Re: Re. War stories: Restores/200GB ?

Hi When reaching volumes over >200GB for a server, you need to do find ways to minimize the amount of data that has to be restored in case of a disaster. If this is a fileserver, the most efficent way to speed up the restore time of the whole server, would be to implement HSM. Normally, 40-60% of d

Local Backupset

Hi to All I need the correct steps to create a local backupset for a client in case of the server is down. I already generate a backupset client for the server on a DLT. Any ideas ……. Regards Robert Ouzen [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Local Backupset

Hi There is no difference between a local and a server based backupset. You can take the backupset tape from the server library and insert it into a locally attached DLT tapedrive on the client, and then restore the backupset from that tapedrive. Best Regards Daniel Sparrman

Re: Magstar 3494 Tape Library

The 3494 works with TSM, Legato, and NetBackup. I think ArcServe works also. B1A drives are not SAN Ready. I think you have to convert them to E1A to get the FC upgrade feature, but I am not sure on that. The FC upgrade feature is about 7K. You can look up the feature upgrade preqrequsits on

Re: Magstar 3494 Tape Library

1. You have to upgrade to 3590E1A. 2. The library does not have to be exclusive to TSM. You can share it with other systems, as long as the other system does not want exclusive use. For example lots of shops share their 3494 library between OS/390 and TSM running on W2K, AIX and other supported pl

Re: Stop with DRM

Actually, I think the issue is you are taking the default for the MOVE DRMEDIA command which is SOURCE=DBFULL. If you specify SOURCE=DBS, it will get the DBSNAPSHOT tapes. I use DBNONE and then issue a specific MOVE DRMEDIA command for each DBSNAPSHOT volume that I want to eject. The reason is

Re: Re. War stories: Restores > 200GB ?

On the ESS the write cache is not optional. You must use it. That is where all the write performance comes from. It eliminates the RAID-5 Write penalty and basically changes the writes to RAID-3, no reads before write, when writing sequentially. Not sure what you mean by 2 write cycles. RAID-

Re: Arhive Bit on Netware after Tape Backup/Restore

Hi Andy I was under the impression(from an TSM rep) that TSM didn't pay any attention to the archive bit, but tracked the dates/changes of files itself. Regards Cameron Andy Carlson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Filespace name is blank

Suffered the same problem a month or two ago This is an effect of the unicode processing within the TSM server code. This problem is resolved in the latest release (4.2.1.8). The actual filespace name is corrcetly stored within the TSM dbase & will be displayedas expected when you upgrade.

Bar Code Labels

Folks I have a dilemma Does anyone out there know where in Australia I can get bar code labels for LTO tapes for an IBM 3583 tape library. Went through the exercise with 7337 library and DLT7000 and after 4 attempts just manually label'd the tapes as none that were supplied were readable. Not

Re: scheduler service overwrites baclient's password

I've seen problems on some Winders machines where if the value returned by the %COMPUTERNAME% is in lower-case letters and you didn't specify NODENAME, then different portions of TSM react differently. What I had was that the Web client interface would change the encrypted stored password that wha

versioning for user's files

Hello all... We're migrating our NetWare servers, currently backed up with ArcServe, to W2K servers which will be backed up with TSM. These NetWare servers contain programs, users' home directories, and shared directories. The existing NetWare server backup is a full backup every day, all to on

Re: Restore OS of AIX 4.3.3

This is from past experience: (I'm sure this is left unsaid, but you never know). Initially you have to have been backing up the OS filesystems. Once you install the client, assigned the original IP address, highlight the filesystems you need to restore. Once the restore begins, you will b

Re: versioning for user's files

The real question is what is your business requirement? Forget what you have done in the past for a moment and ask your customers what their business recovery requirement is. If they could recovery a file from forever ago and it changed once a day there is a large cost to do that. Most

Re: Pooooor TDP for Exchange Performance via SAN

What else do you have on the SAN Data Gateway? Does the client connect to a switch that the SAN Data Gateway does or what? There has been a lot of discussion on this subject over the past weeks. It has always been the configuration of the SAN Data Gateway. -Original Message- From: Kars
