Hi,
this is not a question of TSM but the capabilities of the drives
themselves. A LTO-4 drive can read and write LTO-4 and LTO-3 media, and
even read LTO-2 media. As long as you don't change the default format
definition for a LTO-4 drive in the device-class, the drive will happily
accept any of

Hi Brent,
"I call this a bug" in older version of TSM Servers that never been working
before.
Your Archive Log space have been overloaded and TSM want to run a backup to
make sure your TSM Server will not crash.

Hi all,
I'm currently testing TSM 5.5.4 on AIX 5.3 with an IBM XIV box.
When I use dd or other tools to copy data off the disk to tape (LTO4), we
get quite a good performance, 100 MB/s or better. Even when backing up data
on the XIV via shared memory directly to tape, we're quite happy, we can
re
the only thing I remember from working on a test using DB2 is that you
need to carefully match the data read and write sizes to the XIV's sizes
to make sure the reads and writes happen in 'one go' ... no double-taps to
get or put data. that and making sure your fibre paths are separate (as
always)
How full is your XIV frame? It is my understanding that the XIV
performance is significantly better with a full frame than a frame.

Something we have noticed is that when an AIX server is zoned to the
same FC port(s) on the storage device as a windows or Linux server, the
AIX server tends to have reduced throughput when both servers are
accessing the storage. It appears that the AIX is given a lower
priority of service. I hav
Hi,
you are correct, a half VIX (6 drawers) performs far less than a 9 drawer or
more configuration. Unfortunately, we're not even getting close to 20% of
the theoretical limits of our box

How nice. Fortunately, we have an entire (redundant) fabric dedicated to
TSM, and only have on initiator in each zone.

General advice is to have one initiator in each zone definition...

That is my practice. This is a case of multiple zones pointing to the
same shared storage where the LUNs are masked on the storage.
zoneA - AIX_initiator, stgport1, stgport2
zoneB - Lin_initiator, stgport1, stgport2
zoneC - Win_initiator, stgport1, stgport2
etc.
etc.

Remco,
You mention you are having performance problems with IBM XIV and 'DISK'
pools, how is the performance with 'FILE' based storage pools?

I've tried Fix Central and only found references for AIX 6.1 and 7.1;
I'm AIX 5.3. I've not been able to find where in the TSM download site
it might be hidden.

In our DR environment there are times when a R2 or BCV (read-only volume)
is presented to the client for a short period of time and TSM will attempt
to backup the volume. These volumes are read-only and should only be
backed up in a DR situation where the volume will be presented as
read-write. Is

That depends on what you mean by 'backup.' If it's just a list of files,
tcopy or dd could work. However, if you are trying to take a system image
like a mksysb file and trying to create a bootable tape, you'll need to
put some extra, undocumented files in three different filesets prior to

Hi list,
Is there any way to reload the TSM database after issuing a dsmserv format
command? The volumes from the previous TSM Database and RecLog are
availablebut now TSM is pointing to new empty volumes.
TSM is 5.5.4.0 running on Windows 2003.
Thanks
Mario
I think you need just to:
- stop TSM Server;
- restore previous file dsmserv.dsk;
- start TSM Server (it will work if TSM database and logs are saved).
