Steps to take DB backup in TSM 6.3

Step 1: Create folder where you want to store the DB backup

mkdir E:\dbbackup

Step 2: update the device class ‘maximum volume capacity’ and ‘path to store files’

UPDATE DEVCLASS FILEDEV1 DIR=E:\DBBACKUP MAXCAP=50G SHARED=YES

Step 3: Take full backup of DB

backup db type=full devclass=filedev1
 
Error will generate:
            ANR2590E BACKUP DB failed - SET DBRECOVERY command has not been issued.
            ANS8001I Return code 3.

Step 4: Set device class for automatic DB backup to FILEDEV1

set dbrecovery filedev1

Step 5: Again take full backup of DB

backup db type=full devclass=filedev1
 
Now process will start and at the end it will show message like “Database Backup running in the BACKGROUND completed with completion state SUCCESS at xx:xx:xx.”

            There are following types of backup you can run. This parameter is optional. The default is

INCREMENTAL.

a)      Incremental

An incremental (or cumulative) backup image contains a copy of all database data that has changed since the last successful full backup operation was performed.

b)     Full

To run a full backup of the Tivoli Storage Manager database.

c)      DBSnapshot

To run a full snapshot database backup. The entire contents of a database are copied and a new snapshot database backup is created without interrupting the existing full and incremental backup series for the database.

Step 6: Take backup of Server sequential volume history information file

backup volhist f=e:\dbbackup\volhist.out wait=yes

Step 7: Take backup of Server device configuration information file

backup devconfig f=e:\dbbackup\devconfig.out wait=yes

Step 6: Delete sequential volume history entries

delete volhist t=dbb todate=today-2 wait=yes

  1. Why not define a seperate DBBACKUP device class?

    Here is what I did on TSM 7.1:



    ORB-TSM71> define devclass DBBACKUP devtype=file maxcapacity=50000m
    ANR2203I Device class DBBACKUP defined.

    ORB-TSM71> UPDATE DEVCLASS DBBACKUP DIR=G:\DBBACKUP MAXCAP=50G SHARED=YES

    ANR2205I Device class DBBACKUP updated.

    ORB-TSM71> set dbrecovery DBBACKUP
    ANR2782I SET DBRECOVERY completed successfully and device class for automatic DB backup is set to DBBACKUP.

    ORB-TSM71> backup db type=full devclass=DBBACKUP
    Process number 24 started.
    ANR2280I Full database backup started as process 24.

    ORB-TSM71> backup volhist f=g:\dbbackup\volhist.out wait=yes
    ANR2023E BACKUP VOLHISTORY: Extraneous parameter - WAIT.

    ORB-TSM71> backup volhist f=g:\dbbackup\volhist.out
    Do you wish to proceed? (Yes (Y)/No (N)) Y
    ANR2462I BACKUP VOLHISTORY: Server sequential volume history information was written to g:\dbbackup\volhist.out.
    ORB-TSM71> backup devconfig f=g:\dbbackup\devconfig.out
    Do you wish to proceed? (Yes (Y)/No (N)) Y
    ANR2393I BACKUP DEVCONFIG: Server device configuration information was written to g:\dbbackup\devconfig.out.
    ORB-TSM71> delete volhist t=dbb todate=today-2
    Do you wish to proceed? (Yes (Y)/No (N)) Y
    ANR2467I DELETE VOLHISTORY: 0 sequential volume history entries were successfully deleted.
