Hi All, We have a Sev 1 PMR opened at IBM since Monday and at this time still no answer.... Here is the situation : We have implemented one year ago MSSQL TDP, first in 6.4 and after we migrated to 7.1.4.1 in order to backup MSSQL AlwaysOn instances. Backups (Full and logs) are running fine. We need to be able to keep backups for only 31 days. We only use Legacy backups, no VSS backups at all. Restoration are running 'fine ' (meaning they can be done). But we have faced an issue during the first step when the TDP requests the objects list to the TSM instance. For exemple, it can take up to 6H30 !!!! After some investigations it appears that on the TSM instance, none of the objects become inactive. So, none of them expire correctly and by the way reclaimed. For exemple :
select NODE_NAME, FILESPACE_NAME, STATE, TYPE, BACKUP_DATE, DEACTIVATE_DATE, CLASS_NAME from backups where NODE_NAME='MYNODE_TDP' will show things like : MYNODE_TDP PXXXX\data\0001 ACTIVE_VERSION FILE 2015-12-31 17:30:18.000000 MC_PROD_LOG_SQL So neither in 6.4 version or 7.1.4.1 version an expiration have occurred. Management class and copygroups : Policy Domain Name: DOM_PROD Policy Set Name: ACTIVE Mgmt Class Name: MC_PROD_LOG_SQL Default Mgmt Class ?: No Description : MC for MSSQL Space Management Technique: None Auto-Migrate on Non-Use: 0 Migration Requires Backup?: Yes Migration Destination: SPACEMGPOOL Last Update by (administrator): ADMIN Last Update Date/Time: 04-09-2014 16:05:23 Managing profile: Changes Pending: No Associated copygroup : Policy Domain Name: DOM_PROD Policy Set Name: ACTIVE Mgmt Class Name: MC_PROD_LOG_SQL Copy Group Name: STANDARD Copy Group Type: Backup Versions Data Exists: 31 Versions Data Deleted: 1 Retain Extra Versions: No Limit Retain Only Version: 31 Copy Mode: Modified Copy Serialization: Static Copy Frequency: 0 Copy Destination: STG_DISK_PRD_DAT Table of Contents (TOC) Destination: Last Update by (administrator): MYADMIN Last Update Date/Time: 04-09-2014 16:12:00 Managing profile: Changes Pending: No So at this time, we have a real production issue : * Impossible to match the requested SLA * An incredible number of objects stored on TSM instance * No idea of the root cause and how to sole the problem Any help would be really appreciated, I will summarize. Have a great day, Emmanuel ========================================================= Ce message et toutes les pieces jointes (ci-apres le "message") sont confidentiels et susceptibles de contenir des informations couvertes par le secret professionnel.
