Rename aFilesystem name for a VM machine

2014-10-23 Thread Robert Ouzen
Hello

Tried to rename a filespace of a VM machine backuped with TSM for VE 7.1.1 on a 
TSM server version 7.1.1

The datacenter node name is:  HAIFA_DATACENTER

Doing  a query as:  q fi   HAIFA_DATACENTER   (here the output)

Node NameFilespace Name   FSIDPlatform  
   Filespace Type   Is Filespace Unicode   Capacity   Pct Util
--- -   
--   -- --  
  --- --
HAIFA_DATACENTER \VMFULL-mdb2106  TDP VMware API:TSMVM  
No0 KB0.0


Did the command: ren fi   HAIFA_DATACENTER   \VMFULL-mdb2
\VMFULL-mdb2_OLD

But got this error !

ANR1998E RENAME FILESPACE: Invalid value for current_file_space_name parameter 
- \VMFULL-mdb2.

I did it so many times but this is the first time for a VM machine !

Any help

Re: Rename aFilesystem name for a VM machine

2014-10-23 Thread Stefan Bender
Hello Robert, 
the behavior of the TSM server was changed as we received PMRs from users 
not being able to access their VM backups after such renames. 
Thus with APAR IC92869 (
https://www-304.ibm.com/support/entdocview.wss?uid=swg1IC92869) the 
ability to rename file spaces of VM backups was disabled. 

What is the reason, why you rename the file space? Is the original VM 
disposed and you want to mark this deletion in the file space name by 
renaming it? 
So do you want to keep the file space as inactive until you finally delete 
it? 
In that case you may use the "FORCE=YES" option together with the rename 
file space command. This will bring back the old behavior of the command. 

However 
- once a file space is renamed it will no longer show up when you look for 
existing backups in the VE GUI
- If you want to rename the file space because the VM was renamed, you 
will not be able to access any old backup under the new name. You will 
have a mixture of accessible and inaccessible backups within one file 
space. 
- Once renamed you have to rename the file space back to the original 
name, if you want to access VM backups. 

I hope that helps. 

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / best regards

adding a password (abc123) and restarted the service :

Now, the 9028 port is listenning and OC is able to connect to CMS, but i get 
the message “There are no recommendations available. For more information, see 
the Tivoli Storage Manager Documentation.” in french : "Aucune recommandation 
n'est disponible. Pour plus d'informations, voir la documentation Tivoli

Re: fibre channel question on 3592 tape drives

We defined our drives using RMT names (AIX server).  WWNs are what we used to

choice on which name to use.

Does that help?

Hi Robert
You did not miss anything, this is the purpose of the CMS.  Here are some
things for you to verify:

1. That you have errors in your log file that are 72 hours or younger
2. That the client-configuration.xml file is configured correctly. The
things to verify are the node, tsmServer, port, logPath, and dateTimeFormat
(this one is very important, make sure it matches the date time format that
the error log has).
3.  There is a known defect where CMS doe not work when run from a time
zone east of UTC.  Please contact support if you have that situation and
they can get the fix to you.
4. If none of these issues work, please email me the
client-configuration.xml and error logs and I will try to debug the issue.

Re: fibre channel question on 3592 tape drives

2014-10-23 Thread Rhodes, Richard L.
Agreed!

You define the path with the server device file (rmtX on aix).  On first access 
tsm will populate the drive with  all the specs of the drive (s/n, wwn, etc).  
You use the wwpn for zoning.  Check the switch port for a drive - use the wwn 
that is logged into the switch.

Re: TSM for VE 7.1.1 upgrade question

Correct.
You can do a VM full backup with the basic client, without TSM/VE.
For incremental forever you need the VE license.
