DB2 is supported on HACMP. I've developed (but not tested yet) a setup for a manual fail-over of TSM 6.1 using LVM mirroring of the database and logs across two sites. A hint is to look at commands like 'db2 catalog' and look into files as 'db2nodes.cfg'. I think that the db2 database is more robust, and less likely to be corrupted after a crash than the old tsm 5 database. > Any insight appreciated! > > W -- Met vriendelijke groeten/Kind regards, Remco Post
Re: Q about TSM 6.1 DB and hardware replication
Grigori, It should not be necessary to stop your TSM database. DB2 can suspend IO with the command set write suspend for db you can then sync your mirrors and issue set write resume for db This will need a DB2 connection rather than a TSM command line, and the suspend and resume should be issued from the same connection. How easy is it to access the DB2 instance directly under 6.1? Regards Steve Steven Harris TSM Admin Finally prospectively employed again after six months!

In this case, TSM database, logs and configuration files are in sync and they are in sync with disaster copy of data. I think, for TSM 6.1 you need to use the same procedure or something similar, because DB2 will definitely escalate all problems with online mirroring. Kindest regards, Grigori G.

Re: Q about TSM 6.1 DB and hardware replication
Hello Steve, I have mentioned in my message my TSM Server Version is 5.5.4.0. So I do not have DB2 at all now in production. I am testing TSM 6.1.2.1 now, but I have not reached disaster recovery testing yet. I hate DB2 administration after managing application called MERVA (similar to SWIFT) in the past. I only hope we will not need to administrate DB2 straight way in TSM 6.1. At least I am running TSM 6.1 in test mode for quite long time (6.1.0 --> 6.1.1 --> 6.1.2.0 -->6.1.2.1) and I never use direct DB2 administration, but I saw some advices in documentation like "Connect to DB2 and do next". Any way, I prefer to shutdown TSM Server before making replication copy. Of course, it is possible in my environment, but it can be impossible in other cases. You advice is useful for non-stop environment. Kindest regards, Grigori G.

Re: TSM 5.3.4 Policy problem
I would take a look at the RETExtra/Only parm of the copy group, they manage the data by date instead of versions. Managing retention time using the versions parameters can give some unintended results (an extra backup of a changed file will reduce the period you can restore from for instance).

Data Protection for Domino
Dear All, could one of you send me a link from where I can download Data Protection for Domino 5.5.2 (for Windows)? Currently I have 5.5.1 installed, but after the Domino server upgrade TSM started filling the log with "domdsmc.exe has terminated abnormally" messages. Perhaps reinstalling 5.5.1 might solve the problem, but 5.5.2 surely supports Domino 8.5.1. Your help would be highly appreciated. With kind regards, Elek Kurucsó
Has anyone done a silent install/configuration of TSM's LVSA?
Folks: We are rolling out an Exchange-based mail system here at Cornell, and in response, a number of units are switching to the Outlook email client - and discovering that they need to implement TSM's Open File Support to backup the local .pst files. As most of the systems on campus are Windows XP systems, enabling Open File Support means installing and configuring the LVSA. We are aware of two means of doing so, using the Setup Wizard or the Edit->Preferences menu item, both of which require human interaction with the system. Given the number of systems involved (>1000) and the fact that a considerable number of these systems are scattered around the country (and world), the tech support folks in these units are desperately seeking a silent install process they could push to all these systems. Thanks in advance for any help! -- Robert (Bob) Talda EZ-Backup Team Cornell University 714 Rhodes Hall Ithaca, NY 14853 (607) 255-8280 ezbac...@cornell.edu
Lib Manager question
I have a library manager that is sharing a 8 drives in a 3584 library to two tsm instances. All are TSM 5.5.3.0. If I update the path between a drive and one of the instances offline, will the lib manager then not use that drive when allocating drives to that instance? Or will it allocate the drive and then generate a failure because the instance can't access it? What I am trying to do, for troubleshooting purposes, is to make a drive available to one of the instances but not the other. David

Re: TSM 5.x DB and hardware replication
In cases where I had local fibre, I'd certainly be happy to set up TSM mirroring. But: AFAIK you can't do that with TSM 6.1. It will mirror logs, but not the DB. And this customer is doing very long distance (hundreds of miles) mirroring over PPRC (or the EMC equivalent), which has to be asynchronous. In order for TSM to do the mirroring, you need the drive/filesystem to appear to be a local device to the TSM server. I don't have that option right now, all I've got to play with is the hardware function.

Re: TDP for Exchange 2007 scenario
Sorry to hear that Mario; I provided the link below in my previous post as it was related to your issue (http://www.adsm.org/forum/showthread.php?t=10546); placing the clustername in the excserv switch took care of that particular problem in the posting. The ACN5237E error code is pretty straightforward, verifying that the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service and exchange server run and that the appropriate name is being used in the excserv switch should be enough. Besides those steps, there is nothing else I can think of at the moment.

Netware restore problem/question
Netware 6.0 server running TSM client 5.2.5. The user is using the web client to restore some files in a directory. That directory is not shown/listed. Even using the show active/inactive option. Looking in the dsmsched.log file, I can see that files are actively being backed up from that directory as current as of last night. I think my question is.will the TSM web client only display directories/files that the current user can restore based on permission? And is the web client using the saved (NWPFILE) information? TIA, Bill Boyer

collocation increases tape mounts while backup
Depending on how you set up your collocation (File Systems, Server or Server Group). If you chose collocation by file system then you would mount a tape for each file sys, if you set by server then a mount per server etc ...

Re: TDP for Exchange 2007 scenario
Mario, Did you happen to look at the section in the book where it discusses running in an MSCS cluster setup? Whenever you are communicating with a clustered (SCC) Exchange server, you must use the "/EXCSERVER=virtual-server-name" option on the TDPEXC and TDPEXCC commands. I assume from your description that you are running Exchange SCC clustering and not CCR clustering? Exchange CCR clustering is a bit different because there is no shared storage. There are two copies of the Exchange database, one is an active one and the other one is a passive (replica). It does use Microsoft clustering underneath, but not the traditional MSCS-SCC clustering. Either way... You only need to install and run Data Protection for Exchange on the machines that contain your mailbox databases and your public folder databases. Once it is installed using the installation program and configured (you cannot simply copy the binaries to the machine because the installation program makes required registry updates necessary for runtime operations) you then would launch a CLI command as follows: TDPEXCC QUERY EXCHANGE /EXCSERVER=virtual-server-name or via the GUI TDPEXC /EXCSERVER=virtual-server-name where "virtual-server-name" is the name of the Exchange virtual server. If you cannot get things to work, please call IBM support.

Currently I have 5.5.1 installed, but after the Domino server upgrade TSM started filling the log with "domdsmc.exe has terminated abnormally" messages. Perhaps reinstalling 5.5.1 might solve the problem, but 5.5.2 surely supports Domino 8.5.1. Your help would be highly appreciated.

Re: TSM 5.x DB and hardware replication
I think a combination of Metro Mirror and Remote Copy can do the work. It means, you can mirror TSM database to the shorter distance by Metro Mirror and use long distance Remote Copy at appropriate time. It is a little bit complicated, but it should work properly.

But: AFAIK you can't do that with TSM 6.1. It will mirror logs, but not the DB. And this customer is doing very long distance (hundreds of miles) mirroring over PPRC (or the EMC equivalent), which has to be asynchronous. In order for TSM to do the mirroring, you need the drive/filesystem to appear to be a local device to the TSM server. I don't have that option right now, all I've got to play with is the hardware function.
