Hello all,
We are taking Tivoli database backup in every 15 days.
Now I want to reuse the previous database LTO volumes
>> q drmedia
displays all database used volumesÂ…eg:
BT0085
BT0086
BT0087
BT0095
I had tried using
>> delete dbvolume and delete volume, but they are not working.
Any help
This cmd works for me:
Del volhist type=dbb todate=-16

If suppose I want to delete backup database volume BT0085, than what command
should I issued?
Del volhist type=dbb todate=-233 should work.
Assuming today is 14th februrary 2005 and volume BT0085 was last updated on
08/11/04 14:35:47.
Or there are any other options available?
What are the rep
How about:
"Del volhist type=dbb todate=08/11/04"
If you do a "help del volhist" at the TSM cmd, you'll get all the info.

Did you really mean that you are taking a TSM Database backup once every
15 days?? If that's true, you are braver than me !

Has anyone tried TSM 5.3 for Windows with iSCSI ?
We currently have an EMC NS600 NAS with enabled iSCSI and have contemplated
mounting remote volumes on the NAS via iSCSI and using these as storage
pools for TSM. I know you can also go down the NDMP route by directly
attaching the TSM library
Just thinking out loud.
I would use pre job command to backup the MySQL database to a disk then have

MySQL comes with a backup command call mysqldump.

Hi Jean!
We are currently designing a new TSM environment with a disk-only

Because of the risk of fragmentation, we decided to use pre-allocated file
volumes. This prevents fragmentation, because the volumes are propperly

Eric and Jean,
I'm not sure that is true. I did some limited testing in a win2000 sp4
tsm 5.2.3.2 and IIRC it appeared that the preallocated files did get
reallocated at the os level the first time they received data and I
would assume when they were reclaimed and reused. We just started using
a 6.
That is what happens at our site!
Start Offsite reclamation, do a couple q vols and you will see!

TSM will only let you delete up to the last FULL backup, because you need the
