very slow deinstall

2011-02-15 Thread Remco Post
Hi all, I'm working on writing some scripts to install and upgrade TSM 6.2 on AIX for a customer. Unfortunately this involves deinstalling TSM on occasion. My test systems might not be the most powerful (0.2 power6 CPU), but it takes the uninstaller over an hour to remove TSM from the system.

Hi, while testing with TSM and trying to build a sensible environment TSM gave me a nice message: ANR1546W The available space for the server database directory ( /data/tsm01/tsm01 ) is less than 1 GB. while that is absolutely true, I don't see why this should be a problem. There is close to

I see this on RHEL too. It takes about 30 minutes of Java cogitation on my systems, with no feedback of any kind. On 02/15/11 07:52 AM, Remco Post wrote: Hi all, I'm working on writing some scripts to install and upgrade TSM 6.2 on AIX for a customer. Unfortunately this involves deinstalling

We have had problems, since our upgrad efrom an i2000 to an i6000 in October 2010. The drives were IBM LTO-3 and now they are HP LTO-5. They disappear from the OS. If we reboot the library once a week it seems to be fine. Quantum is either unwilling or unable to provide an answer. I3AZ is based

It may be an annoyance for testing on a very small database, but would'nt you want a warning if your database was running out of space in a production TSM environment? On Tue, Feb 15, 2011 at 09:57, Remco Post wrote: > Hi, > > while testing with TSM and trying to build a sensible environment TSM

SQLLiteSpeed backups hanging when moved to TSM server on RHEL5.

2011-02-15 Thread Robert Clark
We're running into a problem when trying to change SQLLiteSpeed backups clients to point to new TSM servers. The old TSM servers are RHEL4 (on Intel) running TSM server 5.5.5.0 with efix for APAR IC71586. (kernel 2.6.9-89.0.11.ELsmp) The new TSM servers are RHEL5 (on Intel) running TSM server 5.

Robert, On it's face, this sounds like something in the network, with "network" being between the TSM client side TCP stack and the TSM server side TCP stack. Have you done any kind of packet tracing to see what's going on? Best regards, Andy Raibeck IBM Software Group Tivoli Storage Manager Cli

Remco, I had the same warning too on a production TSM server (SLES 10 SP1), the database directory had however 4 file systems mounted of 25 GB each that were used in the database define command during the TSM setup. So plenty of free database space ... I've ended up by enlarging the file syste

Presumably, the TSM server Activity Log has been inspected for any session failure issues, such as too-short timeout values or preemption. And, hopefully, there's nothing in the client OS which is clobbering network usage (such as bad anti-virus software). Unusual possibilities that I could th

Hi Andy, Yes we did get a tcpdump from the TSM server running RHEL5, and we can see the server sending a windo size 0 in the ack. This preceeds the session stop making backup process, and is repeatable. I've also been told that this failure does not happen while tracing is enabled in the TSM clie

wow, somebody who can find APARs, thanks, and somebody who bothered to report this issue. now, all I'm wondering about IBM will probably change the message, not the threshold. I don't see why we need 1 GB of free space in the default database directory, there is still almost nothing in ther
