First you need to define TSM to CA-1 as an External Data Manager (EDM).
This procedure is described in the Systems Programmer book for CA-1 under
the heading of define DFHSM. Same procedure, different names.
Install the CA-1 delivered version of the ARCTVEXT.
In your DSMSERV options file code DELETIONEXIT(ARCTVEXT).
Now in TSM, create a device class that will be used to create your offsite
media (copypool/dbbackups). For the PREFIX= give it something like TSM.OFF
(you only have 8-chars). Create your copy storage pool(s) referencing this
device class.
In your CA-1 vault pattern list add the TSM.OFF.** to you list of volumes
for offsite movement.
You will need to add a step to your batch job used to create your vault
list in CA-1 to update TSM. You should schedule this for a time when TSM is
not doing any backup storage pool to copypool processes. If TSM is using a
tape, it won't change the access to OFFSITE, but CA-1 will flag the tape as
needing to go offsite. The librarian will pull the tape, but TSM still
thinks it's available. So you may get a mount request for a volume that's
offsite.
You're database backups just reference the device class for the offsite
PREFIX and CA-1 takes care of the rest.
If you have DRM licensed, you can do this with some MOVE DRMEDIA commands.
If not, just some UPD VOL commands. Here's what I use. It's actually a
script that I RUN from an admin schedule.
/*----------------------------------------- ------------------------*/
/* THIS SCRIPT IS USED TO CHANGE THE ACCES S MODE OF ALL EMPTY */
/* OFFSITE VOLUMES TO ONSITE, AND ALL ONSI TE COPYPOOL TAPES */
/* WITH A STATUS OF FILLING OR FULL. */
/* */
/* UPDATE THE COPYPOOL2 STORAGE POOL TAPES .... */
/*----------------------------------------- ------------------------*/
UPDATE VOLUME * ACC=READW WHERESTGPOOL=COPYPOOL2 WHEREACCESS=OFFSITE
WHERESTATUS=EMPTY
UPDATE VOLUME * ACC=OFFSITE WHERESTGPOOL=COPYPOOL2 WHEREACCESS=READW,READO
WHERESTATUS=FIL,FUL
When volumes go scratch, TSM notifies CA-1 via the DELETIONEXIT(ARCTVEXT)
to return the volume to scratch status. Then CA-1 will schedule these
scratch tapes that are offsite to be brought back.
