iSeries / Migrating Archived documents from TSM back to either System ASP or iASP.

« on: December 16, 2016, 09:15:18 AM »

Few years back, we had created Tivoli Storage Manager as a separate storage manger for our CMOD running on iSeries. IBM is not going to support TSM APIs anymore on iSeries.

We like to migrate all our archived documents from TSM back to whichever other storage we select on the same instances.

The size of of TSM storage is about 16 TB over 20 instances.

What are our options for migrating to either ASP or iASP or any other storage using same instances?

iSeries / Creating TSM Storage and Node Sets in OD 9.5 iSeries

« on: December 07, 2016, 11:40:01 AM »

When CMOD was under V7R1 8.x.x.x, we had introduced TSM Storage and we used following QSH command to add storage set and storage node:

arsadm set -h ONDDEV -a a -n OD_7D -A a -N OD_7D -T n -i OD_7D -w od_7d -d 'Tivoli Storage Manager' -D 'TSM Node' -v
             

Now after upgrading to 9.5 OS V7R2 since arsadm no longer supported according to documentation, I am using following command with XML file but I am getting an error.

arsxml add -h ONDTEST -i /home/sa006/addtsmstorageset.xml -v

where my XML file looks like as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
 <onDemand xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
     xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="/QIBM/ProdData/OnDemand/bin/xml/ondemand.xsd">
  <storageSet name="OD_7D" description="Tivoli Storage Manager" >
  <node name="OD_7D" description="TSM Node" server="*ONDEMAND"
     logon="OD_7D" password="od_7d" loadData="Yes" accessMethod="TSM" />
  </storageSet>
</onDemand>

And when I run my QSHELL I get following error:

 arsxml add -h ONDTEST -i /home/sa006/addtsmstorageset.xml -v                                                           
 ARS6822I Attempting login for userid '' on server 'ONDTEST' ...
