backup and restore of GPFS filesystem

Hi, I am testing the backup of GPFS filesystem (GPFS 3.2.0.1) on AIX 5.3 TL 05 TSM 5.4.1 on both the server and client. I run the mmbackup command in a script to backup the filesystem. mmbackup /dev/GPFS_filesys -n /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/gpfs.ctl -t full The backup comp

And still no message level restore of Exchange, without using exmerge? 2002 called, it wants its restore method back. On the up side, the 5.4.1.4 client for Netware appears to address the IC53531 breakage. [RC] On Wednesday, November 14, 2007, at 10:04AM, "Wanda Prather" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> w

Virtual Volumes & DB Backup

I have two TSM 5.4 servers using SATA drives as their targets. (They are named TSM3 and TSM4) I do not have any tape drives or libraries set up. I want to backup the database on TSM3 to TSM4 and vice versa. (As described in an operation suggested in IBM TSM for Linux: Administrator's Guide, ver

order of backup on the client

Hello, Is there anyway I can set it on the dsm.opt so that the order of the backup starts with System Services, System State, ASR, c$ then lastly d$. Currently it starts with d$, and c$, and often the d$ is so large that at times it hangs and nothing else get backed up. Thank you for

MOVE DRMEDIA: whoops, got too many!

My first attempt at MOVE DRMEDIA kicked out more DBSnapshot tapes than I meant, so I have four tapes outside a library that should be in the library as if nothing had happened. Is this problem easily fixable, or is it time to get out the not-so-delicate tools like CHECKIN LIBVOL? Sigh, Nick

Have you looked at the help for update spacetrigger and define spacetrigger? The log does not have an error related to the spacetrigger other than it not being defined. Andy Huebner -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Wladimir Benavides

AIX GPFS & Oracle RAC

Does anyone have any suggestions on backing up 4 AIX systems clustered and using GPFS file systems, supporting Oracle RAC? I'm currently planning on using domain statements to manage who's backing up what. Gerald Michalak TSM - Certified V5 Administrator [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks for the info. Didn't see much in there, for my environment. I assume 5.4.2 will probably be release at the same time. Thomas Rupp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" 11/14/2007 10:33 AM Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" To ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU cc Su

5.4.2 target release date

Anyone have any guess on the target release for 5.4.2 ? I have at least 3-known problems that say FIN/5.4.2. Or perhaps 5.5 ?

Re: DP for SQL Server mirroring

As Steve suggested, test out your scenario using a common nodename. However, you will need to be careful because both servers will have common databases (like master and msdb)... and you do not want those backups for different servers to get mixed in with each other. You could have a separate line

Re: DP for SQL Server mirroring

Would it work better if you used a common nodename between them both? That would also give you easy restores between them if need be. Steve Schaub Systems Engineer, Windows Blue Cross Blue Shield of Tennessee 423-535-6574 (desk) 423-785-7347 (mobile) -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist

Re: DP for SQL Server mirroring

Hi Del! Let's say ServerA is the Principal and ServerB is the Mirror. Normally you would schedule a DP backup on ServerA. The (mirror-)database on ServerB is running in a state which doesn't allow backing up (restore mode?) Now there is a take-over and ServerB becomes the new Principal. Now you wil
