Hi All
I have the following dilemma..
We are using TDP for SQL version 2.2.1. We are backing up the data via the SAN
(LANFREE) using the storage agent.
The SQL metadata is going via the LAN to a diskpool on the TSM server. The
backups all go through well enough,
however when attempting a restore or trying to get fileinfo for SQL backups,
the metadata cannot get retrieved from the diskpool.I can however restore data
from tape lanfree.
If the data is migrated to tape and the waitfortapemount box is checked in the
GUI then the tape is mounted and the metadata retrieved.
But if I disable the LANFREE path in the dsm.opt file, then the metadata
filegroup info can be retrieved. IT cannot however retrieve the metadata from
diskpool and data from tape at the same time if LANFREE is enabled.
This is most annoying. I get this behaviour either via the GUI or using tdpsqlc
from the command line.
TSM server 5.1.1.6
TSM storage agent 5.1.1.6
TDP for SQL 2.2.1
Any help greatly appreciated
Kind Regards
