Watch out for changes in behaviour of SANDISCOVERY option as you upgrade. I was caught going from 5.5.2 to 5.5.3. The default value has changed ...
Have Fun !

Ok, so I'm configuring SQL backups for my customer. No brainer really, just a repeat of a hundred similar configurations I've implemented before.
TSM BA Client 5.4.2.0
TSM for Databases (SQL) 5.4 (so 5.2.1.0 really)
Anyway, I fire up the SQL GUI and attempt to display TSM server information -...
Hi
TCPClientAddress is only relevant if you're running the client scheduler in "server prompted" mode, and then it works in one of two ways:
(i) client can initiate sessions
In this case, when the schedule engine starts on the client, it contacts the TSM server and reports the value of...
Hi
Have you considered using the device class parameter "mountlimit" to throttle the number of drives that different entities use?
No reason not to create multiple device classes for the same VTL - just means a slightly more complex storage pool setup as you'd need minimum of one per device...
Hi
Check out redp-4340-00 "Integrated Virtual Ethernet Adapter - Technical Overview and Introduction". Seems to be more commonly referred to as the Host Ethernet Adapter (HEA)
The HEA is required in all Power 6 System P configurations.
Choices are 2-port 1Gb, 4-port 1Gb, 2-port 10Gb...
Hi
It's possible to implement a level of DR using "TSM Server-to-server virtual volumes" whereby the "copy stgpool" operation on one TSM server writes to primary stg on the other, and vice versa. It's not trivial to set up and I wouldn't want to try to advise on how to configure it in a forum...
Hi
Take a look at "query nodedata" to see which volumes in which storage pools are used by your nodes (or collocation groups).
If you want to go down to the level of detail of mapping node filespaces to individual volumes, then you will need a select statement against the VOLUMEUSAGE table...
I haven't seen one, but I sat 223 recently and the material I used was helpful. There's a Redbook for test 222, plus the AIX6 and Power6 material is useful too.
Have Fun !

What about:
tapeutil -f /dev/rmt0 density
I lifted that out of the user guide for Atape ...

There are rafts and rafts of notes out there concerning the kinds of errors you mentioned, and updating the client code always comes out on top as being a Good Thing to Do.
What happens if you try to backup the System State / System Services individually?

Hi
If remember rightly, Ignite can provide an excellent BMR solution and could tie in with TSM nicely.
Ignite can be used to perform OS-installation of HP-UX using software packages on an Ignite server; upon completion, custom scripts would kick off TSM client restore processes.
Very tidy :)...
Hi
I found this:
http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=663&uid=swg21053646
which might help?
There is also a note right at the start of Ch6 that tells us to ensure that the ACSLS client daemon is running on the TSM server - did you do that part?
HTH
Have Fun !

Hi
StorageTek ? That would be a TSM "ACSLS" library, wouldn't it, rather than a SCSI library? I've not worked with ACSLS libraries in TSM, but the Admin Guide for 5.4 (Linux) gives what looks like a fairly detailed step-by-step procedure. Chapter 6, p112 in my copy. If you take a look at...
OK, so the first thing to confirm is whether or not you're happy with the DOMAIN that TSM is using. "all-local" means that the TSM client will attempt to backup all local drives, plus the SYSTEM OBJECT (Is this a W2K server?).
If there is a drive that you don't want to include for backup...
Hi
OK - you need to confirm whether or not the client is actually picking up the option set.
To do this, open an interactive client session with "dsmc", then issue the command "query inclexcl". This will produce a list of *all* include-exclude statements that will apply to your client, listed...
Hi

and search for this number: 1219345
TSM for Mail 5.4.2 is the latest available agent for Domino, but you'd need to confirm that your version of Domino is supported by the software before you upgrade.

Hi
Careful - reorganising the TSM DB is a non-trivial, disruptive task, that could take >24 hours to complete. The end result is a database with a greater proportion of free space in contiguous lumps. TSM 5.3 introduced the "estimate dbreorgstats" command, which you run against a (quiet)...
I've come across this. Sorry, can't remember the APAR offhand, but it was fixed by an update ...
