hi Vicente,

Please try to shorten the mgmt class name like Phillip has suggested.  If
still doesn't work,

1.  please turn on the API tracing.  Use api and api_detail flags and get
me the trace file.

2.  please get the output of your copy group values of all the mgmt class
in your domain that your TDPO node is registered with?  To obtain the copy
group values, from admin client command issue:
tsm: TSMSERV1> q copy <your domain> * * f=d

3.  are you using default TDPO config file name from the install
directory?  Because, in your note you mention TDPO.CONF as your TDPO
config file.  So I am not quite sure you are using the file name as
tdpo.opt or tdpo.conf.

regards,
Thiha

>>Hello Thiha.

>>Thanks for your help.
>>I'm still stuck with this issue. I have followed your instructions but
it
>>doesn't work. Whenever I start a script to backup the archivelog files,
it

>>These are my configuration files:

>>TDPO.CONF
>>  DSMI_ORC_CONFIG         /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/dsm.opt
>>  DSMI_LOG /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/dsierror.log
>>  TDPO_NODE               dsiaja02_ora
>>  TDPO_PSWDPATH           /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle

>>DSM.OPT
>>  SErvername    dsiaja04

>>DSM.SYS
>>  SErvername  dsiaja04
>>  nodename dsiaja02_ora
>>    COMMmethod         TCPip
>>    TCPPort            1500
>>    TCPServeraddress   dsiaja04a

>>    passwordaccess prompt
>>    inclexcl /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/inclexcl

>>INCLEXCL
>>  include /adsmorc/.../*.arc rman_archive_log

>>The script that I use is:
>>  run{
>>     allocate channel 'tsm0' type 'sbt_tape';
>>     sql "alter system archive log current" ;
>>     backup archivelog all format '%d_arch_%U' delete input;

>>Is there anything wrong?

>>Thank you for your cooperation !!

>>>You can use 'include' option to bind with different management class.
It

>>>little bit differently than what is documented.

>>>I assume that you are using different domain for your TDPO backups.
Let's

>>>you don't have to do anything for your database backups.  As for the
>>>archive log file, let's say you have the pattern "log_archive_format =
>>>arch%t_%s.dbf" in your init.ora file. In your include definition file,
add

>>>include /adsmorc/.../arch*       tapemgmt

>>>This will bind the archive logs to 'tapemgmt' class.


>>>If you don't use different domain for your TDPO backups and/or mgmt
class
>>>pointing to disk pool is not the default, you can add another line in
your

>>>include /adsmorc/.../arch*       tapemgmt
>>>include /adsmorc/.../*           diskmgmt


>>>Make sure that these statements appear in the exact order.
