NAS NDMP backups using a copy pool
Hello everyone, I recently upgraded a TSM AIX 5.3 server to 5.5.1.1 and would like to begin utilizing the copy pools for our offsite backups. I've been searching in the 5.5 manuals for good documentation on how to set this up and then fold it into our DRM plan, but I'm not finding much. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks in advance!

Thanks in advance! in order to do this, make sure there are no paths defined from your filer to your drives, only in that case will the TSM server use NDMP via the LAN and use the normal storage hierarchy (so you'll need to setup your ndmp nodes to backup to a 'normal' storagepool (DISK) Now that the data is coming into the normal hierarchy you can do the usual stuff. chapter 7 of the admin guide is your best reference: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tivihelp/v1r1/topic/com.ibm.itsmaixn.doc/anragd55172.htm#nscfg Joni Moyer Highmark Storage Systems, Storage Mngt Analyst III Phone Number: (717)302-9966 Fax: (717) 302-9826 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Met vriendelijke groeten, Remco Post [EMAIL PROTECTED] +31 6 248 21 622

My NAS backup scripts looks like serial backup node NAS /fs1 mode=full wait=yes . backup node NAS /fsx mode=full wait=yes backup stgpool nasprimary nascopy The NAS unit backups over the SAN and creates the copies over the SAN.
