How to backup a excluded directory

Hi guys, I would like to backup a directory that is excluded in the client option file with exclude.dir option. I don't want to change the option file. Is there anyway to backup this directory from the command line? I am running TSM client 5.1.5 on AIX server

Re: 3590 Upgrades help required - Solaris.

Looking on the IBM site, it says that the H1A drives are supported for both 4.2.2 and 5.1.1 levels of TSM. I'm starting to get confused. Device                                Capacity         AIX HPUX         SUN         WIN |

Yes, I see what you are referring to...but if you click on the "IBM Magstar 3590H" link, it takes you (after submitting your support login) to: http://www-1.ibm.com/support/entdocview.wss?rs=663&uid=swg21054290 And here the title of the doc is "What are the device driver changes and updates in IB

Merging data from one node to another

Is there a way to merge archived filespaces from one node to another? We are obsoleting one node but would like to save specific filespaces. It appears that 'move nodedata' will only move the data from one stgpool to another. Export node appears to move data from one TSM server to another. TSM

Use mtlib or mt to mount a tape in 3494

Hello We are using TSM 5.1 with an IBM 3494 library and I would like to use the mtlib or mt command to mount a tape in our 3500 drive and do a dd or tar. Any ideas? Thanks Mike

Re: Use mtlib or mt to mount a tape in 3494

/usr/bin/mtlib -l/dev/$LMCP -f/dev/$RMT -m -V$VOLSER where $LMCP is your library, $RMT is the drive you wish to use and $VOLSER is your tape volser... so to mount volume ABC123 on drive rmt1 in atl lcmp1 use mtlib -l/dev/lmcp1 -f/dev/rmt1 -m -VABC123 then -d is dismount... it is always nice to

Re: TSM Operational Monitor

I had this same issue. Do the following to correct the problem: 1) note the path where operational reporting is installed 2) use Add/Remove programs to uninstall it 3) reinstall to the original location and be sure to choose the Everyone radio button during setup. At 07:47 AM 8/18/2003 -0700, yo

Re: Setting up Pools with DR

Hi TSMers Is there anything special that I have to do to get a new Copypool and Tapepool to be part of my DR piece in TSM? Thank You in advance for the answers, Bill Rosette Data Center/IS/Papa Johns International WWJD

Re: Setting up Pools with DR

Hi, You have to update the copystoragepools and primarystoragepools in drm. This will let drm know that it should control the onsite/offsite rotations of these tapes. Michael Wheelock Integris Health of Oklahoma -Original Message- From: William Rosette [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Mon

IMAGE and INCREMENTAL backups

I think that I have asked a similar question, so I apologize if this sounds like a repeat. We are trying to implement IMAGE backups for our larger systems (1TB plus). We have purchased a new AIX system just for this purpose. Our experience with IMAGE backups, is pretty much nil ! We are stil

Re: Restoring a backup from SQL Server A to SQL Server B

Chris, I am assuming you are using the same NODENAME when logging into the TSM Server. If so, have you succesfully generated and stored the password for that node on the machine that you are doing your restore on? I suggest getting the the following command to work before even attempting a restor

Re: IMAGE and INCREMENTAL backups

Hi Zoltan We've been told the 3592 announcement is this coming Thursday, whether that's US or Australian time I'm not sure, but our reseller is very keen to sell them to us unstead of the H upgrade we'd been planning. I won't steal their thunder by giving away any details. I just looked up th

Re: Archive schedule error: No file specification entered

Ken, Now that you have archives working I would suggest you keep a very close eye on your TSM system. When I first implemented archives back in the days of ADSM 3.1, we wanted to keep snapshots of our servers in order to recover beyond the max version count of the backups. My initial approach wa

Yes, I was in much of the weekend to make the archives work. I had scheduled them for sat. night. When I came in on sun. noon to check on them, then didn't work!!! So, I figured out the prob., then scheduled them for sun. afternoon-night. When I came in Monday morning, it worked. Now I need to

any examples of effect of win2k image backup on restore times

Hi We are currently in the middle of restoring some file and print (win2000) nodes. This is going very slowly mainly because of tape contention. Action 1) set up some collocated storage pools etc etc. so if this happens again we should get less MediaWait than we are getting now I've also been rea
