1. Yes. In ADSM client 3.1 there is  XBSA library libXapi.a with bsashr10.o
in it. In v3.7 and later it is sold separately and is called TDP for
Informix. For AIX 4.2.1 the latest client available is ADSM v3.1.
2. You do not need to reformat the hard drive to install new application.
Look at ADSM v3.1 client U468051.README.API.AIX42 file or TDP for Informix
Installation and User's Guide. The instructions there are very
straightforward.
Ensure the user (root or informix) starting the Informix server is having
DSMI_<something> API client environment variables set correctly.
Ensure environment variable BAR_BSALIB_PATH=<path_to_bsashr10.o> is
exported (ADSM) or parameter BAR_BSALIB_PATH is set in onconfig (TDP for
Informix)
Do not forget password access should be Generate and password has to be
initialized. In TDPI this can be done with tdpipswd command. onbar is
incapable to handle this TSM authentication information (yet. Maybe in IDS
9.4 we can see the DB2 command "backup to tsm", probably not).
sm_versions file needs only to be edited and Informix server
started/restarted. DO NOT use 'oninit -i' or there will be nothing left to
backup.
in case of problems file /tmp/bar_act.log can help if not overriden by
BAR_ACT_LOG parameter in onconfig.

Jason,

If you go to http://www.geocities.com/maury.geo/onbar.html you should find
all the information you need to correctly configure TSM to work with onbar.

One idea that springs to mind is to ensure your sysutils database is set-up
correctly so that onbar knows what storage manager it's looking for in the
first place. The easiest way to do that is to put the information in to
your sm_versions file but if I remember correctly this requires the
database instance to be reinitialised (oninit -i). If you can't
reinitialise then update the sysutils database directly.

I believe that bsashr10.o is part of TDP for Informix.

You can try the following command to add bsashr10.o to the ibsad001.a
library. If you do, it is at your own risk:

ar -q /usr/lib/ibsad001.a bsashr10.o

Subject: AIX , TSM and Onbar

I currently have the following error when invoking the OnBar utility.


exec():0509 - 036 Cannot load program onbar because of the following
errors:

              0509-150 Dependant module /usr/lib/ibsad001.a ( bsashr10.o )
could not be loaded

     0509 - 152 Member bsashr10.o is not found in archive.

I have installed the API on the new server and set up links etc.....

Current environment.

TSM 4.1.0 with API Loaded. Informix 7.24.UC5 - Newly built ADSM Server. AIX
4.2.1
ADSM 3.1.2.20 with API Loaded. As above. - Original Server. AIX 4.3.3

I have tried the ar -x on the library mentioned in the install notes. And
indeed bsashr10.o could not be found in the archive.

Would anyone be able to confirm the following:-

Under ADSM 3.1 did the API contain bsashr10.o ?
Was there a
For TSM 4.1 , do I need to install Tivoli Data Protection for Informix ? Is
bsashr10.o contained in TDP for Informix ?
Can you run Onbar without TDP for Informix under TSM 4.1 ?


Any help would be appreciated
