Migrating/moving data from one server to another.

Hi All! We have an old IBM aix server with TSM 5.2.2 server and plan to move/migrate this to a new server and tape library. Info: Old system:F80 ibm server, TSM 5.2.2, 3575 library, L24 drives. New system: P520, TSM 5.2.x, 3582 L23 library, 2xLTO3 drives. 2,5 TB disk for stgpools and db etc.

Re: Migrating/moving data from one server to another.

Hi Erik, You can do this in two ways (brief). 1. Setup server-to-server communication between the old and the new server. Do an 'export server' to get all policy information to the new server and redirect all backups to the new hardware. Do exports on all monthly/yearly and archive data to the

Splendid. Your answers helped me to get on track. I think we will somehow use the export node,server,policy commands, Like exporting policys and mgmt etc. Then modify them to suit our new environmen. As we cant connect the old lib to the new server (separate buildings and the old library is he

Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that my suggestion applies to you. EV1: is an NSS volume, and already has the LONG namespace loaded on it. In the old days on Traditional Volumes, it didn't always default to that. Might be worth opening a ticket with novell for that one. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 5

Media in a backup set?

Is there an easy way to figure out which media go with which backup sets (and in which order?), or do I have to be really rigorous about culling the information from the server logs? I can see from Q LIBVOL which media are backupset media, but I don't yet see a way to see which tapes go with each

Re: Novell question !!!!!!

Hi Check out your tsafs.nlm start-up settings. It must be set to ClusterEnable No (as TSM is in Novell terms a not cluster aware application. Only ArcServe and BackupExec are.) If this is set to yes volumes with long filenames will be backed up in 8.3. This means TSM will not recognise changes in

Re: Throttling back TSM client

Paul, I know it's been a while since you posted this but I wanted to share my insights. We've received the same complaints. The problem is not TSM per se, but the fact that I/O is interrupt-based and the interrupt service routines run at high-priority. This also affects any scan process, includ
