Thanks David - I ran the second command which provided me with a report.
However the figures in that report match what I already receive from the query
auditocc command.
This makes me think that there is something wrong with the data that it is
reporting on. There are two SQL database servers for which the reported data
appears to be obviously wrong.
For one of them the reported primary storage pool data has increased over the
past 4 weeks from 2.3Tb, to 4.5Tb, to 7.0Tb and now this week it is 9.1Tb.
We have not increased the number of backups kept, and we have not added any new
SQL databases.
When I start the DP for SQL client and add up all the active and inactive
databases which I can restore from, the total amount of data is 2.3Tb.
On another SQL server, the reported primary storage pool data has increased
over the past 4 weeks from 310Gb, to 610Gb, then 950Gb and now it is 1300Gb.
When I start the DP for SQL client and add up all the active and inactive
databases which I can restore from, the total amount of data is around 310Gb.
It is as if each week the amount of primary storage pool data is being added to
rather than replaced. However this is only happening for SQL database servers.
For other non-database servers the amount of reported primary storage pool data
has been stable.
Where is this the information for this reported primary storage pool data kept?
Is it on our TSMADMIN server somewhere?
Thanks & Regards
Paul

Paul,
You are right. All of my data is in primary storage pools so I no longer worry
about copy pools. Back when I had copy pools, my storage pool names would
indicate whether it was primary or copy pool. Can you mask on pool name to
distinguish between primary and copy pool?
If so,
select node_name,sum(reporting_mb) as "TOTAL_OCCUPANCY" from occupancy group by
node_name where stgpool_name like '%NAME MASK%'c
Alternatively,
select node_name,sum(reporting_mb) as "TOTAL_OCCUPANCY" from occupancy where
stgpool_name in (select stgpool_name from stgpools where POOLTYPE='PRIMARY' )
group by node_name
David

Thanks. I ran this command and it ran successfully and provided me with a list
of totals.
However they are a lot higher than what is reported by my query auditocc
command.
Does it total just the primary storage or all storage pools?
I am just interested in primary storage to keep track of storage used as we
have the unified terabyte licensing for TSM.
Thanks & Regards
Paul

Perhaps the following query would give you better data:
select node_name,sum(reporting_mb) as "TOTAL_OCCUPANCY" from occupancy group by
node_name

To keep track of our primary storage usage, on a weekly basis I run the
following command:
query auditocc pooltype=primary
For one of the nodes - an SQL server - it is reporting that the backup storage
used is 7Tb.
However knowing the size of the databases on that server and the number of
copies of each backup we keep, I believe that to be incorrect.
I started the DP for SQL client on that server, clicked on Restore Data, and
then selected all backups (both active and inactive).
I then added up the size of each backup (both active and inactive) and it added
up to 2.2Tb.
How could there be such a huge difference between each total?
Thanks & Regards
