He TSM'ers,
Has anyone any success connecting to the TSM database using the JDBC-ODBC
bridge and the TSM ODBC drivers? I have set bot system and user datasources
using the TSM ODBC driver, and I am then attmepting to access this from Java
using the JDBC-ODBC bridge.
Currently I am using this
Hi Ppl,
I'm getting somehwere, but the DB access through jdbc:odbc: - Access
databse - TSMdatabase is incredibly slow.
I have been told that it may help to use a native JDBC inteface; I don't
think there is one for JDBC TSM, but maybe someone knows differently?
) from db,log
(removing the : where access='UNAVAILABLE')
It works fine!
Is it me, or TSM?
Thanks,

Hi TSM'ers
Does anyone know the difference between a full DB backup and an incremental
DB backup while running in rollforward mode?
Currently, I can't see why they are different.. A full DB backup will clear
the log in rollforward mode and any changes from that point onward are
recorded as
Just to clarify, I understand that the incremntal backup under rollforward
mode does not save the complete DB as a full backup does; What I don't
understand is why the incremental does not clear the log.
