> I would like to ask ADSM users if many are happy with a product or support.

> A few month ago we installed ADSM on our SP2 machine, but we can't call

> Very often we have tape drive problems, sometimes these errors not in errpt
> but on activity log as OP=WRITE or READ with sense=00.00.00.00.
> These errors terminate process, after 20 GB of data already processed.
>
> Many features which in ADSM books or README files don't work, and I am
> getting fallacious answer, for example, DSMSCHED.LOG pruning will happen
> only after scheduler will be restarted, even IBM suggested to include SCHLOGR
> (days),[s n] in DSM.SYS. So why bother with this parameters, if our goal
> to do backup with centralize scheduler and automate backup as much as
> possible.
>
> Sometimes ADSM create duplicate names in filespaces and refusing to
> backup filesystem from clients nodes because of it.
>
> When we made marketing research of backup product, many IBM representatives
> claimed that in 4q 1994 we will be able to backup ORACLE online, now nobody
> even mentioning if they continue working on this interface, just referring
> to third companies.
>
> I have eggs on my face for recommending implementing ADSM.
>
> My questions are how to correct these problems, to whom to call to get
> quick response and resolutions, often we are waiting week to talk with
> level 2 and other week to get results.
> How people backing up 150 GB of ORACLE data base, knowing it have reliable
> backup in case of restore.

> IBM people, welcome to reply.
