Re: Orphaned filespaces

For reference, here's some SQL: select node_name, filespace_name from filespaces f where not exists (select distinct node_name, filespace_name from occupancy o where f.node_name = o.node_name and f.filespace_name = o.filespace_name) or, without using subqueries (but won't work with TSM):

Issue with TDP and FS backup

Dear all, I've been experiencing backup problems. Well just after we upgrade from TSM 5.2 to 5.3.2, the client backups go hay-wire. Client at 5.3.4 with NO LanFree. TDP Version 5.3.3 on AIX 5.3.4 CSP. In the LPAR, if TDP backup is good then the FS scheduler will die off and vice versa. I've tried

OK, I did volunteer. I'll take a crack at these issues... 1) reusedelay. In circumstances where I'm thinking of these FILE vols as replacing DISK vols, I don't want to have to hold on to that space for a few days before it becomes available again. Just reusedelay=0, and view the data

Re: Prescheduledcmd failed error

OK, so that is your answer: the schedule fails to do a problem in the backup_asr.cmd script. Next up: adjust your TSM configuration to prevent running that script on this system if it isn't supposed to run there, or diagnose the script failure. The first question is, does the script exist on the cl

Lots of thoughts here and in no particular order. 1. Define the volumes rather than using scratch volumes for your file device class pools. No point allowing the system to do this: Define volume stgpool e:\of formatsize=5000 numberofvols=256 This command will format and define 256 volumes of si

You wouldnt be able to set up a copypool for the offsite copy it would have to be another onsite pool. You could always try using the devcl type of file and going that route. I would also look at doing the dbbackups as devcl=file. That is what we are looking at doing to reduce the waste of gigs of

Nice one. I was also curious, and we have some info to share too. 1. For a short term temporary solution we chose Diligent Virtual Tape Facility for Open including ProtecTIER. 2. Hmmm. Not quite. We were promised better data deduplication values, but it is partly our own fault, due to client comp
