Guys,
Perhaps you have seen something like this before: The W2K3sp1 machine which
holds the HP Openview ServiceCenter database is crashing while backing up. The
backup solution was changed very recently to TSM as BackupExec is being phased
out, but both pieces of software are crashing during ba

Does someone know the soft " Veritas Backup Reporter" ?
Can I have some feedback about the product, interests, ability, ..., in

Hi Jeff,
In order to get a consistent backup of a SQL Server database,
you must use a tool that is integrated with SQL Server.
In the case of snapshots, you must use a tool that knows how
to work with SQL Server snapshots. SQL Server has two snapshot
mechanisms, one through the VDI interface and t

Do you know if HP Openview ServiceCenter has a VSS writer?
Could its writer be causing a crash after getting signalled by VSS?
As a first diagnostic step, I would shutdown HP Openview ServiceCenter

Hi All,
I donwloaded TSM Server version 5.5.0.2 just a couple of days ago and
now it's disappeared from the FTP-site. Anyone knows why it has been

What version of the TSM agent are you using? Does (nt)Backup also crash
the system?

Hi Matthew,
If it doesn't appear in VSSADMIN LIST WRITERS.. then it won't
have a writer and it shouldn't be causing the problem.
If this is an LVSA problem, you should call IBM support.
You may want to uninstall the LVSA driver..and try the backup as well.
But... if this is a production system, y
Which TSM client version do you use? (Full version, like "5.3.4.2", not
"5.3")
The dump analysis appears edited. For example, the exception type is
missing. Can you provide the complete analysis?
Is the Microsoft driver verifier running on this system? If so, disable
verification for tsmlvsa.sys.
Hi Andy,
You're right of course - I know list etiquette, I should have stated my levels:

I would need more information. For example, I can understand how this can

I installed the backup archive client (5.4.2.0) on Windows 2003 Server. I ran
a full backup of 2.7 TB.
I scheduled the regular incremental backups to run nightly. I noticed that the
backup was taking anywhere from 4 - 9 hours to complete. The client was
scanning thru approximately 5 million
No, you are good to go. What that statement assumes is that you
installed the Journal Engine before you ever ran the backup and that you
shouldn't be surprised to see a longer than normal backup take place.
Cool, huh? Those guys at IBM...

Once you install the Journaling service, the TSM server will have to go
through one "old" backup of the host to get things started. This does
not mean a FULL backup, it just needs to do a regular incremental where
it must scan every item in the directory. So it means one more LONG
backup to complet
Very cool..
I can't believe the difference it makes.

IBM states that once you install journal based backups that they are NOT meant
to replace incremental backups. They recommend running a regular old fashioned

Short version:

You're right. In fact, in our company, we set DIRMC on TSM Server and we
bind all TSM clients to this client option set definition.
What we do :
- We set retention to the max of all our policies
- We set version to NOLIMIT

No need of that. JBB check the latest backup date of filespaces to
