HOWTO: TSM Server Quickinst
2015-10-04 17:12:12
I whipped this up because I run into so many people who want to figure
it out on their own, but really are just lost in the slew of new
concepts. Here is a basic list of things to do when setting up your tsm
server the first time. Suggestions and corrections are welcome.

Basic In-Order TSM Server Setup Checklist
Basic In-Order TSM Server Setup Checklist
-----------------------------------------
Physical Installation:
Physical Installation:
Install physical devices
Power on system
Install o/s maintenance
Install tsm server and drivers
Define devices to the O/S
349x, 357x, 358x and 359x use Atape/IBMTAPE/lmcpd
all others use TSM drivers
Make a larger database and log:
define dbvolume (make space)
define dbcopy (mirror elsewhere)
extend db (tell tsm to use the new space)
define logv (make space)
define logc (mirror elsewhere)
extend log (tell tsm to use the new space)
define spacetrigger (auto-grow db and log)
define dbbackuptrigger (only if SET LOGMODE ROLLFORWARD)
Ensure proper licensing:
register license (see the server/bin directory)
Storage setup inside TSM:
define library (top level of tape storage)
define devclass (points to a library)
define drive (points to a library)
define stg (points to a device class)
define vol (points to a devclass and storage pool)
label libvol (prepares a tape for TSM use)
checkin libv (makes tape show up in Q LIBVOL)
For Policy/Node Information:
define domain (top level of policy information)
define policyset (contained within a policy domain)
define mgmtclass (contained within policyset)
define copygroup T=BACK (contained within a management class)
define copygroup T=ARCH (contained within a management class)
activate policy (only one policyset active per domain)
register node (belongs to a policy domain)
Typical Storage Pool Hierarchy:
Copygroup "destination" is disk pool
Disk pool "NEXT" is tape pool
An extra tape pool of type "COPYPOOL"
Other Important Things to Look Into:
Administrator's Guide, Working With Network of TSM Servers
Virtual Volumes
Library Sharing
Administrator's Guide, Chapter 1: Introduction
Overview of storage hierarchy and TSM concepts
Administrator's Guide, Protecting The Server
Protection and recovery of the system
Administrator's Guide, Disaster Recovery Manager
Integrated, licensed tool for server protection
DEFINE SCHED T=C
client backup schedules
DEFINE SCHED T=A
server administrative schedules (don't overlap these)
BACKUP STG (sync up copy pool)
UPDATE STG RECLAIM=50 (reclaim free space from tapes)
UPDATE STG RECLAIM=100 (turn off reclaimation)
UPDATE STG HI=0 LO=0 (migrate the disk pool to tape)
UPDATE STG HI=90 LO=70 (migrate only during overflow)
BACKUP DB (TSM database is critical to server function)
In all procedures WATCH FOR ERRORS.
