That sounds like a lot of work. :)

Sorry I wasn't clear...by "active space used" do you mean its a count of storage used by the active files?

Good point. Thanks

Does this query only pull Active files? If not, that's what I'm looking for if it's even possible. My first run of the command seems high.

Thanks in advance!

We are wondering the same thing...

Ok, that makes sense then because the diskpool is fairly close to being full.

TSM 5.5.6 on AIX 5.3

I have a number of client sessions in a MediaW state. If I do a f=d on the session for those nodes it shows that it's waiting for a tape in storage pool TAPEPOOL. However,...

Glad to help. Let us know how it goes.

Give TBMR from cristie a shot...works well from my experience. www.cristie.com

Thanks...also performed a reboot. Errpt did show some tape drive reservation conflicts after the reboot which I found interesting as we recently made some changes per our consultant on that front to...

Running the command 'errpt' as root. And I have no new entries since 6/13.

Thanks rmazzon, I'll give it a shot.

Unfortunately no due to the sheer size. Also, it's not being run every night and we're still seeing the pinning.



All but two are 10 GB.

The largest of the bunch goes straight to tape(exchange), the others go to a diskpool large enough to handle a night's worth of backups...a scheduled migration to tape is then run later on outside of...

Server has not been rebooted recently. Local disk appears to be fine, however my AIX knowledge is a bit limited. I do know the nodes that send large data(mostly Exchange and SQL flat files as we...

Actually the DB is mirrored on local disk. Primary pool for the majority of the systems is SAN-based.

Fixing the failed paths has not fixed my problem, unfortunately.

Ended up using the third post from this link...

Hopefully this helps us.

Do you recall what the resolution was for your path failed errors?

I'll check out the path failed errors, thanks.

500+ nodes

Primary pool for the great majority of these systems is disk and it does have room for a night's worth of incrementals at least when split up across different nights.

Disk pool is on...

Pretty much at a loss here. I think I've tried just about everything but obviously haven't hit the nail on the head yet.

Thanks

Running TSM 5.5.3 on AIX

Running DB backups constantly just to keep the recovery log from filling. "Show logpinned" usually says its pinned by the currently running DB backup or if I catch it at...

If only it were that easy...check out this link regarding IBM's PVU licensing. Make sure to read the box labeled "PVU full-capacity and sub-capacity licensing" closer to the bottom.

Got it, thanks.

I recently changed our DB backup strategy to send fulls to an onsite location and then subsequently send a DB snapshot to tape for offsiting. However, my DB snapshots are not getting sent offsite...

Thanks for the replies...I was able to negotiate for an answer that fell within my activity log retention period.

Looking to answer an audit question. Client logs are long gone. Just needing to show that a certain server backed up successfully.

Thanks for the replies...haven't had time to look for the random checkins after ejects or virtual I/O and we're running on AIX 5.3.

The next checkin job doesn't run for a few hours after. I'm thinking that its a function of the library itself.

Our operators are saying that they can't always get to the tapes in a timely manner when the tapes eject and therefore miss the tapes before they get sucked back in. Is there a way to extend the...

Thanks for the info...I've never run the numbers personally, but I think we gain some savings back on the NetApp by being able to use standard ethernet NICs and switches versus building out a robust...

Looks like FCoE is supported out of the box now, as well.

It has been awhile since I've seen an EMC demo...my bad. It only makes sense that they would offer that. How long have they been offering all of the protocols out of the box?

And maybe I'm...

Just so we're on the same page...we back-end our VMware farm with NAS-based NFS volumes. On the front, we've decided to scale-up vs. out using x3850s from IBM thus saving on licensing because we...

We use NAS almost exclusively in our shop with NetApp as the vendor. CIFS shares, a handful of iSCSI for Windows servers, FC for systems where Security doesn't want us using ethernet for data...

This might be a little rough around the edges but here we go...
- Log in to your DocAve GUI
- Go to Data Protection>Custom Backup Builder>Granular or Platform Backup
- Click Logical Device, say OK...

We have it running...we went straight to AvePoint for the purchase and support. And I know that you can get demo licenses from them.

As for the mgmt class, we have it set to 14 versions for...

Makes sense, thanks.

We also have TSM manage encryption and have had no issues.

Does IBM count systems that are no longer being actively backed up?

We run exports in parallel but not quite in the same fashion as you will be attempting to do. Our exports are broken out by domain so I'm not sure how TSM will handle your job.

To run in...

Others can(and probably will :)) correct me but TSM unfortunately is not SAN to SAN replication aware and not supported the last I heard. In otherwords, the DB cannot keep track of data that it...
