a blended disk and tape solution (D2D2D2T) to create a good working compromise between faster restore and storage cost. Following links to topics in the online Information Center is a haphazard process at best, which is never repeatable. There is no Index or Table of Contents for the online doc - so you cannot even see what information is there. Unless you actually log in, there is no way to even leave a "trail of breadcrumbs". Browser bookmarks are useless here, due to IBM's habit of changing URLs frequently. This is an extremely inefficient use of my time in finding out how to do something in TSM. Search is not an acceptable replacement for good organization. Search is necessary, but it cannot stand alone. Building a "collection" is not an answer to this requirement. It still lacks a coherent Index or Table of Contents, so once my collection gets sizeable, it is also unuseable. And with each successive version, I will be required to rebuild my collection from scratch all over again. Despite the fact that it had become fairly large, I humbly ask that the Administrator's Guide be published again, as a single PDF, in v7.1.4.

Re: extending tsm active logs for tsm 6.3.4
Hi Gary, See Administrator's Guide (b_srv_admin_guide_linux.pdf), Chapter 21. Managing the database and recovery log, Increasing the size of the active log : If the log is running out of space, the current transaction is rolled back, and the server issues an error message and halts. You cannot restart the server until the active log size is increased. To increase the size of the active log while the server is halted, complete the following steps: 1. Issue the DSMSERV DISPLAY LOG offline utility to display the size of the active log. 2. Ensure that the location for the active log has enough space for the increased log size. If a log mirror exists, its location must also have enough space for the increased log size. 3. Halt the server. 4. In the dsmserv.opt file, update the ACTIVELOGSIZE option to the new maximum size of the active log, in megabytes. For example, to change the active log to its maximum size of 128 GB, enter the following server option: activelogsize 131072 5. If you plan to use a new active log directory, update the directory name specified in the ACTIVELOGDIRECTORY server option. The new directory must be empty and must be accessible to the user ID of the database manager. 6. Restart the server. Log files of 512 MB are automatically defined until the size specified in the ACTIVELOGSIZE option is reached. If a log mirror exists, log files are also defined automatically. -- Best regards / Cordialement / مع تحياتي Erwann SIMON - Mail original - De: "Gary Lee" <g...@bsu.edu> À: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Envoyé: Lundi 14 Décembre 2015 21:25:47 Objet: [ADSM-L] extending tsm active logs for tsm 6.3.4 Tsm server 6.3.4 under redhat 6.7.

Yes, please, bring the Admin Guide back. -- Best regards / Cordialement / مع تحياتي Erwann SIMON - Mail original - De: "Roger Deschner" <rog...@uic.edu> À: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Envoyé: Samedi 12 Décembre 2015 02:39:28 Objet: [ADSM-L] Bring back TSM Administrator's Guide A great book is gone. The TSM Administrator's Guide has been obsoleted as of v7.1.3. Its priceless collection of how-to information has been scattered to the winds, which basically means it is lost. A pity, because this book had been a model of complete, well-organized, documentation. The "Solution Guides" are suitable only for planning a new TSM installation, and do not address existing TSM sites. Furthermore, they are much too narrow, and do not cover real-world existing TSM customers. For instance, we use a blended disk and tape solution (D2D2D2T) to create a good working compromise between faster restore and storage cost. Following links to topics in the online Information Center is a haphazard process at best, which is never repeatable. There is no Index or Table of Contents for the online doc - so you cannot even see what information is there. Unless you actually log in, there is no way to even leave a "trail of breadcrumbs". Browser bookmarks are useless here, due to IBM's habit of changing URLs frequently. This is an extremely inefficient use of my time in finding out how to do something in TSM. Search is not an acceptable replacement for good organization. Search is necessary, but it cannot stand alone. Building a "collection" is not an answer to this requirement. It still lacks a coherent Index or Table of Contents, so once my collection gets sizeable, it is also unuseable. And with each successive version, I will be required to rebuild my collection from scratch all over again. Despite the fact that it had become fairly large, I humbly ask that the Administrator's Guide be published again, as a single PDF, in v7.1.4.

Hello Michael, Considering the number of objects backed up compared to the number of objects inspected, setting the resource utilization to 10 should not be helpfull.

Re: Backing up large folder
Aou can follow this Andy Raibeck's tip : http://www.backupcentral.com/phpBB2/two-way-mirrors-of-external-mailing-lists-3/ibm-tsm-13/virtual-mount-points-for-windows-clients-101311/ For non-Unix/Linux operating systems, there is no virtualmountpoint feature in TSM. However, one way to accomplish what you want is to define shares for the directories you want to back up, then add the share names to your domain.

Re: TSM, Linux and VMs
Hello Mike, I guess you're using the old VCB backup modes (with filelevel option). VCB allows image level (fullvm) for any guest operating system, but file-level is limited to Windows guest operating system. See this datasheet from VMware : http://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/consolidated_backup_datasheet.pdf So, you won't be able to perform off-host file-level backup of your Linux guests. The only available solutions are : - installing a Linux B/A client, but i'ts an in guest istallation. - installing TSM for VE that allows file-level recovery from an forever incremental block-level image backup. -- Best regards / Cordialement / مع تحياتي Erwann SIMON - Mail original - De: Michael S Ryder michael_s.ry...@roche.com À: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Envoyé: Mercredi 1 Juillet 2015 05:13:03 Objet: [ADSM-L] TSM, Linux and VMs Folks: Is it possible to perform off-host, file-level incremental backups of Linux VMs from a Linux proxy or data mover?

Re: Backup and restore question
Hi Robert, I think that -incremental and –deletefiles are not available (or ignored) with -imagetofile. It makes sense since -incremental would lead to a file restore whereas -imagetofile leads to a bloc restore.
