Re: How to reclaim FILLING volumes

2007-10-09 Thread Ochs, Duane
I ran into a similar issue and found a new STG was defined and the new default for collocate is group. I changed that to none. Then did a move data on every volume in the filling state. I reviewed every STG for all 4 TSM servers and did not find that issue but did find a number of low utilized

Tapes with a status of filling.

Any quick ideas on why I'm seeing an increase on volumes with low usage, no errors and a status of filling ? I think it has to do with my migrations getting completed and the thresholds being set to 0 for longer than necessary. Thanks, Duane

This is what I got from my vendor on the subject. Also, your current licenses will be converted to units. Similar to what happened when TSM went from its old model of licensing to the processor based licenses. The one thing I find interesting is that they go by 100s of units which seems to leave

Dsmc sched can be used for the scheduling service of the backup job for the Exchange TDP. You can not set up dsmcad to restore or backup an Exchange client. That is only for launching the web based gui for BA backup and archive functions. Goran what are you trying to do or what is not working ?

You should use a unique nodename for your exchange TSM instance. Kick off the tdpexc gui select the restore tab. You should be prompted for your password. Enter it then it will be saved in the client registry. To set up a properly scheduled exchange backup job you must first create the schedule
