My recommendation would be to setup the NT server and start sending all the backups there. Pick a number of days after the cutover to just discard the AIX machine and all the data. Dumb Management usually likes dumb answers like this. Zlatko, I like DaMagement, guess that is the short form of D

Zlatko, I am so tired of hearing about this. You "hit the nail on the head" as we say in the USA. Let me see if I can put some sense of reality into this once and for all. In the mainframe days we designed applications to have cycles of processing where you could roll all the data up and recove

Exchange Mailbox Restore: AGAIN

2002-07-07 Thread Seay, Paul
Well, NetBackup and Backup Exec can unload the mailbox (Inbox), but not the calendars or any of the other stuff that is important that is in the mailbox. You will not like the performance and your high-end users will complain the restore is useless without the calendar. PSTs are not mailboxes, t

Export/import is the supported way. Restore will not work but if you succeed many people on this list would be interested to know. Third way is to setup the NT server from scratch and delete all the data from AIX one. Maybe that exactly the damagement wants. Zlatko Krastev IT Consultant Pleas

At the end of the day, sometimes it's easier to go to the same type of tape volume. For example, if you have a DR situation, you will need to source another library/tape drive if your DB exists on another form of tape volume. This is a very poor approach when time is of the essence in the recover

Yes, by setting weekly/monthly/quarterly/yearly schedules and corresponding management classes and copygroups. But first try not the drive the Ferrari you have as a pram. Periodical backups are *limitations* of a product not features. Ask your people what they want to restore not how to achieve it

2002-07-07 Thread Zlatko Krastev
The first performance tuning step should be separation of files to relatively small and big. Direct the small ones to disk or non-shared filepool (thus over LAN) and big files direct to tape (which can be shared and thus lan-free). You will get the benefits of both methods. Have in mind KEEPMP set

Kelly, you have at least two options in front: - upgrade TSM server and keep using old clients on old NetWare boxes. Yes, this is unsupported but does not automatically mean it would not work. - move those Netware boxes to a small separate TSM server at v4.1.x. Zlatko Krastev IT Consultant P
