How to cleanup removed VMs from Instant Restore in TDP for VE?
I have several VMs which where deleted in vCenter before standard dismount procedure in TDP for VE 7.1, so they stuck on datamovers. Does anyone knows the exact command to dismount and remove these VMs from TDP? Thank you in advance. Pressing Dismount from web console completes with the following errors: VM 'ftp_temp': Preparing... VM 'ftp_temp': Starting Instant VM Access cleanup process VM 'ftp_temp': Check the state of the ESX host 'vh3' VM 'ftp_temp': Restoring VM configuration information for 'ftp' VM 'ftp_temp': Check the state of the ESX host 'vh3' VM 'ftp_temp': Disconnecting iSCSI devices from the ESX host.

Exchange TDP
Hi Folks, We running TSM Exchange TDP 6.3 on TSM5.5 ( I know not supported) I believe a made a balls up and want to know if there is anything possible to do. I needed to recover Exchange data from 2013 from my monthly backups. When checked for the data to recover I couldn't see anything past 60 days which was strange as my monthly has a retention policy which is 365 days. I came to the conclusion that when we upgraded the exchange client I ran a backup using the monthly node ID using a daily mgmtclass which at the time was the default and has a retention of 60 days so binding all the monthly's to daily's.. This is my only conclusion for this. Is there anything possible to do is this scenario to remotely recover this data!?!?

Re: Exchange TDP
Hi Jerome, I am not an expert on TSM Server rollbacks, but here are some options that I can think of: - Restore your TSM database back to before the backup with the shorter policy. This has ramifications that I am sure you are aware of. - If your data is on tape, and the tapes have not been written over, you could possibly salvage them. You would need to contact your IBM account team to start this process.
