Did some debugging on our backup scripts and it seems that the following
lines are the culprit :
stty intr ''
trap "stty intr ''" 2
Would anyone know what is the purpose of those two lines ? ( am not
familiar with scripts. The backup scripts are provided for by our IBM
support )
Thanks

I'm hoping someone has seen this before. I have a Solaris 8 client running

sever code. I'm Archive files that are NFS mounted from a NAS storage
subsystem, there is about 17GB of data to be archived. The Archive st

file share. However, we have not been allowed to do a recovery test. So we
are not sure how well we could recover the systems in the event of a

Mark,
I am not very familiar with the client side of TSM, but the user told me
that the passwordaccess generate wasn't enabled. Is there any other way
that it would generate the password? Is there a parameter on the TSM
server that would override this parameter? Thanks again!

We have not done a lot of testing on this, so this can not be taken as a
definitive statement. With that said, the following sums up our current
thoughts on this:
- Because there is no reclamation for random access storage pools, (a)
disk fragmentation is definitely a concern, and (b) aggregates a

an all disk storage pool environment, although we make no commitments at

Mr. Raibeck,
I appreciate your feedback and, being involved in IT for some 30 years, I
understand the technical challenges involved. That is why I posted the
question. With the falling cost of disk architecture, a disk to disk backup
alternative seems to be coming close to rivaling disk to tape a
Is your library set up as "manual" in the devconfig? In my experience,
using an external library requires this setup for the DB restore. Give
that a shot. We had similar problems with a DB restore one time using an
STK 9310 Library. Once we had the devconfig right, it worked like a charm.

Netapp is currently selling a SAN solution that utulizes ATA disk. They
are marketing this as either nearline storage or as an alternative to
tape. The array is a 12TB array with a cost approximating tape according
to their marketing collateral. Hope this helps.

Hi all
I'm going to need some data collection from a Total Storage Expert. I also have a TSM
server (5.1.6.5) running on an AIX 4.3.3.11 but its not in total production. Do you
know of some issues when instaling both products on the same machine?
I don't want to waste CPUs on the TS Expert. :)
Servergraph takes a hog_factor reading daily (along with other readings) -
for each client node, it's:

divided by
total GB used on the client's hard disk

Mahesh,

Not knowing what file systems you have, you might need to use

Domain looks after file system mount points - and specifies which file
systems will be used to look for files that are eligible for backup. So if

After giving it some thought, I figure you have two choices.
1. If your OLD Copypool is sequential then you could sort by the oldest written date and move the data from each cartridge to the NEW Copypool. That way, data that should be expired, would be once it was with the rest of the copypoo
Once you are sure the data has all been copied to a new copy storage
pool, why not just delete the volumes in the copy storage pool you want
to get rid of? This shouldn't do anything to your primary pool, or your
new copy pool.

Because the data isn't collocated. If my customer was on 5.2 I could
collocate the specific node in question and then delete it, but I'm not
at that level.
Thanks anyway!

TSE coexists happiliy with TSM. However being written in java it is a resource and
memory hog. Don't use it on the same machine as TSM if you are short on memory. Make
sure TSE report generation doesn't run at the same time as something in TSM that needs
lots of CPU.
