I looked at the TSM V6 beta and found there will be a license module that determines how many licenses your system will need. After a bit of debugging and reverse engineering, I obtained a snippet of the source code - Now remember, this is beta, so it may or may not make it into the shipping versi

I intend to very strongly recommend that they incorporate this feature into the new code. The licensing has now gotten so complex, that it makes it very difficult to know whether or not you are in compliance and exactly how many licenses are in use at any given time. Right now you have to

Greetings, We are making plans to upgrade our ~1200 TSM clients from TSM 5.3.4 (and below) to TSM 5.4.2. A number of these are Oracle and Informix servers running under AIX and Linux. I can't find anything on the IBM TSM web site that tells me what versions of Oracle/RMAN and Infor

Thanks to Richard and Nick for the answer. I'd forgotten about -noc. As for downloading manuals, slow connection here, so not a good option. Will copy them when I get back to work. Thanks again.

This article gives us confidence in the fact that IBM now see deduplication as an essential part of the storage environment. Maybe your (and my) wishes for integrated deduplication within the TSM server will soon be answered. I say soon, I mean a couple of years.. http://money.cnn.com/news/news

A few more points: - It's true that hardware compression is faster than software compression, and off-loads the server. Hardware compression often is an extra-cost item. This can also be true of encryption, if done in hardware. The question is, where do you want to do your encryption? At the

Even if TSM is a fantastic product it wont help you with restoring unnamed and unknow files. However if you feel like you will recognize the path/filename when you see it you can always do a 'dsmc query backup' on the server of interest. //Henrik -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Sto
