Verifying EXPORT NODE is successful with Q OCC - LOGICAL SPACE OCCUPIED (MB) differences?

2009-04-21 Thread David McClelland
Hi Team, I’ve performed an EXPORT NODE operation from a source TSM server (Windows 5.4.3.2) to a target server (AIX 5.5.1.1) over TCP/IP with the TOSERVER option. All appears to have completed successfully, the processes on both TSM Servers report SUCCESS with no errors. However, being of a cautio

David - The Admin Ref manual description of the Physical and Logical Space report element from Query OCCupancy is superficial, leading the customer to believe that the Logical value is just the amount of space occupied by client files. According to info I've seen, logical space also includes hea

Object size query

2009-04-21 Thread Mark Devine
I would like to query the DB for any stored objects > 1GB. The output will help improve our incl/excl specifications. The only table/column I see is CONTENTS/FILE_SIZE. My select works, but obviously it's an intense scan. Is CONTENTS the only place? Please suggest the best approach.

The whole presched command needs to be quoted as one item. Converting from "Laptop Backup" to the short name should save the single quotes. If powershell will honor the single quotes, you can use them to quote the powershell arguments instead, and then then double quotes are available for the whol

You can produce an allied report by scanning your dsmaccnt.log to report on large adds (Archive or Backup operations) over a long period of time, by dividing quantity of data sent to the TSM server by the number of objects, allowing you to identify nodes and users (but not filespaces) involved in

Not really an answer, set max file size of primary pool to 1GB and force it to a next large file pool. Check what files ends up in the large file pool. -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ads...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of Richard Sims Sent: Tuesday, April 21, 2009 1

We're getting requests from a number of people who have their desktop computers (mix of Macs and Windows XP/Vista) backed up to TSM, for a way to avoid leaving them on all night. The issue is simple energy conservation. Even with the monitor off, and the disk drives spun down, a live PC still cons

Why not just give them a warning/mandate that if they are working late, they need to go out under services and disable the TSM client scheduler until they are done working, then start the scheduler before leaving. -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ads...@vm.marist.

Roger - A Macintosh can be scheduled to start up and/or shut down at chosen times on chosen days, through the Energy Saver system preference, and thus be alive for TSM client schedule activity. It's polite about this when someone happens to be using the computer. Richard Sims

Hi Roger I've not done it but There is a "wake on lan" function available. Send an appropriately crafted packet to the ethernet port and the machine will boot, if configured properly. If you use a schedule with a long window, then the backup will start as soon as the cad/scheduler is initia

Well, you could try wrapping the "shutdown" program in a script with some intelligence behind it. I put a VBScript together fairly quickly on my XP workstation and it seems to work okay (see below). Notes: * I tested on XP only, so you'll need to test on other Windows OSes. * I use LocalSystem
