You don't indicate which TSM client and server versions you are running,
nor do you indicate what the scheduled event is doing. In general, though,
I would say that this behavior is a probable bug and should be reported to
IBM support.

Oh, a trick question? Nonexistent things cannot be deleted. ;-)
The deletion of obsolete filespaces certainly results in the removal of
all their files from the TSM database, where the nu
Hi,
Can we use 2 or more gigabit interfaces to increase backup bandwidth?
Any experience on this approach?
Thanks in advance,

There is no setting that I know of that governs when those type entries will
be removed.
If an entire mount point goes away, TSM has no way of ever knowing "WHY" and
thus won't purge the data.

You will have to update your onsite tape to say Destroyed not unavailable. Only then

I was wondering if someone could help me out.
I have a 3583 tape library with a x330 windows 2000 server
running TSM 5.1.5.
I have a volume that is listed in both the vol and libv
lists.
The volume is marked as private, has no data on it and is
also unavailable.
I would like to make it available
Hi Hope
are there any error messages,
there should be because if you do a q vol x it returns somthing right?
Volume name, stgpool etc,
if thats the case you cannot update the volume to scratch because it still
contains data, do a q cont count=100
I think the tape is propabbly not readable anym
Mark your onsite tapes as damaged, then your copypool tapes will be

We don't actually do exactly what you want, but we do send our logs and DBs
to different mgmt classes. You control it with include/exclude lists, like
any other TSM client. Then the classes can do what you want.
Example for logs:
include s*.txn domino-daily-arc
include S*.TXN
If you use Jumbo Frames at the client, tsm server and switches. You will
see a higher through put with a lot less cpu utilization. I my experience

This is an issue we have raised with Tivoli ourselves recently, even

It could help but like I said most clients aren't tuned for optimum backup
performance. Meaning the disk configuration strategy is't setup for optimum
reads and it cann't keep up with gig speeds. If the client is a production

Run 'restore stg ATL3590 preview=yes' and check the console and it should

Among other things, you should audit the onsite volume, if known, or the
storagepool; move the good files off the offending volumes; and restore or
delete the files that can't be copied by reclamation.

If the volumes that have damaged file are volumes marked OFFSITE, just
delete those volumes because when your backup storage pool runs again, it
will make new copies. But if the volume damaged is an onsite volume then
you need to run command 'RESTORE VOLUME x PREVIEW=YES' and check the

Try pre-restoring the transaction logs using the gui. It takes some

OK... and does your script behave in the manner I suggested in my prior
