Richard,
I cannot seem to find the tech note you are speaking of.
When labeling the tapes does it not write it to the volume itself? When TSM
uses the volumes does it not read the barcode? Is there a way for it to AUTO
use the barcode? It seems as if the label is not written to the tape it

Bill,
On AIX you need to do the following:
1. Ensure the java5 SDK is installed
2. Set the environment variables for the user running the ekm process:
# java sets for EKM
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java5/jre
P8=/usr/java5/jre/bin
P9=/usr/java5/bin
export CLASSPAT=H/usr/java5/jre/lib
export PATH=$JAVA_H

The simplest approach is to perform 'dsmc i' on the directory path/
name. See examples in the client manual.

exclude.dir overrides everything else, so leave that out.
After that, the list in dsm.opt is read from the bottom up.
So what you need is:
EXCLUDE "D:\...\*"
INCLUDE "D:\backmeup\*"

Hi
How do you make a netware client restore a backupset of another netware client?
Ideally to an assigned temporary directory.

Richard,
Thank you for the information.
We are erasing the tapes because clients were writing to the tapes and the data
was unencrypted. We verified the data was unencrypted by using DD and NTUTIL
being able to read data off of the tapes. Tivoli unfortunately does not allow
us to erase the

Andy,
Today everything is working as it should.
Yesterday, when I shut down my machine, it seemed to be
hanging. I opened task manager and found several cmd.exe
processes sitting there that I had to force. I don't know if there was something

Yes, been there, done that. My boss is looking to consolidate all our servers
on one or two platforms, i.e. all Sun and VMware virtual servers, for a less
expensive disaster recovery plan. We currently run our TSM server on a pSeries
LPAR.

I went out looking for client patches and stumbled upon 2-updates for the
Windows platform.
While both the x32 and x64 now have a 5.5.1.16 release (what ever happened
to 5.5.2.x?), there is also an x64 release of 5.5.1.91 with a readme

Limited Availability.
Best to avoid patch levels unless specifically prescribed.
These are fix levels that are given only to one (or a small handful of)
customers who need an urgent fix for an APAR, and cannot wait for an
interim fix or fix pack. The packages receive no regression testing, and
thus are not considered ready for general availability to the public. Hence

Have you taken a look at TSMManager? I've been using it now for ~2 years.

Every other virtualized environment is for clients.

Will do the job. Remember TSM looks at the list from the bottom up, so
put your includes at the bottom. (also as soon as it matches it stops
looking, hence the reason the above works).

Can I safely assure my customers that 5.5.2.0 will fix the SystemState backup

The readme/fix-list for 5.5.1.16 seems to address a similar problem, if
not this one specifically:

We run TSM 5.4 on a Linux VM under VMware. It's just for our test lab
so we don't have any stressful throughout stats to report, but it

It's not a fix. It's only a workaround that is not acceptable to my clients.
However, we did reduce the number of versions to three. Do you have any idea
what is considered a large number of inactive versions?

Hello
Thanks for the sugestion.
I'm currently using its 30 day trial. I like it so far, but I wanted
to know if anybody has had any experience with any alternative to it.
TSM's own operational report falls rather short of what I need for
trending purposes.
Managing is not much of an issue. IS
I use Servergraph for trending. Works for me. :)

Actually the fix for IC59312, contained in 5.5.1.16, is exactly what you
are looking for. I think the workaround you refer to is exactly that: a
possible circumvention, until the fix is available (which it is, in
5.5.1.16).
What constitutes "large number of inactive versions" is hard to define, an
