Re: Missed schedules

We had that same initial problem with missing schedules, and here is what we found and did First, because the backups were scheduled at the same time, from different policy domains, when our diskpools filled up, it would mount a tape. However, it was making offsite copies at the same time, so

Re: Can I do this?

Wow, that is pretty neat. Do you have those scripts scheduled as cron jobs, or do you run them manually? Thanks! Aaron >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/2/2005 8:34:28 PM >>> I usually run a script which outputs all my volumes from two stgpools with tape older than seven days that need to be deleted in

Re: SQL query to find expiring archive files

I don't know if this will help you at all, but when I had to do something similar using the backups table, I found that I could do much better by driving the query from a higher-level script (perl, for example). The archives (and backups) tables are the biggest and ugliest tables you can go after

Upgrading to TSM V5.3.2 and optical devices

I would first check the number of available sessions on the server. You may be running out of sessions and it's first come first served. Gerald Michalak "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" wrote on 11/03/2005 08:19:00 AM: > Hi Everybody, > > Has anyone ran into problems with missed scheduled ? I know

Re: Missed schedules

Clients can miss their schedule for a number of reasons. First you need to go to each server that missed its schedule and check the dsmsched.log and there should be additional information available. Some of the typical reasons that may effect different clients from night to night are client sessi

Re: Re TDP for Lotus Domino (again)

Farren, You should be happy. Things are working exactly as they should. That is one of the large benefits that you get by using transaction logging. Since every change to a logged database is captured in the transaction log, you are backing up only the necessary changes when you back up the transa

Re: Re TDP for Lotus Domino (again)

Hi I'm sorry, I'm still slightly confused. The problem is that under incremental backup I am not often seeing the databases backed up. I now know that if the db is compacted that will change the dbiid and thus it will be backed up, but is this enough. My position is this. We do a full backup each

Re: Re TDP for Lotus Domino (again)

Hi Farren, The transaction logs are not backed up during a "domdsmc incremental" command. The transaction logs are backed up with the "domdsmc archivelog" command. You are correct that many customers do a "domdsmc selective" command once a week (or more often, depending on the amount of log data g
