TSM 5.2 : restore behind a firewall, with sessioninitiation serveronly ?
Hi List, Something looking strange to me, maybe someone could better my understanding ... We are actually testing to possibility of performing backups from an AIX server having TSM client 5.2, and located in our DMZ, without opening a port in the firewall. We successfully used the "sessioninitiation serveronly" in the client dsm.sys, and data is now backuped. Problem is now to restore the data, as the Backup-Archive Clients Installation and User's Guide specifies that "By setting sessioninitiation option to serveronly, the command line client, native GUI, and Web client GUI cannot be used." Does that mean that I'm unable to restore the data without opening a port in the firewall, or is there any way performing a server initiated restore that I would not be aware of ? Please provide me some information on how you achieve this, if using the same kind of setup ... Thanks in advance !

Hi Karel, Thanks for your answer : it was so easy I did not thought to it ! Shame on me ... Anyway this considerably reduces the usability of the product : no preview for restores, no pick list ... All those little fancy features that are making a TSM admin's life much more glittering and fun ;-) Hopefully TSM developpers will think to this ...

Re: tsm select question ?
Interesting...I just installed TSM 5.2.2.1 for a client and the SHOW VOLUMEUSAGE command doesn't work for some nodes. They have 4 Exchange servers, each has 2 nodenames defined for it. The SHOW VOLUMEUSAGE on the nodename assigned to the TDP backups works just fine, but if I run it against the non-TDP nodename I get no results. A select on the volumeusage table gives me the information though. I would open a PMR with IBM/Tivoli, but SHOW commands are undocumented.

generate backupset
Hello everyone! I was trying to create an administrative schedule to generate a backupset, but it won't let me. It states that I have an invalid parameter which is the node name of the server that I am trying to create the backupset from. Do I have to create a command script and then run the script through an administrative job? Thanks in advance! Joni
Re: Automated DRM volume handling LTO 3582 library
Our instructions to the operations staff is when tapes come back they keep them stacked near the library. When they vault as many tapes come out, they put that many scratch tapes in. The CHECKIN LIBV is scheduled to checkin any/all tapes STATUS=SCRATCH in the I/O door (SEARCH=BULK) or SEARCH=YES for libraries that don't have any I/O door. In that case the operators just open the library, pull out the tapes called for and put a scratch tape back in that slot AND NO OTHERS! There was a site where the operator would fill all empty slots and not look to see if there were any tapes mounted in drives. Library goes to put the tape back in the home slot and finds a tape there. Kinda hoses things up!

Re: TSM license audit not equal number of nodes

Re: TSM license audit not equal number of nodes
OK, wait a second... When you say you "... ran a license audit ..." to see what you are using now, do you mean that in the generic sense, i.e. "I ran QUERY LICENSE" to audit my license usage? Or do you mean that you actually ran the AUDIT LICENSE command? If the former is the case, then go ahead and try the AUDIT LICENSE command.

Re: TSM 5.2 : restore behind a firewall, with sessioninitiation s erveronly ?
If we are dreaming, I would love to have the function of an old backup product we used at another company that allowed users/helpdesk to do their own restores but not mess up others stuff. I worked on an [insert old mainframe here] that had a great restore gui (ok, full screen on green screen terminal) that users could use to restore things themselves. It allowed everyone to see all the files they had R or RW access to and to be able to restore them anywhere they wanted that they currently have RW access to, all without helpdesk or systems intervention. For most users, it meant anything they could 'see', they could restore to their home directory. Including inactive files :) ... they could also archive but we never advertised this feature (and we put a 10 year limit on that anyway). For the helpdesk, it meant that anything that they could 'see' including user directory, they could restore. Kept down the calls to the 'data management' crew. If any IBM TSM type would like to talk about this kind of feature for a possible TSM UserGui enhancement, give me a call :) ...

Re: Windows XP, ASR, and ANS1468E
Thank you to those that provided suggestions yesterday. I added exclude lines to my DSM.OPT file to take care of all the files that are in use. That cleaned up those error messages, but did not help with the ASR error. I'm still getting the ANS1468E when my client attempts to backup the automated system recovery files. Below is a copy of the entire dsmerror.log file from last night: 03/09/2004 00:08:33 ANS1228E Sending of object 'C:' failed 03/09/2004 00:08:33 ANS1468E Backing up Automated System Recovery (ASR) files failed. No files will be backed up. 03/09/2004 00:14:04 ANS1512E Scheduled event 'BACKUP' failed. Return code = 12. As mentioned previously, I cannot do an ASR backup manually either (via backup asr at the DSMC command line). At this point I don't know what else to do but remove SYSTEMOBJECT from my backup list. Don't really want to do that for all the obvious reasons, but it wouldn't be the end of the world if that was the only solution. If this client were to ever die, I would probably prefer to do a ground-up rebuild anyway, rather than an ASR restore. Thanks again for the help!

Re: Windows XP, ASR, and ANS1468E
If you have the QUIET option set, comment it out so you get verbose output. Then see if you can you reproduce the error by running: dsmc backup asr If you can reproduce it that way, then try this: dsmc backup asr -traceflags=service -tracefile=tsmtrace.txt Collect the dsmc output (*all* of it!), dsmerror.log and tsmtrace.txt. Contact IBM support for further assistance (sending them the collected data). They can review the trace and see where the backup is failing. If the above method does not result in a reproduction of the problem, they add the following to your client options file: tracefile tsmtrace.txt traceflags service If QUIET is in effect, comment that out as well. Restart the scheduler, wait for the scheduled event to run. After it runs (hopefully with the failure you describe), stop the scheduler, collect dsmsched.log, dsmerror.log, and tsmtrace.txt, and contact IBM support. Take out the above tracing options, reinstate QUIET if you wish, and restart your scheduler.

Re: TSM license audit not equal number of nodes
I ran the AUDIT LICENSE command first, then I ran the QUERY LICENSE command (and got the 108). I ran QUERY NODES and got 78. The SELECT COUNT(*) FROM NODES WHERE PLATFORM_NAME<>'(?)' command returned 75. I have 3 nodes defined that have never contacted the server, 2 test definitions and 1 real brand new node, thus the difference of 3 there.

I believe that a wrinkle in this is the TSM behavior of maintaining a count of license use attempts, regardless of validity. Query License will reflect a count, which may be artificially high.

CAD TSM errors - Win Client on W2003 Server CAD Error
Nagy, I submitted this error help request in January, but got little response.. probably because no one experienced it yet. I'm a brand new TSM users so all is new.. and our Win servers are all at 2003 now. One response came through but it was something I had already tried. But I think being pioneers with 2003 & the latest TSM, we are just getting arrows in the back (including you now). IBM may help, but I haven't changed IBM Tivoli support to my name yet from an ex employee. This only effects remote webaccess to do backups/restores (via port 1581), but local or terminal services access on the 2003 sever console work fine. It appears it may be just a registry fix CadSchedName registry value is empty ? Page 17 in the Dec-03 5.2.2 manual, or page 14 in the older 5.2 manual "Configuring the Web Client" lists the steps. I have to now turn the CAD service off after or it tries to start it every 10 minutes.. see dsmerror.log. Anyway, I just updated my Win2003 server to TSM Windows Client version 5.2.2.5 (connecting with a Linux 5.2.2.1 TSM server, but this doesn't matter) and still the same error.

Re: TSM license audit not equal number of nodes
>So, are you saying that if I had no new node related activity in 30 days, >that these 2 numbers would eventually match and be accurate? Nancy - I would like to believe that. :-) If memory serves me: as of a couple of years ago at least, the license management was not done by TSM software, but by third-party software, with TSM having only indirect control of it; so what we see may not be exactly what we would like to see/need to see. As you've no doubt seen in many postings about licenses, too much surrounding it is like trying to read tea leaves... There isn't as much computer science in this as we might expect. Richard Sims

Re: Can I safely stop an AUDITDB FIX=YES once started???? URGENT PLEA SE
I suppose this could depend on whether or not it has actually found any inconsistencies. Presumably you are running an audit DB because you do have problems anyway, so stopping it wouldn't be in your best interest. Anyway I am fortunate enough to have a test environment with a very small DB. I have tried running an auditdb fix=yes and ctrl-C it and it ignores it. Doing a straight kill is also ignored. The only way of stopping it was to do a kill -9 I started TSM up afterwards and it did start with no errors BUT (and this is a very big but) the database had no problems before I ran the auditdb. (fyi - AIX 4.3.3 and TSM 5.1.7.2) I am guessing that your audit is taking far longer than anticipated and that you need to get TSM up and running again asap. If the auditdb was a suggestion from IBM support then your safest and probably only plan of action is to liase with them and inform them of your predicament and any findings (inconsistences) of the auditdb so far and see how they suggest to proceed, failure to do so could leave you in hope that your database recovery technique is well tested and proven! However you proceed, all the best.

Re: TSM license audit not equal number of nodes
OK... well, then I don't know what the discrepancy is. There could be some problem in the code related to licensing; something is ringing a vague bell in my head about nodes registered earlier that have since been removed, but the license count was not decremented. But I can't say for sure. Talk to your sales rep. While 4.1 is no longer supported, the sales rep might be able to engage support enough to at least answer the question. Off the top of my head, I don't know/recall.

We have been running on RedHat with our own hardware without a problem (over a year). It seems that TSM is very particular to the kernel.

Re: CAD TSM errors - Win Client on W2003 Server CAD Error
I've seen this on other windows boxes before. It happens to me sometimes if I try to install the Scheduler Daemon via the Wizard, and tell it to use CAD to start, but don't try to install the Web Client via the Wizard, and then adding a 'managedservices schedule webclient' in the dsm.opt file. The 'webclient' part of the managedservices line tells the Client Acceptor Daemon to control the Web Client, but if the Web client hasn't been added via the wizard, then the Remote Agent service won't have been installed and the registry entry that CAD looks for to know which Agent service to start won't exist. The safest way to install the web client and scheduler is: - install web client via wizard - install scheduler service telling it to use CAD If you do it in that order you shouldn't have problems. To fix your current problem, try just uninstalling and reinstalling the Web Client via the Setup Wizard. If that doesn't work or the wizard won't let you, try this: - remove the Scheduler service - remove the Web Client server - remove any other TSM client services you may see - install web client via wizard - install scheduler service via wizard. You may need to use dsmcutil to remove offending services. Open a command line and go to: c:\program files\tivoli\tsm\baclient run 'dsmcutil list' to get a list of the services TSM knows about. then do: dsmcutil remove /name:"Service Name in quotes with correct caps" /node:"nodename tied to service" for each service. That'll clean it up. Then do the reinstall of the services in the right order good luck!

Session lost
Hi, Using TSM 5.1.6 (French) on W2K ( aiming to change to 5.2.2.1 on RH3ES) for 30 W2K clients, we have very often sessions lost ANS1809W. These session losts last very long, and arrive several times in the same night. So our backups cannot complete. Every day we have 25% of our computer not able to complete. The message book says: ANS1809W Session is lost; initializing session reopen procedure. Explanation: The session with the server has been lost. System Action: The system will attempt to reestablish session with ITSM. User Response: None. which doesn't give us any chance to correct the problem. Do you what this session lost is due to, what are we able to do to correct them? Sicenrly, Magalie Siaud.

Re: copystgpools and mount points
Hello, You know what, I went thru this myself few days ago. Trying to figure out why a TDP client was mounting two tapes with setup with a single channel backup. 1st time the backup failed because it failed due to mount point.. it was set to 1. Increased the mount point to 2 (Maximum Mount Points Allowed) and the backup completed of course mounted 2 tapes. Sure enough one was for onsite pool and other was for offsite pool. This seems like a cool feature.. but due to limited # of drives decided against using the feature. I had. Ended up updating COPYSTGpools with blank. Based on my experience, the answer is yes. 2 or more.. Sung Y.

Using a 4.1.3 client on a 4.1 netware server, we get the following when trying to use the admin account with full root privs: 03/09/2004 13:42:54 ANS1874E Login denied to NetWare Target Service Agent '[TREENAME1]'. 03/09/2004 13:42:54 ANS1874E Login denied to NetWare Target Service Agent '[TREENAME1]'. 03/09/2004 13:48:21 ANS1874E Login denied to NetWare Target Service Agent '[TREENAME2]'. 03/09/2004 13:48:21 ANS1874E Login denied to NetWare Target Service Agent '[TREENAME2]'. if we use an account that has separate privs to the trees, we can log in fine, but cannot backup the NDS and the web GUI doesn't show the NDS. we've confirmed that the admin account we're trying to use does indeed still work and the password is correct. = When you submit a NetWare for use in backing up both local files and NDS data, you have to use a top-level NetWare ID (the one with a period at the beginning of it). A local privileged account won't be able to back up NDS data, in much the same way that a Windows local admin ID can't be used to backup data to a remote drive. -- Mark Stapleton

Re: TSM Scheduling
Are you running POLLING or PROMPTED? I could see this in POLLING and the schedule randomization percentage. If you're running PROMPTED, i would check your server activity log to see if you can identify the delay.

Restore Volume Problems
Recently I had a tape get destroyed in a tape drive. I did the typical procedure in the Tivoli Admin Manual to restore the volume. All the tapes specified in the restore vol x prev=yes where brought on site. However after we did the restore I got a warning "ANR1256W" regarding some files couldn't be restored. Doing a restore vol x prev=yes doesn't show any volumes that are needed to restore it. Reclamation has not occured since the tape was destroyed. The tape is beyond repair and can't do a move data from it. Has anyone run across this? Any recommendations? TIA Dave
Shared tape library issue
Hi All I have two TSM instances running 5.2.2 on the same AIX 5.1 Image in 64 bit. (recently upgraded from 4.3.2) There are a couple of shared logical libraries 3590 on 3494 and 3592 on the same 3494. QHADSM2 is the library owner and TSMXIBM is the library client. I've just moved the TSMXIBM's data from 3590 to 3592. That went fine. When I finished , I deleted the volumes on TSMXIBM using delete volume. Q libvol on TSMXIBM shows nothing. However q libvol on QHADSM2 show that the volumes are still owned by TSMXIBM. upd libvol finishes with an ok indication, but does not change the ownership. I even checked the volumes out and back in and they still come back with the wrong ownership. What can I do to change this? tsm: QHADSM2>q libvol atl r00579 q libvol atl r00579 Library Name Volume Name Status Owner Last Use Home Device Element Type --- -- -- - --- -- ATL R00579 Private TSMXIBM tsm: QHADSM2>upd libvol atl r00579 owner='' status=pri upd libvol atl r00579 owner='' status=pri ANR8445I Volume R00579 in library ATL updated. tsm: QHADSM2>q libvol atl r00579 q libvol atl r00579 Library Name Volume Name Status Owner Last Use Home Device Element Type --- -- -- - --- -- ATL R00579 Private TSMXIBM tsm: QHADSM2>upd libvol atl r00579 owner=QHADSM2 status=pri upd libvol atl r00579 owner=QHADSM2 status=pri ANS8001I Return code 27. For this last one the log shows ANR8969E The owner of volume R00579 can not be updated to ownerQHADSM2. Nothing else was seen there.

Accessing to a WORM Optical Library
Hi, We have a customer request to import into TSM 6 Terabytes of WORM optical volumes. WORM volumes could not be writable, apparently we could access to those volumes like a windows file system. How could TSM be able to know about the existence of those files (like doing an inventory and cataloging those files)? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Best Regards Pedro
Re: copystgpools and mount points
Deb, Yes, in this case you have 2 mount point in use. Regards, Karel -Oorspronkelijk bericht- Van: Debbie Lane [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Verzonden: woensdag 10 maart 2004 1:36 Aan: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Onderwerp: copystgpools and mount points If mynode is backing up to onsite-tape-pool which has COPYSTGpools=offsite-tape-pool COPYContinue=yes Then 2 tapes are mounted during mynode backup, one for backup and one for copy. Does this mean, I used 2 mount points for mynode? So mynode definition should have maximum mount points allowed=2 (or more)? Thanks, Deb
