Hello,
we are experiencing throughput problems on our TSM-installation. Apart
from he obvious that we have too few tape drives, bottlenecks in our LAN
and an old AIX-box, we got a suggestion to add another TSM-server. The
reason was that the performance degrades when the TSM-database reaches

Hi all,
Well we are running TSM 5.2.3 on AIX
5.2 and and client using XP version 5.01(XP1)
The scheduler service runs under domain
administrator access rights which I don't think to be an issue. Pls advice
if I'm wrong.
Hello all,
have anybody some pro and cons to use DR550 or Centera for Dataretention ?
I have hear about problems to use a Centera for instance "migration ,
reclamation, or move data"
Regards
Michael
We run DBs of 200 and 300GB respectively on pSeries AIX servers.
They run just fine, so yes, just get a faster server and you will be fine.

I have one small follow up question:
can I do the same with my management class and specify in the backup

I guess the doc I was questioning was the quote:
"You cannot mix media formats in a storage pool. This includes LTO1 and

Bill is doing this (using LTO1 AND LTO2 formats in a storage pool.)
So if it is not wrong, I found it very confusing to figure out what that

Robert,
Yes, that's how I've done it. Works
First thing I would check on is the DB cache hit %.
That can slow things down, and I find a lot of people still running with
the defaults.

William,
I agree with Wanda about checking the performance of the DB, but if that
is not the problem then you may need to try something other than file
level backup. Have you considered using image backups? Image backups
run much faster and they have the advantage of improving restore times

Avoid using 5.3.1.2 server as any writes to collocated

It appears to be fixed in 5.3.1.3+ see: IC46349
It was so slow I had to temporarily turn collocation off until the fix.

Not sure exactly if this is your situation, but I see that you are trying

TDP for Oracle bit should match your Oracle bit. So if you have 32 bit
oracle, use 32 bit TDP to backup and if you have 64

Scott,
TDP Oracle can interface with both a 32-bit and 64-bit Oracle instance by
defining the correct symbolic links.
The 32-bit Oracle should use the 32-bit TDP Oracle libobk.a
and the 64-bit Oracle should use the 64-bit TDP Oracle libobk.a.
To ensure this, define the symbolic links as follows:
Chances are the file dsmserv.dsk is/was missing or was rebuilt. It's in
the server/bin directory, it's a text file, make sure it has the full path
to each log and db file.
Then start the TSM server.

As Mark said those versions of TSM won't even allow a systemstate backup. If
you aren't already I'd start using NT Backup to backup the systemstate, or get
upgraded.
I'd like to point out that you don't use TSM to restore a single OU. Few
backup products support a recovery directly into AD a
If your database files are still good then do a DSMSERV DUMPDB. Then
you'll need to run DSMSERV LOADFORMAT followed by DSMSERV LOADDB. Your
server will startup fine after that with no data loss. The dump and load
will be very fast if you have enough disk space and can do it to a file
devclass.
Wouldn't it make more sense to run an monthly archive, rather than a
backup? After all, archives were *made* for long-term retention.
