Wondering if you guya can point me in the right direction wih this one.

I have 2 nodes using TDP for Domino.

Both nodes are running within a schedule that kicks off at 6:30pm GMT
I can see from doing a q eve * * that the nodes start off on schedule which is great - and they also report as Completed.
Even in the daily report they clearly state that they have completed, and I can see the data transfer to the primary disk pool.

However, when I do a 'q sess' on the TSM server I can see the nodes still holding a session and still tranferring data????
I quit the session as more often than not they're running into business hours. But when I quit the session they start again under a new one?

I have re-installed the latest TDP client and BA client fix pack, thinking it may have been something but it's still happening.

Any ideas folks?

I normally have a scheduled job run to backup my nodes, but I needed to run a backup manually today via the BA Client GUI. This is on a Win 2k3 server with TSM 6.1.2 and BA Client 6.1.

The node is setup to backup to the disk pool, which is only 70% utilized. However, I'm looking at the tape mounts, and one tape drive is being used for this particular node right now.

Why would this happen, instead of going direct to the disk pool like it was supposed to? ]]> Backup / Archive Discussion gtp2008 http://adsm.org/forum/showthread.php?t=20566 Include/exclude list http://adsm.org/forum/showthread.php?t=20565&goto=newpost Mon, 15 Mar 2010 17:40:28 GMT i have 20 windowsXP clients, i want to backup only the following files on each client micro soft office + mailbox+ adobe data only (ppt, xls,doc,... i have 20 windowsXP clients, i want to backup only the following files on each client micro soft office + mailbox+ adobe data only (ppt, xls,doc, docx, pst,pdf dbx) only and exclude the rest of files on the clients machine, how can implement this?

i'm doing some cleanup on my tsm servers and found out that there are many nodes which has not connected to the server since more then 180 days. i will consider them inactive,lock them and in succession delete them if nobody will ask for them.

my question is, will they count in PVU calculations or are locked nodes treaten in some other special obscure IBM'ish way?

Hi all,

Getting lots of ANE4005E errors in our Novell volumes.. seemingly all on files with extremely long filenames (the filename is long, and the path the file is in).
My question is, are there any restrictions anyone knows about with filename length?

These files are fine in Novell itself (ie can be opened, moved etc) but TSM errors with ANE4005E trying to back them up.

Novell version = 6.5 sp8
TSM version= 5.3.0.0

DDTRACE does not show anything since core dumps occur before hand.


Any one have any idea ? I am running an eval so I can't call IBM.

Most of... We are currently running 2 TSM servers version 5.4.4.1 with about 300 backup nodes connected (Windows, Linux, Informix, Oracle, ERP, AiX).

Most of our installed clients are running a 5.5 version client version, except for a few servers which are still running Solaris 8 with Informix 9.40. These are still running a 5.3.5.3 client version (both file client and Informix TDP). Unfortunately, we cannot upgrade neither the OS nor the Informix version on these systems until they will be obsoleted in about 2 years.

The above works fine without any issues, but due to a misconfiguration by our system integrator about 100 new nodes have been preloaded with a 6.1 TSM client version.

In order to stay compatible with IBM recommendations (http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docvie...id=swg21053218) we should therefore upgrade our servers to a 5.5 version, but we are unsure if the few older systems will still be supported. We can upgrade them easily to the latest 5.3.6.3 client, but any higher level is unsupported. Can anyone advise us on this ?
