dbbackup tapes expiration
2001-03-30 09:23:01
Dear colleagues,
my tsm server is eating cartridges for db backup like an elephant. I use only
full db backups (max db size is estimated to 6GB and I use DLT IV tapes). Every
time I run dbbackup it picks up a new scratch cart. I have a small library (IBM
3502-r14 14 slots 2 DLT drives barcode reader) and I wonder how I could make
best use of it for backup purposes.
I also couldn't figure out how to check in the cleaning cart. Every time I try
to checkin the cart manually I get the error: Library full. When I use checkin
search=yes the cleaning cart is not seen, although it is seen from library
control panel. And actually why I can't checkin volumes manually?
Suppose I wan to do a massive client restore. (Some fool get a virus and had his
HDD formatted). I have a lot of volumes in the overflow location. I defined
collocation for DLT storage pool. Can I pre-checkin needed volumes to the
library and then start restore? How?
I hope these are not very big questions for you.
Regards,
Anton Gubarkov.
