Re: draining a diskpool when using a DD and no copypool

We are counting on getting rid of the I/O to the copy pool, as well as the db meta-data associated to it. So I don't think this is where we want to go. > We had a compression card failure in 2007 that caused corrupt data to be > saved to disk (different vendor) The 2-pool model saved us that day. > Ever since then, I've been hesitant on the one-pool model, although I > haven't heard of any data corruption issues lately. It's also not just one pool, but one disk system. With tape you loose individual pieces of media. A hdwr or os bug could loose all your backups, and that's kind of scary. In stead of two pools (primary and copy) I've been thinking of DD snapshots. The problem with snapshots is that they are over the entire DD filesystem, and, that there is no way to revert the entire filesystem back to a snapshot (you can only copy stuff out of a snap). A snapshot might be useful for a TSM database backup, but not for a filepool of all your backups.

Ang: Re: Ang: Re: Tsm v6 migration question
Hi Gregory My comment was to this previous comment: "But, the most important with the 6.x is the architecture of database files. You have to reserve one disk for the database, on for the actlog and one other for the archlog. Having this disks on the same axe may result poor efficientie" What I ment was that it has never been recommended to share the same array / spindle / filesystem between logs and database. If you go back to the TSM v5.5 performance guide, you'll will notice the recommendation to separate log and DB on separate spindles / filesystems / arrays. As for DB2, yes, DB2 is new for v6, but the performance setup isnt. My guess is that if your setup crashed after 2 months, whoever implemented your solution probably shared filesystemspace between the database and some other part of TSM, such as archivelog or log. Since a) the database can now grow "of it's own" I wouldnt place it with something else since you might run out of space b) I wouldnt share archivelog space with something else either since it also "grows of it's own". I cant imagine that your TSM implementation crashed just because the person who implemented it placed the database on a single filesystem. This is technically possible, but not something I would recommend due to performance issues.

TSM for DB password expiration
Has anyone had problems with TSM for DB (Oracle), aka TDPO, and password expiration? We are running TSM for DB v5.5.1.0 with TSM api 6.2.2.0 on AIX 5.3 to a TSM server at 6.2.2.0 also on AIX 5.3. We are running with password generate. Last night we got two ANR0425W password has expired messages for node DBFINTEST. I assume I got two messages because the rman command is using two channels, thus two concurrent TSM sessions. At that point the password should have been set to something new and life should go on. Instead, subsequent sessions for that node got the "ANS0282E Password file is not available.", ie password is incorrect, message. Any thoughts on what might be going wrong? David Ehresman

Re: Ang: TSM for DB password expiration
For the Oracle TDP on AIX you have to set the passwordaccess option to prompt, as the TDP will NOT update the password. The best option here is to set the password expiration to 0 on both the node, and the admin owner (if you have it) of the node. However, what Daniel said is correct unless you run "update node server-oracle passexp=0" AND "update admin server-oracle passexp=0", then it will just keep on using the same password.

Re: Ang: TSM for DB password expiration
Hi, As I know, from TDP for DB (Oracle) v.5.4.? option passwordaccess generate is fully supported. Try to check that TSM.PWD owned by Oracle user. If not - TDP can't change password. Password must be changed automatically and immediately after ANR0425W message. Efim 2011/3/25 Howard Coles : > No, it's not different, Oracle TDP works the same on Linux and AIX.

TSM Parallel restores question
I'm looking into methods for HSM for my company. One of the requirements I have is that restores must use the maximum speed we can achieve. I have looked at several TSM pages, but couldn't find something that explicitly explains how parallel restores (the NQR option) are going to be performed. My specific question is: Do all copies have to go over the server or can they go over different paths? For example: 2 files (F1,F2) are to be restored to two different primary systems (P1,P2) from 2 different secondary storage systems (S1,S2). Does TSM support a physical connection like the one shown bellow in a) or does it have to be a connection such as the one shown in b) a) P1 <- F1 -- S1 P2 <- F2 -- S2 b) P1 <--F1---\/---F1 S1 - Server -- P2 <--F2---/\---F2 S2 +-- |This was sent by andres...@gmail.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +--
Re: TSM Parallel restores question
HSM and backup-restore are very different concepts with equally different handling and, usually, architecture. While backup/restore is essentially serialized, HSM is on demand parallelized via independent processes. Define your objectives and then seek a storage architecture to fit the needs.
