Re: for those using VTL

We have SEPATON here. SEPATON is a 'standalone' solution vs 'integrated' that you get with EMC. That is, with standalone, TSM has full control of all onsite and offsite tapes. With an integrated library, TSM lost control of all offsite tapes. This just makes an additional point of failure. Vic

When asked to 'replace' them, did he answer 'yes' or 'yes to all'? Yes, you can restore to an alternate location that is also a different server. You need to set up permission for that server to restore the 'originating' server's data, and on the destination side, you must access as the 'originat

Hi Paul, No, it cannot be done. We've proved it here by taking a TSM data snapshot and attempting to restore it a newly built TSM server on LINUX. This is the result. Unfortunately, the EXPORT / IMPORT option is your only alternative. You may selectively choose what to export out to cut d

We need to back up MSSQL databases, but they need to be closed to the RDMS first. Has anyone done that? We do not have the Tivoli TDP agent, nor any other agents that handle open database files. I am not the best script writer, but I was thinking to build a script somewhat like the following:
