Objet : Re: Backup reporting: SUMMARY TABLE ISSUE IS FOUND
The fix for this is at these levels (per apar doc):
Apply patch 4.2.2.5, 5.1.1.1 or higher, available through
Tivoli Web Page to resolve this problem, or fixing
PTF when available.
Here's a blerb from my etr/pmr (problem ticket):
The APAR you are referring to is IC34462. This issue is specific to
the summary table not being updated when client sessions are severed and
the session has to be re-established. This APAR is currently open, but
I have added you to the interested parties list for this APAR. There
was also another APAR (IC33455) which addressed an issue with the
summary table simply not being updated properly during client backups.
Here's the actual 2 apars...the doc on the problem/issue:
FYI Thanks Tim

ERROR DESCRIPTION:
When a backup session is lost and then reopened again
successfully (e.g. MSG ANS1809E can be seen in the
dsmsched.log), not all values in the SUMMARY TABLE of the TSM
server will show the correct backup statistics. The BYTES field
shows in that case a value of 0, while e.g the fields EXAMINED
and AFFECTED show correct values.

################################################################
It seems that when a session is lost and then reopened again,
the new session descriptor does not hold the value for the bytes
transfered so far anymore.
.
This problem was seen on a TSM AIX and NT 5.1.1.4 server, but
maybe all TSM server levels will be affected which inlcude the
fix for APAR IC33455.
.
Recreation:
Unplug the network cable during a backup session => session lost
Plug the network cable in again => backup session restarts
Then check the SUMMARY TABLE for the BYTES field
LOCAL FIX:
Do not believe the values reported in the SUMMARY TABLE. Check
the DSMSCHED.LOG or the ACTLOG for the correct backup
statistics.

ERROR DESCRIPTION:
Found on TSM Version 4.2.2.0
Other Versions Affected TSM Server V5.1
OSs Effected All (recreated on WIN, AIX, Solaris)
Happens with all TSM Client levels (tested 4.x thru 5.1 clients
Impact: medium
When backing up to a V4.2..2.0 or V5.1.0 TSM server the
summary table is not being updated to show the correct amount
of bytes received. In the older versions of the server the
bytes would display the amount of data received,however with
versions 5.1.0 and 4.2.2.0 the bytes received is
reflecting 0 bytes. This is a problem for customers that
verify backups with scripts querying the SUMMARY table:
..
"select * from SUMMARY where ACTIVITY = 'BACKUP' "
