Re: Proxy backup solution for VMware/ESX Linux guests

Paul, We're not offloading it. A TSM client runs on every virtual machine that is backed up. Since many of our virtual machines are cloned some TSM setup time is eliminated. The occasional problem with cloning occurs when a client admin forgets to change the nodename option in a clone's client

Syntax to add an option to a client schedule

Hi Everyone, I was wondering if it is possible to add another option to this archive schedule? The customer would like to have -snapshotproviderfs=NONE added. Would the below need to be added as: '"-deletefiles -snapshotproviderfs=NONE"' And is this even possible? I looked up the command an

Re: VSS and system state failures on windows 2003 clients

There are s many things that can go wrong with VSS. (MS tells Tivoli to call a bunch of different VSS writer API's to back up system state, but obviously, ntbackup does it a different way. Coincidence? Conspiracy?) There are so many MS patches for VSS, it's hard to figure out which one is re

Re: date check in a select

Richard, the column reg_time is in datetime format so you need to 'cast' it into the correct format. Further, you are comparing against an integer. What you probably want is: select node_name, date(reg_time) from nodes \ where cast(current_date - date(reg_time) as integer) >30 the first date() i

Re: VSS and system state failures on windows 2003 clients

John, The errors you are experimenting with VSS have nothing to do with TSM rather the host. Deleting the filespace won't do you any good. Try the steps in this post: http://www.mail-archive.com/adsm-l@vm.marist.edu/msg83546.html Good luck. BERTAUT TCHUISE TSM/NetApp Storage Engineer Legg Mason

Richard, Unfortunately, it doesn't work when TDPO runs as a separate client. What I'm finding odd is that encryption doesn't show up in TDPOCONF. Compression does. Fred Johanson TSM Administrator University of Chicago 773-702-8464 -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [

Re: Syntax to add an option to a client schedule

Joni, Yes, you can add the snapshotproviderfs=NONE option to your archive schedule or you can simply add it in the dsm.opt/dsm.sys files and run the schedule without that option. Does your customer realize that the -snapshotproviderfs=NONE is the default option and that it does not need to be adde
