Joe,

When do you run your inactivate logs?

We run the compact on Friday
Sat and Sun -fulls
Inactive logs- after the fulls complete
Incrementals (Mon-Friday)

All the dbids shouldn't have changed in 1 or 2 days, and I am only getting
zinged on Monday Incrementals(which is really a full), not the rest of the
weekday schedule.


Our compact runs on Fridays for a few hours, then the full on Saturday(1st
email server), and Sundays(2nd email server), then the incrementals
(Mon-Fri)- and the Mon night incremental is catching all the databases
again, but not on Tues, Wed, etc.   Also, the inactive of the old trans
logs after the full backups completed on Sat and Sun.    We used to the
run the compact during full backup,  but changed it for 'best practice' to
Fridays instead of during the full backup.

The incremental backup is backing up all databases that have changed DBID
since the full.
Questions:
Is there some process running after the full that is changing the DBID?
Does this also backup all 1800 on Tuesday?

We had this scenario one week and luckily figured it out quickly. For us,
the full ran Saturday, then on Sunday they ran a compress on all
databases.  The compress changes the DBID.  Monday incremental caught all
databases again.  Our cure was to run database cleanup routines on
Saturday, and do a full backup on Sunday.  This has a slight risk if there
is a problem during a cleanup routine, we might have to restore to
previous Sunday and roll forward the entire week, but this is very rare
(we haven't needed this yet.).

Domino /TSM Question






TSM Server 5.3.2.2
TSM O/S 5.3 M 3


OS: Windows 2000 Adv SP4 Current Hotifex
Domino:  6.5.4 FP 2
TSM Client: 5.2.3.4
TDP Client:5.1.5.1


Does the TDP incremental backup utilize the same information as a the full
backup to TSM, for example the date and time, DB ID?    The problem we
noticed is that we run the full email db backups on Saturdays and Sundays,
then Monday-Friday night we run the incremental backups.   Which instead
backing up a few ids, it's backing up all the 1800 mail databases all over
again on Monday only(another full) when in fact the full backup ran
successful on Sunday.

Domino Compact - Runs Friday night
Full Backups- Sat and Sunday
Mon -Friday - Incremental Backups  *I understand that there really is no
such thing as an incremental backup in Domino
