Is there a way to determine the number of tapes in a stgpool that
are eligible for reclamation?
I tried the following sql on all our TSM instances:
select stgpool_name, \
count(*) \
from volumes \
where pct_reclaim \ 64 \
: ' = 65'!!!
Yup, if the equal sign is right after the gt sign then you
don't need to escape the gt sign.

This is half plea for help and half rant (grr)

declare a CRITSIT and force IBM to get multiple areas involved.
We are SO frustrated. Sometimes I wonder if the people inside IBM who use TSM
have to use the same TSM support we do.

Yea . . . I resemble that.
I find online documentation like the Info Centers to be ok for finding a single
piece of information when you mostly know what you are looking for. They are
not good for trying to figure out any kind of a broader topic. So I also

Hello,
I just noticed something weird about "q log f=d" on all of our TSM systems.

This is a tough one. On the one hand we want Reclamation to use as many tape
drives as possible, but not consume them all. We also have multiple TSM
instances wanting library resources. The TSM instances are blind to each
others needs. This _IS_ difficult to control.

It's interesting to think about . . . just what is special about what is on
Passport Advantage.
From what I can see, the ONLY thing Passport Advantage provides is a protected
download of the license file. The TSM server itself is fully available from
FixCentral. So, why not just do that,
Hello,
We did a new install of TSM 7.1.4 just to check it out.
(ok, we screwed up a upgrade on a test instance and decided to do a new/clean
install.)
After doing this install, it comes up with these messages:
03/17/16 08:27:06 ANR9649I An EVALUATION LICENSE for IBM System Storage
Trying to remember things is getting harder and harder . . . .
I agree, on Passport Advantage there is no 7.1.4 or 7.1.5 for AIX.
(There IS a 7.1.4 server for Linux and S390.)
So, where did I get AIX 7.1.4 . . . Looks like from Fix Central.
AIX 7.1.4 and 7.1.5 are available on Fix Central.

We've been trying to restore a v6.3.5 TSM server onto a DR server with no
success.
The PROD server is TSM v6.3.5 but the BA client is v7.1.4.
The DR serve is the same, TSM v6.3.5 with BA client v7.1.4.
Is this allowed? Doesn't the API client have to match the TSM server level?
Thanks

Hello,

Well, it's time to rollover our TSM AIX servers. We're purchases new pSeries
chassis that are getting lpar'ed up to replace the existing systems.
New lpars will be AIX v7.
