By default, the target of the DDR replication is read-only. You can either
mark all you volumes in TSM read-only or you could create a snapshot of the
target and use that for TSM. You can always break the replication in a true
D/R.

Rick,

I have had the same problem reading from replicated Data domain file devices
on my DR server.  Update the file volumes to read-only.  I run a macro to do
this, takes 10-25 minutes.

Before logging a call I thought I would see if anyone else has seen this
issue?



System details:

TSM Server 5.5..5.2, two replicating Data Domain DD880's.

Backup data and TSM DB's are replicated from production data center to DR
site.

Cold stand-by TSM servers are recovered using replicated DB backups.



Issue:

During disaster recovery restore testing client files fail to restore due to
a mount failed/access denied issue on the virtual volume (file device).



ANR9999D Thread<44> issued message 9999 from:

ANR8501E System return code 6 received opening volume

\\192.168.135.4\BACKUP\TSM\F4\000186DD.BFS with file name

ANR1401W Mount request denied for volume

\\192.168.135.4\BACKUP\TSM\F4\000186dd.bfs with LastError(5): Access is

denied.



I have noticed that it only appears to be an issue with accessing volumes
that are in a state of "filling".



The restore mounts other "full" and "DB" volumes with no problems.



The TSM servers in production and DR use a local admin account (windows) to
run the TSM Server service, and the account is duplicated on the DD880's
with admin rights.



Thanks....
