[ADSM-L] Restoring LARGE server
2009-12-09 08:52:15
Trying to restore a LARGE Windows server. Over 40M objects. Client is 6.1
As you can imagine, we have had to use the journal as well as
MEMORYEFFICIENT to perform backups.
If I read correctly, MEMORYEFFICIENT is ONLY for backups. Obviously the
journal is of no value since the restore is to a new machine/location.
The other issue gumming up the works is that the backups have been failing
(drive array problems/corruption) and thus TSM has marked almost everything
as "inactive". A first, NQR restore (just selected the drive) attempt only
restored 90GB (of 600G+) before "finishing successfully". But when I
choose to pick inactive as well as active, the NQR is disabled.
The server transfers down 1GB of metadata before the client chokes on
"insufficient memory".
So, how am I supposed to restore this many objects, besides picking one
directory at a time, which is not to say that some directories are large
enough to also cause a "not enough memory" situation?
Suggestions on how to handle this?
