Hi,
do you use the "Cluster Name" to backup the cluster resources or do you use
"Cluster Resource Names" as node names for TSM?
e.g
Cluster name hello
resource names res1 being E: K:
                                 res2 being F: L:
If you have as node name hello than you would get Fliespaces
hello \\hello\E$
hello \\hello\K$
hello \\hello\F$
hello \\hello\L$
Now if you state Clusternode=yes you would backup Cluster Node hello.

When you backup the resource using node name res1 and res2
you would get
res1 \\hello\E$
res1 \\hello\K$
res2 \\hello\F$
res2 \\hello\L$

for that you would need 2 sched's that would garantee that the resources are
split.


Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best Regards

Hi,

I have several windows 2000 clusters (with varying hardware) that exhibit a
strange behavior.  I set them up using the info from the windows client
guide.  I included domain entries in the dsm.opt file for each domain that
the resource group should backup.  The problem occurs on the Cluster Group
resource group.  If this group is on the same node as any other resource
group, it backs up the other domains as well.  For example:

2 Node Cluster

Node 1
    Cluster Group - Q:
    Resource Group 1 - E: K:
Node 2
    Resource Group 2 - F: L:

In this scenario it would backup E: and K: though they were not stated in
the dsm.opt file.  It would also backup Q: as intended.  Is there a
parameter I am missing?

This is the dsm.opt file:

COMMMETHOD TCPIP
TCPBUFFSIZE 63
TCPNODELAY Yes
TCPPORT 1500
TCPSERVERADDRESS USBMD31
TCPWINDOWSIZE 32

ERRORLOGNAME q:\tivoli\tsm\errorlog.log
ERRORLOGRETENTION 10,D
PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE
REPLACE PROMPT
SCHEDLOGNAME q:\tivoli\tsm\dsmsched.log
SCHEDLOGRETENTION 10,D
CLUSTERNODE YES
NODENAME NCBMD6I

DATEFORMAT 1
LANGUAGE AMENG
NUMBERFORMAT 1
TIMEFORMAT 1

DOMAIN Q:

The client is 5.2.0.1 and the server is 5.2.0.0.  Any help appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
