Re: ADSM database backup to a file.

2001-04-15 Thread France, Don G (Pace)

There are specific-path references, and file-system-dependent things in the
TSM data base - which makes each server you install PLATFORM-SPECIFIC.
So... the short answer is "no".

Hi ,

Can I also create this 'flatfile' on a AIX system ( server-a ) 
 and restore the server on a Solaris system ( server-b ) ?

I would like to use this solaris-adsm/tsm- server only for a quick restore 
of data previously backed up on server-a which uses copy-Storagepools 
via server-server on a third system- (server-c)  and I don't want to use 
this solaris system for backup, because it only has disks and no library 
... someone using such a configuration -or is this quite anomalous ?

( Szenario : server-a and Clients from this server-a 
(with 'client-data-copys-send-to-server-c' ) 
are completely destroyed - then trying to restore latest 
active backups for the Clients as fast as possible on server-b using
just the copy from server-c )  


Thanks in advance  for any hints !

Check your clientopts... or, better yet, do a "show inclexcl" from an

are added to the bottom of the list, so I would ensure no "include" is in

Re: Question on del volhist

2001-04-15 Thread Prather, Wanda

OK,
I ran a DELETE VOLHIST for all record types all the way back to January.

I checked on the oldest volumes in my OFFSITE copypool, which are marked
VAULT by DRM.

They no longer have ANY entry in the volume history file; running
 select * from volhistory where volume_name='xx' gets no hits at all,
but
 Q DRMEDIA * still shows that volume xx is marked VAULT.

So I still believe that removing STGNEW/STGDELETE via DELETE VOLHIST has NO
effect on storage pool volumes.  But it will make to "disappear" volumes
that are tracked ONLY via VOLUMEHISTORY, including DBBACKUP, DBSNAPSHORT,
and EXPORT entries.

Yikes, I didn't know that!  Thanks for pointing it out.

If you think you have tapes disappearing and don't want to do a manual
audit, you can write an audit program/script.

1)Pull a list of tapes that are physically in the library:  q libv
2)Pull a list of tapes that are in DRM VAULT status:  q drmedia *
wherest=vault
3)Create a list of tapes that SHOULD be accounted for (either generate a
tape range, if it's contiguous, or build a static list in a file).

Have your script compare the volsers in list (3) to list (1) + (2).

ANything that is on list 3, but isn't in either list (1) or (2), is MIA.
It's much easier to go to the vault looking for a specific VOLSER, than to
audit everything in there...

I also run a script that compares (1) to (2) at least once a month, to make
sure everything that was supposed to go to the vault actually did...

Okay .. since we're talking del volhist ...

Can someone clarify this point with the del volhist ?

  If I am using scratch tapes (no private tapes), and I am using the DR
Module.   It seems to me that if I have a DR tape, offsite, and empty (in
retrieve state) and I delete the volhist entry,   the tape seems to
disappear totally from view. (i.e. a  "q drm" command will no longer show
it).  I believe that scratch tapes will disappear if they are empty ... not
a big deal if you know which ones they are, but if they disappear from view
before you bring them back on site,  how would you find them (without
performing a manual offsite audit) ?  (It is my understanding that tapes
change from pending to empty "reuse" number of days (exactly) after they
have gone pending.  So you could have tapes changing from pennding to empty
any time "3" days from the time the expiration freed it up.)

  How is anyone handling this (or are you doing what I'm doing and not
deleting the volhist) ?   Should I run my expiration weekly instead of daily
?  Then I would know when my tapes would be changing to empty.

Don't over think it.  Remember, information about volumes is in the database
too and really, the only volume history record you are concerned about is
the one indicating the most recent db backup tape.  I routinely run, like
daily, a delete volhist type=all todate=today-30.

TDP for Domino problems with TSM server?

2001-04-15 Thread Tim Williams
Title: TDP for Domino problems with TSM server?





I am having a unusual problem with a TDP client and TSM server. 
Does anyone know of any problems with TDP for Domino and TSM servers below 4.1 ?


I am upgrading a NT client that has TSM 3.7.2.18 and the TDP for Domino. 
After I upgrade the 3.7.2.18 version to 4.1.2.12 and kick off a TDP for domino backup of a database it crashes our TSM server. 

I have tested this on TSM versions of 3.7.1, 3.7.2 & 3.7.4.
There are no error msgs in the activity log, just a connection comment.
04/13/2001 10:37:51 ANR0406I Session 50 started for node DOM_GSBS3WM (TDP Domino NT) (Tcp/Ip 10.34.98.91(1190)).  
04/13/2001 10:50:33 ANR1412W Volume 034228 access mode is "unavailable".  
04/13/2001 10:50:33 ANR1412W Volume 034202 access mode is "unavailable".  
04/13/2001 10:50:33 ANR1414W Volume 034200 access mode is "read-only" due to previous write error.    
04/13/2001 10:50:33 ANR1414W Volume 034264 access mode is "read-only" due to previous write error.    


If I backup to a TSM 4.1 client there are no problems.


If I clean off the TDP for Domino client before upgrading the flatfile client, then install the TDP client I can backup to any version server.

Any hint/guess/comments/answer would be helpful


Thanks

AW: file name too long when?

2001-04-15 Thread sal Salak Juraj

up to my knowledge,
TSM respects the limits of underlying file system.

A years ago I had similar problem,
it turned out to be caused by really too long names,
too long in terms of NTFS.

However, we were able to create such long names in NT with following
scenario:
mount a directory , e.g. c:\tmp\ under drive letter (D:).
Now create files under d:. Limits apply to sum of directory name length plus

file name length. Create file with maximum file length.
Now access same file using c:\tmp path.
In this case, the file name increased by length("c:\tmp"),
thus went beyond allowe limits.

I forgot the exact limit,
I do not know exact versions of NT where this behaviour 
apply and whether it changed in later version,
so you only can check whether this might be your problem.

Library audit

2001-04-15 Thread Gill, Geoffrey L.

After returning today from a weeks worth of SS52B training I decided to
check my library to see it's status. I find there are 11 volumes that show
up with the following command:
mtlib -l /dev/lmcp0 -qI, which are supposed to be in the vault. Of the 11 I
know 4 are not physically in the vault but the other 7 are. If they are out
of the library then why does this command show them as in? DRM shows all 11
in the vault. If I try to eject them TSM says they are not in the library.

I tried to audit the library but I didn't see any synchronization between
the library manager and TSM: (From the readme)
If TSM detects inconsistencies, the server updates its inventory to
reflect the current state of the library. TSM deletes missing volumes and
updates moved volume locations. TSM does not automatically add new volumes;
you must check in new volumes with the CHECKIN LIBVOLUME command.

Maybe this doesn't talk to the anything except itself, I don't understand
that if the tape is truly out of the library why does the mtlib command show
it's in? And if the tape is really in the library why doesn't TSM update the
DRM status?

Any ideas from anyone?

First things first. Install NT service pack 6 and upgrade TSM to the
latest server (4.1.3, I think)

Your base problem is that the OS doesn't recognize the library. Until
you get that resolved, TSM will never see it.

Try this. Go to the device applet in Control Panel. Look for an entry
called 'adsmscsi'. If it is not running, start it. See if that does the
trick.

For each of your DESTROYED volumes, do RESTORE VOLUME PREVIEW=YES.
It will show you which of the offsite volumes is needed to rebuild the

Bring back the volumes shown in PREVIEW.
Do RESTORE VOLUME on the onsite damaged cartridges, which will copy data

Once that's all done, your offsite volumes will to back to reclaiming

Hi:
Our problem with drives on our newly fibre attached 3590 drives was

However, we still have some 40 offsite copypool volumes that will not

the volumes marked destroyed.

Any suggestions as to how to complete reclamation on these copypool volumes?

Re: file name too long when?

2001-04-15 Thread Chibois, Herve

Hi Peter,

Which versions (client/servers) and platforms are you using ?

If I remember, 255-chars are the max length for NT filenames in *SM,
as in Windows ...

Can not checkout the tape through scheduled job

2001-04-15 Thread Ganu Sachin, IBM

Hi,

A query about TSM Administrative scheduling.

We have TSM ,configured on AIX 4.3.3. I want to schedule a task which will
checkout the volume. The volume is used for tsm database backup. When I
define a new administrative task for checkout, I am getting following
error. The command is used in the scheduling task is " CHECKOUT LIBVOLUME
LIB0 TSK071 CHECKLABEL=NO FORCE=NO REMOVE=NO". I do not want to set FORCE
option to YES.

But if, I run the same command from server command prompt, command executed
successfully.

ERROR :-
"ANR2755E DEFINE SCHEDULE or UPDATE SCHEDULE parameter CMD='CHECKOUT
LIBVOLUME LIB0 TSK071 CHECKLABEL=NO  FORCE=NO REMOVE=NO' - not eligible for
scheduling. "

Pls tell me whether it is possible to schedule the administrative task for
checking out the volume, if yes pls explain.


Thanks in advance

Sachin Ganu



TSM client for Linux/390?

2001-04-15 Thread Judy Warren

Hey Folks,

Does anyone know if/where the TSM client for Linux/390 can be downloaded?
>From the archives I see that it used to be available at:

ftp://service.boulder.ibm.com/storage/tivoli-storage-management/maintenance/client/v4r1/Linux/v412/390/

but I can't find it there anymore... :-(

Re: Archive problems with TSM version 4

2001-04-15 Thread Pearson, Dave

We had the same problem,  One of archives that normally run for 2 Hours ran
for 16 hours on TSM 4.1.2 Server.  We had to go back to TSM 4.1.0 and the
Archive ran normal again.  I have an open PMR on this.  Your the third
person who mentioned this here.  Please call this in to Tivoli Support.
They think we are the only one with the problem.

Should LOADDB take this long?

2001-04-15 Thread William Boyer

TSM 3.7.3.0 running on OS/390 2.9

Last night our automated processes to shut the system down didn't take into
account that TSM would take a few extra minutes to halt due to reclamation
running. The automation script ended up taking TCPIP and CA-TLMS and
DFSMSRmm (in warn mode) down while TSM was still up and trying to close out
his tape processing. TSM ended up abending with a EC6. After our downtime,
TSM wouldn't come back up. It would sit there in a CPU loop with no I/O. The
last message in the joblog was "ANR0306I Recovery log volume mount in
progress." WOuld come up any farther. I managed to get an DUMPDB to run and
it took only 1/2 hour and dumped over 78million database entries for a total
of 6.9MB. I then did a FORMAT for all the db/log volumes and started the
LOADDB last night at 20:15. It is still running and it is now 22 hours later
and has only processed 70million of those database entries.

I searched the archives, but there wasn't much on LOADDB. Should LOADDB take
this long when the DUMPDB only took 1/2hour? Good thing this is a holiday
weekend or the users and managers would be more upset than they
are. I tell them, Hey it wasn't my shutdown script that corrupted the
system!!!

Also, if anyone has any ideas on how I could have averted having to do the
DUMP/LOADDB processes I would be more than happy to hear them. I just
couldn't think of any way to bypass the recovery log processing during
startup, or to have the load cleared by itself.

TIA,
Bill Boyer

Re: Should LOADDB take this long?

2001-04-15 Thread Adolph Kahan

I assume you mean 78 million entries for a total of 6.9GB. Then yes it does
take that long to do a LOADDB. I've heard of slightly larger databases
taking over 48 hours to reload.

I'm on 286 Million entries after 73 hours.

How do you ascertain how many entries in a DB?
