Tivoli Storage Manager for HP-UX Quick Start


Migrating to Tivoli Storage Manager Version 4.1

You can install TSM 4.1 over a previous version of ADSM or TSM. This is called a "migrate install". Follow the instructions in this section to prevent loss of data from your system if you are migrating from a previous version.

The ADSM default installation directories have changed for Tivoli Storage Manager. If you have previously used Disaster Recovery Manager (DRM) to create a disaster recovery plan file, that file refers to path names that may no longer be valid. After you have installed Tivoli Storage Manager, you should back up your storage pools and database and create a new disaster recovery plan file. For the sequence and details of the procedure, see the Tivoli Disaster Recovery Manager chapter in the Administrator's Guide.


Attention

To return to ADSM or an earlier version of TSM, after a migrate install, you must have a full database backup from that original version.

Be aware of the results of returning to ADSM or an earlier version of TSM:

  • References to client files that were backed up, archived, or migrated to the Tivoli Storage Manager Version 4.1 server will be lost.
  • Some existing volumes may be overwritten or deleted during the Tivoli Storage Manager Version 4.1 operation. If so, client files that were on those volumes and that were migrated, reclaimed, moved (MOVE DATA command), or deleted (DELETE VOLUME command) may no longer be accessible to the earlier version of ADSM or TSM.
  • Definitions, updates, and deletions of TSM objects performed on the Version 4.1 server will be lost.

Before Performing a Migrate Install

This section describes some things you should consider before you perform a migrate install.

Performing a Migrate Install

  1. Stop the server if it is running by entering:
    Admin Command Line
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    |halt                                                                            |
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
  2. Remove the previous version server software by entering:
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    | swremove ADSM                                                                  |
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    Or
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    | swremove TSM                                                                   |
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
  3. Install the Tivoli Storage Manager Version 4.1 server software (see Installing Tivoli Storage Manager).
    Note:Until the new version is installed and any required licenses are re-registered (step 8), clients will not be able to connect to the server.
  4. To upgrade your existing TSM database, issue the following command:
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    |./dsmserv -upgradedb                                                            |
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    Note:Issue this command only one time. Do not include the UPGRADEDB parameter in any automated programs that start your server.
  5. Tivoli Storage Manager is shipped with sample command scripts that can be loaded into the database and run from an administrative client, administrative Web interface, or server console. They can also be included in administrative command schedules. The sample scripts, in scripts.smp, are primarily SELECT queries, but also include scripts that define volumes for and extend the database and recovery log and that back up storage pools.
    Note:The sample scripts may have been loaded when a previous version of ADSM or Tivoli Storage Manager was installed. If so, loading the sample scripts again at this point will overlay any existing scripts of the same name and any modifications made to those scripts will be lost.

    To load the sample scripts into the database, issue the following command:

    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    |./dsmserv runfile scripts.smp                                                   |
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
  6. To use the administrative Web interface:
    1. Your browser must have Java 1.1.6 support (for example, Netscape 4.06 or later and Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or later).
    2. The fileset TIVsm.server_webadmin must first be installed. This subcomponent includes the dsmserv.idl file and all required image files. This fileset is installed with the server if the entire server program is installed ('swinstall TIVsm').
    3. Configure the HTTP communication method in your server options file (dsmserv.opt).
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
      |commmethod          http                                                        |
      |   httpport         1580                                                        |
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    4. Issue this command to load the definition file:
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
      |./dsmserv runfile dsmserv.idl                                                   |
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
  7. Start the server by issuing the following command:
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    |./dsmserv                                                                       |
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    See Starting and Stopping the Server for more details.
  8. Reregister your licenses. See Registering Licenses. TIVsm.license fileset is required to register licenses. This fileset is installed when you install the TSM server package.
